Boult strikes; SA lose early wicket

June 19, 2019 16:52

SA 18-1 (5 ovs) vs NZ | Scorecard

South Africa are looking quite nervous. Amla looks to drive Henry through the off-side without any footwork but gets a thick inside edge which narrowly misses the stumps and gets him a single.

Du Plessis defends the next ball before he offers no shot to the last ball which comes in sharply.

Boult drops slightly short as Amla rocks back and slaps it through the covers for two runs and then pulls the third to fine leg for one before du Plessis watchfully defends the rest of the over.

Amla plays another loose shot, throwing his bat at a wide full delivery which moves away and is beaten. He then gets a big inside edge trying to drive it through the covers as it goes through square leg and gets him three runs.

Du Plessis then plays out the rest of the over as South Africa struggle to 18 for one in five overs.
