AND AGAIN! What a start today. Full on middle and leg, the ball pitches, moves back in and takes a thick inside edge of Dhawan's bat again, and then onto the back pad. Four replays in four balls

maiden from Morris. If SA wanted a good start, they have it. And it's not like Dhawan didn't try to score. A low full toss is bunted to cover. Excellent start.

139 kph, plumb in front this time! No review from Rohit and that's SA's first. This has been some start from the hosts. They have been bowling it full, enticing some swing, and the conditions haven't let them down. Pitched full outside off, it seams back in prodigiously to hit Rohit in front of middle and leg. A golden...

aargh, it's worked. A low full toss around middle and off, Dhawan comes down, meets the ball before it pitches, looks to hit the ball through mid-on, but gets it too straight. The bat handle may have turned in his hands, the full toss may have taken him by surprise. One way or another, Dhawan has picked out mid-on!
