    Malinga to Peterson
    Peterson does it for SA with a edge past the slip. Fullish, outside off stump, Peterson drives, gets a outside edge and it runs down to third man boundary. SA have won. They nearly choked but have pulled it off. Peterson jumps in the air, pumps his fist and then smashes the stumps down at the other end. Immediately apologises! What a cracker of a game!

    Malinga to Peterson
    Swing and a miss. What a cracking game this has been. Full and just outside off stump, slants away, he has a drive, but inside the line and the ball rushes past the outside edge.

    Vaas to Langeveldt
    Beaten again. Another one that angles away from Langeveldt who pushes at it, bat meets air, ball heads to Sangakkara. Malinga to bowl the next over.
    47.5
    0
    Vaas to Langeveldt
    again another off cutter, around off stump, Langeveldt leans forward and defends. They were 206 for 5 staring at a win and what a turn around from there
    47.4
    0
    Vaas to Langeveldt
    off cutter, slanting away from the off stump, Langeveldt stretches forward, opens the bat-face, steers to point. Pure drama.
    47.3
    0
    Vaas to Langeveldt
    pushes it across Langeveldt who lets it go. He has taken the first three deliveries away. Will he bend the next one in?
    47.2
    0
    Vaas to Langeveldt
    beaten! Lands back of length, on the off stump line and shapes away, Langeveldt has a tentative poke - nervousness, can't blame him and is beaten
    47.1
    0
    Vaas to Langeveldt
    fullish, just outside off stump, pushed to cover
    46.6

    Malinga to Peterson
    beauty, another delivery that teases the outside edge. Full and tailing away from off stump, drives and is beaten. What a fab over it has been.
    46.5
    1
    Malinga to Langeveldt
    Jayasuriya mis-fields at squareleg and SA sneak in one run. SLower one, on the middle and leg, turned to behind square. Jayasuriya moves to his right but misfields.
    46.4
    0
    Malinga to Langeveldt
    full, straight, on the off stump, pushed to mid-off. 3 to win from 20 balls. Camera pans to South Africa dressing room. They look stunned
    46.3
    0
    Malinga to Langeveldt
    beaten Just kissed past the off stump. Tremendous nerves out there. Full and just outside off, yorker-length, Langeveldt pokes at it and gets beaten
    46.2
    W
    Malinga to Ntini
    And then they were one! Malinga gets four in four. Unbelievable! Screaming yorker and Ntini drives, plays all over it and ball crashes into the middle stump. Malinga is slinging down magic deliveries and SA are nine down.
    46.1
    W
    Malinga to Kallis
    Would you believe it? Malinga has got the hat-trick! Full, furious, outside off stump, Kallis goes for a square-drive and nicks it behind. Loud appeal. Kallis stays rooted. Even louder appeal and Harper raises the fatal finger. SA eight down and choking real badly.
    45.6
    0
    Vaas to Peterson
    another typically good Vaas ball, defended down to point, they won't try for the single and this will leave Kallis on strike
    45.5
    0
    Vaas to Peterson
    another top ball from Vaas. This is really tight stuff. The ball comes in sharply in the air from outside th eoff stump, Peterson defends with bat close to pad. There's a stifled shout for the lbw but it's turned down
    45.4
    0
    Vaas to Peterson
    this one bends in sharply from outside the off, Peterson defends carefully with bat held close to pad
    45.3
    0
    Vaas to Peterson
    full and on the off stump, driven positively to the off side with a straight bat
    45.2
    0
    Vaas to Peterson
    very full, very straight, this one doesn't swing, it goes on with the arm, flick played and missed, rapped on the pad, loud shout for the lbw but that's clearly going down leg
    45.1
    1
    Vaas to Kallis
    fullish and outside the off, driven inside out towards cover, closer to the target ...
