OUT! Caught. Dilruwan Perera to Kagiso Rabada. Off break length ball, outside off stump on the front foot defending, outside edge to first slip, by Mathews. Extra bounce off the new ball, and the outside edge is taken from Rabada's defence. Loops up to Mathews at first slip, who snaps it up with ease. A decent knock from Kagiso, looked promising. Very simple dismissal to end his stay.

84.5 Rangana Herath to Theunis de Bruyn

w

OUT! Bowled. Rangana Herath to Theunis de Bruyn. Stock length ball, outside off stump on the front foot, shoulders arms to. He's a genius in these conditions, is Herath. Rags the previous delivery miles past the outside edge. With that in the back of de Bruyn's mind, he withdraws the bat on this ball expecting a similar amount of spin off the surface. Rangana plonks it in the same spot, but get the ball to run on with the arm. Skids through to uproot the off stump, and send de Bruyn on his way.

84.1 Rangana Herath to Theunis de Bruyn

4

FOUR! Rangana Herath to Theunis de Bruyn. Stock ball half volley, middle stump on the front foot sweeping, well timed past fine leg for 4 runs. Deft touch to paddle the ball very fine, and it trickles into the rope to bring up a tremendous century. His first in Tests, and this innings will have definitely earned him a spot in the team for the foreseeable future.

FOUR! Rangana Herath to Kagiso Rabada. Stock ball half volley, outside off stump on the front foot driving, well timed past long off for 4 runs. Timed the pants off of that. Rabada pings a drive between bowler and mid off, and with the ball being hard and new, it flies away to the boundary.
