MAN OF THE MATCH

A no-brainer really, Kagiso Rabada is the man of the match. 

10 Jul 2015

POST MATCH PRESENTATION

Mashrafe: We could have scored at least 200, maybe 220 then would have been a different game, we kept losing wickets. If someone from opposition gets a hat-trick you go on the back foot. Wicket was pretty good, we can't give that excuse and we need to come back strongly in the next match. Anyone would bat first here, we can't make an excuse after batting and it was a good wicket to bat on. We just didn't bat well.

Amla: Kagiso was outstanding and to restrict them to 160 was wonderful. We've got wonderful players, we are very fortunate. Obviously we miss AB but we have players to rally around. Maybe we gave an extra few runs in the end but we batted pretty well.

10 Jul 2015

WICKET!

Du Plessis 6* (14)

10 Jul 2015

FOUR!

Now De Kock advances and plays and orthodox cover drive to the boundary! Beautiful shot!

10 Jul 2015

De Kock is really struggling at the moment, he is employing a few wild swings to try and hit his way into form. No luck so far!

10 Jul 2015

Al Hasan immediately beats the outside edge of Du Plessis's bat. Batting conditions are not very easy at present.
