65.4 Dean Elgar to Mohammad Abbas

OUT! Run Out. Dean Elgar to Mohammad Abbas. Stock ball half volley, off stump on the front foot working, to mid on, by Markram, by de Kock. There's a mix up here, Abbas set off for the single but Shadab's path was blocked by Elgar trying to field the ball. Abbas is stuck in no man's land, he turns and heads back but it's far too late as Markram swooped in from mid-on and threw the ball in to de Kock. It's a sad end for Pakistan but in a way it sums up their tour so far here in South Africa. Pakistan have been outplayed in this series and 3-0 by no means flatters South Africa. Their seamers have dominated Pakistan's batting line up. The visitors failed to pass 300 in any of their six innings. It's white ball cricket up next for these two sides, until then that's all from me, goodbye.
