Sam Curran to Leus du Plooy, out Caught by Hasan Nawaz!! Curran comes back and sends back the set batter. du Plooy would be disappointed though because this was in the slot and he's picked out the fielder. Pace on delivery, lands right in the slot and du Plooy is deep in the crease, whips it with his bottom hand but gets more height than distance, Nawaz comes in from deep mid-wicket and takes a good catch. Good knock but the Capitals would have wanted du Plooy to bat a bit longer. Leus du Plooy c Hasan Nawaz b Sam Curran 54(44) [4s-6 6s-1]
