Tom Curran to Fortuin, out Caught by Adil Rashid!! England win by 2 runs. Keep the series alive. That was a slower ball down leg, Fortuin looked to scoop it but ended up finding the fielder at short fine leg.Fortuin c Adil Rashid b Tom Curran 0(1)
Over
Tom Curran to Pretorius, 2 runs, I think Pretorius is in. But then it was a flat throw and the keeper hardly wasted any time to whip the bails off. Pretorius flew in literally and the bat was in the air for a little time before coming down to be dragged into the crease. Hardly a frame separating out from not out but has been deemed not out. Was a fuller ball and Pretorius knocked it away into the on-side. There was some hesitation and hence the dive was needed

That was a widish delivery and Pretorius got enough bat on it to send it away 19.26Tom Curran to Pretorius, SIX, shorter in length, slower and allowed time for Pretorius to get on the back foot and smoke it across the line. Big hit. Huge hit indeed under pressure. Pretorius is up and chuffed. 9 need

Tom Curran to Pretorius, no run, slower ball first up and Pretorius was through with his shot too early. Misses it and it is a precious dot ball. 15 off 5 balls
