4th over: South Africa 9-1 (De Kock 7, Bavuma 1) Hazlewood gets the breakthrough with the wicket of Tony de Zorzi and almost has a second with a big lbw shout against Temba Bavuma. The South Africa skipper is given the benefit of the doubt as he defends a straight one. Australia send the decision for a review that shows the ball strikes Bavuma on the back pad, hits him dead in front of the stumps … but is bouncing over.
The South Africa left-hander found Hazlewood hard to get away earlier and when finally given a hint of room he can’t help but open up. The Australia quick drifts a touch wider of the off-stump with the ball moving away and De Zorzi drives hard but can only get an edge to Matt Renshaw at first slip.
