Khurram Shahzad: 22/1 in 5 overs
Mohammad Abbas: 3/2 in 4 overs
8.6: 0 Khurram Shahzad to Markram A bit of shape away after it lands on a length outside off, he lifts his bat to let it pass
8.5: 4 Khurram Shahzad to Markram Misdirected and Markram takes full toll. He sprays it full and down leg, he clips it through midwicket. Such is the timing that the fielder in the deep stood no chance
8.4: 0 Khurram Shahzad to Markram Another one on a length, he shoulders arms
8.3: 0 Khurram Shahzad to Markram On a length on the fourth stump, he lifts his bat to let it pass
8.2: 4 Khurram Shahzad to Markram Goes hard and gets the desired result. Length ball outside off, Markram plonks his front foot and slashes it hard, gets it over point
8.1: 0 Khurram Shahzad to Markram Back of a length outside off, he leaves it alone
7.6: 0 Abbas to Bavuma Length ball outside off, he leaves it be
7.5: w Abbas to Stubbs Prolonged appeal for an lbw in unison. After a long meeting, they want to take their chances and have asked for another opinion. Pakistan players seem very excited just after looking that it didn't hit the bat. He landed it on a length just outside off, beating Stubbs, who looked to defend the line, on the outside edge. Pitching outside off, impact in line and hitting middle and Pakistan are ecstatic. Stubbs has to go. What a vital breakthrough; Pakistan are pretty much alive in this contest. Louds scream of celebration, and they will be hunting for more wickets. South Africa under the pump
7.4: 0 Abbas to Stubbs Excellent delivery again. Back of a length around the line off, gets some extra bounce, great leave
7.3: 0 Abbas to Stubbs Shorter in length, rising steeply outside off, left alone
7.2: 0 Abbas to Stubbs Good length on off, flicked to midwicket
7.1: 0 Abbas to Stubbs Over the wicket, bit short and targeting the pads, jockeys across middle and bunts it to the leg side
6.6: 0 Khurram Shahzad to Markram Shortens his length, hint of away shape from fifth stump, late on square cut and is not happy with himself
6.5: 0 Khurram Shahzad to Markram Fuller length and attacking the stumps, presses it down to short mid-on and off the middle
6.4: 4 Khurram Shahzad to Markram Got some width and pounced on it; continuing his rich vein of form, picking where he left in the first innings. Slightly short and got room to free arms, thumps it past cover for a four
6.3: 0 Khurram Shahzad to Markram Bit short in the channel, solidly punched towards mid-off
6.2: 0 Khurram Shahzad to Markram good length again around the line off, doesn't flirt with risk
6.1: 0 Khurram Shahzad to Markram fullish around the line off, ignores it
5.6: 0 Abbas to Stubbs Good nut. Beauty. Shortish and nipped back towards off-stump, left alone, well-judged leave
5.5: 0 Abbas to Stubbs Abbas is cranking it up; short and plugging away in the channel, very close to off-stump, did well to keep his bat up in the air
