Fielding at gully, Amla dived for a catch from Australian batsman Brad Haddin in the 32nd over, but only managed to get the finger on it.

Amla immediately went off the field to receive medical attention.

Team management said Amla's finger could be 'put back in' and he would be fine to bat during South Africa's second innings.
