00:00Oh, has he got him?
00:14He's got him first ball.
00:15That bounce really surprised him.
00:17Woking him up.
00:18First good morning from Corbin Bosch and South Africa are on their way.
00:23On a hat trick.
00:25First ball of day number four.
00:27You need to be ready.
00:33Way, way, way behind.
00:37Perfect.
00:42Worked away nicely.
00:43Just shows what kind of form he's in.
00:45Sean Williams.
00:46And he'll reach the boundary.
00:48First boundary of the day.
00:50Nicely driven.
00:55Oh.
00:57That flew through gully and between third slip.
01:01He wasn't in control of that, I tell you.
01:03Period of time.
01:08So there's...
01:09Don Paul there.
01:12Man in form.
01:13Hit with the stain.
01:15Boundary by Sean Williams.
01:16Just squared up for a moment.
01:22And again, that ball just surpasses that slip court and goes to the boundary.
01:26So...
01:27And has a great deal of confidence as well.
01:31This outfield is quick.
01:33So Bosch is going to have to give it a good chase here.
01:35But it skips away for four.
01:36Well, that's one way of scoring.
01:41Get down low.
01:42Take it as a low full toss and reverse it to a boundary.
01:46He doesn't stand in an upright position.
01:47In the air.
01:50In the air.
01:51Oh.
01:51In a tangle.
01:52Round.
01:53The wicket didn't work.
01:55Over the wicket works this time.
01:57Corbin Bosch.
01:59He's picked up number three.
02:03Yeah, that's the right word.
02:04A tangle.
02:04He's been testing him in that zone.
02:07That length.
02:07Very persistent with it.
02:08Corbin Bosch.
02:10Trying to move a step or half a step away.
02:12Instead of covering the line of the ball.
02:14And he's paid the price.
02:15He's got a top edge.
02:17Outside edge.
02:19And gone.
02:20He's just fended at that one outside the off stump.
02:23Principal Saure.
02:25Would have been better served letting it go.
02:28Kesha Maharaj.
02:29You magician.
02:30Change of bowling.
02:32Cody Youssef on for one delivery.
02:33I'm not going away from the fact that Corbin Bosch was superb.
02:37He bowled really well in his opening spell.
02:39But the timing of this change seems to have been perfect.
02:43No issues there.
02:44Just maybe a fraction of a heel behind.
02:47So he's not going to have any worries.
02:50But it's that line.
02:55That's the way you want to play it.
02:56If you're going to try and get the ball into that area.
02:58It's played with nice authority.
03:00A rolling of the wrist.
03:01Get on the top of the bounce.
03:02No danger.
03:03Oh, but he doesn't need to do any more work on this occasion.
03:09The right hand and the movement and the length that he hits is just perfect.
03:13He's found the edge.
03:14Madhavere has to be on his way in South Africa.
03:17Madhavere has to be on fire this morning.
03:26They have bowled some fantastic areas this morning.
03:29The South African seamers.
03:32Lovely.
03:38That's a good shot.
03:41Came down to the wicket to him in the first innings and was undone this time.
03:45Gets to the pitch a bit.
03:46Puts it away comfortably.
03:47And out comes the reverse.
03:53So Craig Irwin's decided that he's going to play his shots here.
03:56Get some runs.
04:00Puts it.
04:00It's taken.
04:04Wonderful technique in the slip.
04:08Four slips in the gully in place.
04:10Length just pushes hard.
04:12Seeking well away from his body.
04:14He won't be happy with that shot.
04:15Being able to set up a cordon and making sure you cover as much as possible.
04:21Oh, that one's gone through.
04:23It's gone to the fence.
04:24I think it was just off the pad.
04:26No.
04:26It's an edge that dropped short.
04:30That'll be four.
04:31Should be four.
04:32Is four.
04:38Tins to Maroma has also made some runs.
04:42It's a good-looking stroke from this barbie and captain.
04:45Picks him out of the boundary.
04:48He's fourth this morning.
04:52Into the attack.
04:54Outside air is dropped.
04:55Oh, nicely played.
05:08Easy as you like.
05:10You just think as soon as these clouds burn off.
05:13All right, what's all the fuss about?
05:21It's a belter of a wicket.
05:24Being in control as a bowler or having that fear over the batter.
05:29Could really, really just ignite him and just get him on his merry way.
05:34Just like a Masakadza who's...
05:37Oh, he's having the time of his life out in the middle.
05:42He's hit that hard.
05:44He's smashed that square to the wicket.
05:46In the start in 11.
05:52Another good shot.
05:53This time behind square off the back foot.
05:57And this is a bit of an exhibition by Masakadza.
06:00There's that reverse sweep again.
06:09And it's been a markedly effective shot for him.
06:11Executes it with absolute aplomb.
06:13That's always the concern.
06:22Man who's maybe not spent as much time bowling and the pressure of this test match.
06:27Oh, baby.
06:34End of the over.
06:36Zimbabwe 150 for six on day four at lunch.
06:39Again, Masakadza has responded.
06:46Wow.
06:47He's got it between backward point and the gunny.
06:51And he gets his first test match 50.
06:57And I was going to say in anticipation of the sweep shot.
07:00But he's played it very, very well.
07:02Unbelievable.
07:11Tony DeZorzi.
07:13He's been in the walls under the helmet at short leg since last evening.
07:18But this catch
07:19is special.
07:22Wonderful anticipation from Tony DeZorzi here.
07:32There he is.
07:33A little slower through the air.
07:35And he's smashed this one down the ground.
07:39Finds a gap.
07:43Balled him.
07:44He's got five.
07:46Corbin Bosch.
07:48Come on.
07:50First one in test match cricket.
07:54And it's well deserved.
07:57Seeing a first already for Corbin Bosch.
08:00His first test match 100
08:01in the South African first innings.
08:04And he's got enough behind the line
08:06to give him his second first.
08:09His first test match fight for.
08:15He'll play his shots.
08:16It's not convincing.
08:18Thick inside edge.
08:19Runs away for four.
08:25He's got him.
08:26He gave it some air.
08:27A big drive.
08:28A Masakadza.
08:29And eventually the outside edge.
08:31And it's a good catch.
08:32That's air.
08:35And he's gone after it.
08:36But he's pulled it off.
08:36Didn't pitch.
08:38Masra Barney picks himself up a boundary.
08:41Been hitching to get it through the leg side.
08:43He gets a low full toss.
08:44Doesn't quite get all the timing he wants.
08:46Come on.
08:46Just toss it up on a length.
08:48Not play it off.
08:51Hammett.
08:53She heard the conversation.
08:55She said, just ball your normal length.
08:56I think the delivery before he was trying to toss it up.
08:58And that's why it ended up as a full toss.
09:02Goes again.
09:06Golgi.
09:06He loves it through there.
09:09All the way for six.
09:11And that is agricultural.
09:17But effective.
09:18It's gone all the way.
09:20A flight and a certain length that he can just launch into.
09:24Yeah, there you go.
09:26There you go.
09:30He's got four boundaries and two sixes in this rapid knock of 32.
09:35Oh, he's gone.
09:40I don't know if Bremis deliberately dropped it short.
09:44Saw him coming down.
09:46But it's really worked.
09:47He got himself in such a tangled position.
09:49He was looking for a maximum.
09:51He bowled a wide.
09:52Would have been a wide and a wide ball match.
09:54But, yeah, he had that much time that Verena has paused slightly.
09:59Well, it wraps up Zimbabwe.
10:04And South Africa win this test match by three.
