Pakistan vs South Africa, 2nd Test - Live Cricket Score, Commentary

Maharaj to Sajid Khan, out Stumped!! Sajid Khan couldn't control the urge of a tailender big hit. Stepped out, made room as well to go inside out.

Maharaj to Rizwan, no run, floated full delivery outside off, driven to extra cover. There's an appeal from Verreynne for something. He is having an intense chat with umpire Sharfuddoula but he is not interested. The replay shows that after playing the shot, Rizwan dislodged the bails with his bat and then started to walk towards the dressing room. Looks like umpire Sharfuddoula called 'over' before it happened and that meant Rizwan was safe. That's Stumps on Day 3
