Muthusamy to Brook, out Caught by Bavuma!! Key wicket and South Africa edge ahead. Totally done in by the turn and bounce was Brook. Slower and held back in length outside off, Brook's eyes lit up as he saw the flight, gets forward to loft but the ball stops on him and he can only spoon it up in the air. Simple catch for Bavuma at cover and he reverse-cups that. Almost slipped out but he hung on. That's a clever piece of bowling and the pitch helped out Muthusamy too. That was clocked at just 47mph.
