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.
