Is it bouncing over? No bat involved on UltraEdge. Ball Tracking comes up as three reds with the ball crashing into the top of the middle stump. Breetzke takes a review with him. He falls for 24 (23). This wicket will help Krishna in terms of his confidence after an expensive opening burst. South Africa are now 168/3. |
