10.2
Brydon Carse to Rickelton, 2 runs, sloppy from mid-off. It's a back of a length delivery just outside off, Rickelton goes on the back foot and pushes to mid-off, needless throw that and the backing up fielder from slip on the slide fails to stop it, so one turns into two

Jofra Archer to Rickelton, no run, snaking away from a length in the corridor of uncertainty, Rickelton looks to push and gets beaten on the outside edge
1.6
Jofra Archer to Rickelton, no run, huge appeal for leg before and England decide against the review. Guess what! It is three reds on ball tracker. Hitting the top of leg stump. Pitched in line with leg stump and nipped back just enough to beat the inside edge of Rickelton. Hit him on the front pad and England did not look keen on the review. Luck with Rickelton and South Africa at the moment...
1.5
Jofra Archer to Rickelton, no run, Has that carried? Looks like it has gone on the bounce and Rickelton could be safe here. Root has got his fingers underneath when the ball popped up or has it? The umpire has asked for a zoomer and there is a frame which clearly shows that the ball made contact with the ground. Just for a fleeting second. Not out. The crowd are booing the verdict. Rickelton poked with hard hands and the outside edge flew low to the left of Root at first slip. He put in the forward dive and did really well to grab it, but it touched the ground for a fraction of a second before settling in his palms....
