A good outing with the ball for Hardik on his return to action, as he takes 1/31 in his four overs.

Saini to bowl the final over of the innings. Pretorius is beaten first ball as he tries to play the cut shot before he is beaten by a yorker and hit on the pads to collect a leg bye.

Pretorius drives Saini down the ground to long-on for two runs and then heaves the last ball for a six over midwicket to end the innings on a high.
