Maharaj to Livingstone, out Stumped!! What a poor shot that is. Pretty sure both Buttler and Baz won't be happy at all. Livingstone runs down the track, it's looped up and he swipes at it across the line, the ball dips and beats him, almost yorked himself there, so far down the track he was, Klaasen with an easy stumping. Livingstone walks off without making a contribution - a poor tournament for him with the bat. Livingstone st Klaasen b Maharaj 9(15) [4s-1]

Maharaj to Brook, out Caught by Marco Jansen!! Fine sliding catch from Jansen at long-on. Brook perishes while trying to take on the spinner. It's tossed up on leg-stump, Brook gets forward to loft and does not get the elevation, but places it, Jansen runs to his right, slides on his knees and keeps his eyes on the ball, takes a fine catch with two hands and that's the end of a poor tournament for the generational talent. Jansen meanwhile is all smiles. He can do no wrong today. The partnership is broken. Jansen as replays show ran a fair way to his right - to be precise 28 metres. Brook c Marco Jansen b Maharaj 19(29) [4s-3]
