George Linde 2-20(4 ov)

15.6
Linde to Simelane, 1 run, tremendous spell. First Boult, now Linde. That was dropped short, pulled down to long-on for a single. 86 off 4 overs hasn't happened before in any finale of a T20 competition I feel. But credit to these bowlers. Boult finished with 2 for 9 in a finale! Now, Linde has ended his spell with 2 for 20. That's 4 for 29 in 8 overs. Words aren't enough to describe this

Linde to Markram, out Caught by Rabada!! Is this the game? Rabada takes an excellent catch to his right. 88 kph, tossed up delivery, Markram backed away to drive it, got it off the outer-edge and the man at point grabbed it to his right. He got two hands to it and grabbed it well. Very nice take by the fielder. The bowler slowed it down and the batter just couldn't play it off the meat of the bat. He never wanted to play it that square and got it off the edge. Half the side is back in the hut. The MICT camp is chuffed to bits. They have picked up a huge wicket here. Markram c Rabada b Linde 6(5)
