Undone by a hard, fast yorker which uprooted middle stump.
47.3 W Wilkshire to Finlayson
Davidson takes a superb catch above his head. It looked as though Finlayson might have gotten away with that one, but the catch was simply brilliant!
47.4 . Wilkshire to Thabethe
A slower ball, so slow it's as if it's plowing through treacle! Thabethe played before the ball was halfway to him, but it was safely away from his stumps.
47.5 W Wilkshire to Thabethe
Played on! Thabethe was picturing the ball running away to the long on boundary as he played that stroke, but it has taken the inside edge and so it is him heading in that direction instead.
47.6 W Wilkshire to Waterhouse
He's gone! Brilliantly bowled slower delivery completely deceived the batsman and he lobbed back a tame return catch to Wilkshire.
The bowler in question ended the over with 6/49, and picked up another two balls later to wrap up the innings. 5/1 in eight balls - not bad is it?

Only problem was my lot were batting!
