Elgar looks to turn Ashwin on the leg side but can't make connection. However, two balls later he swings the off-spinner straight down the ground over mid-on for a six.

Shami looking to bowl straight on the stumps, hoping one would keep low and hit the pads right in front.

Meanwhile, dark clouds start gathering above the Centurion stadium and against the weather forecast there could be some rain sooner or later.
