Dewald Brevis 31(16)

19.2
W
Matt Henry to Brevis, out Caught by Michael Bracewell!! Such calmness from Bracewell at deep mid-wicket. He is on the edge of the boundary ropes and he calmly takes it, realises he is going over, so flicks it back, goes out and comes back in to take it. But is the right foot touching the rope? When the ball is in his hand, the right foot seems to be just away from the rope. Interestingly there's no cushion there where Bracewell's right foot is. That's crucial for if there was a cushion, Bracewell would have made contact with it. Such are the fine margins which can win you tournaments. A short delivery at Brevis who pulls and it's high and a bit more elevation would have seen that go over. Bracewell though is so composed and pulls off such a massive catch with the match on the line. The third ump has a look at the replays and gives it out, going with Bracewell. Brevis c Michael Bracewell b Matt Henry 31(16) [4s-1 6s-3]
19.1

18.4

Jacob Duffy to Brevis, SIX, is that the blow that wins it for South Africa? A low full-toss as Jacob Duffy misses the yorker, on off, Brevis gets forward and lofts it on to the roof at long-on. Such a big blow and the ball has landed on the roof and gone out of the ground
18.3
Jacob Duffy to Brevis, no run, a crucial dot. A slower-ball dug in short outside off, Brevis slashes and misses, brave ball with two men inside the ring on the off-side
18.2
Jacob Duffy to Brevis, 2 runs, slower-ball full just outside off, Brevis drags it to long-on and Mitchell fumbles, he is not happy, flings it back but they come back for the 2nd
18.1

Jacob Duffy to Brevis, SIX, that's a tremendous blow. One-handed and Brevis clears Mitchell at long-on. A low full-toss outside off, Brevis loses his balance but swats it and gets it wide of Mitchell running to his left

16.5
Milne to Brevis, 1 run, dug in short at Brevis who splices the pull, no mid-wicket and it falls safely

Milne to Brevis, 2 runs, terrific fielding from Mitchell at long-on. He runs and dives to his right to keep it to two. Full on middle, Brevis helicopters it well and Mitchell gets there, release the ball quickly too
16.3
Milne to Brevis, no run, loud LBW appeal from Milne but Seifert suggests there is an inside-edge and the umpire doesn't give it. Two sounds. Full and angled in on middle and leg, Brevis looks to have got a tiny inside-edge on the heave, on to pad and rolls to backward point
16.2
Milne to Brevis, no run, good length and angled in on off, Brevis gets forward to defend to cover
15.6

15.4
Jacob Duffy to Brevis, 1 run, full and angled in on off and middle, Brevis gets forward to drive to long-on
15.4
Jacob Duffy to Brevis, wide, loud appeal for caught behind down the leg-side and umpire Langton Rusere signals a wide. New Zealand can't believe it. It's dug in short down leg, Brevis pulls and there's a sound when ball was next to bat, did it flick the glove? No DRS here and that will stay not out
