54th over: South Africa 140-6 (Bavuma 51, Jansen 21)For those asking about whether Hazlewood is there, I should have mentioned that the playing regs mean that he can’t bowl for about 30 overs, which is the length of time that he spent off the field yesterday. Given he wasn’t off for an external injury, which is one of those quirky distinctions that still exists. Laceration, the game will look after you. Torn muscle or gastro, that’s your problem.
The Starc and Bavuma battle is an interesting one. A lot of angle across the right-hander, who leaves some, then flirts with a couple of deliveries, but they’re anomalous ones: first a no-ball, for an overstep, then a high full toss that he tries to steer away. Surely he couldn’t have known that was a no-ball… Last ball of the over though, Starc loses his line and bowls leg stump, and Bavuma glances four for his fifty.
