Sean Williams to Najeeb Tarakai, out Caught by Ainsley Ndlovu!! This was on the cards. The runs had tried up and the surface had start to assist the spinners. Williams gets one to hold and kick up at the same time, Tarakai was on the back foo to play the cut but the extra bounce does him in, lobs a dolly to cover and the debutant takes it comfortably.
