Erasmus 以 E Bosch
Dot ball. Gerhard Erasmus to Eathan Bosch. Arm length ball, outside off stump on the front foot Slog, mis-timed back to bowler for no runs. South Africa have posted a commanding batting display, powered by a sensational century from Lhuan-dre Pretorius and an explosive contribution from Connor Esterhuizen. The opening pair set the tone with an aggressive partnership, maintaining a relentless scoring rate and putting Namibia's bowlers under sustained pressure. Esterhuizen fell after a brisk 88, while Pretorius continued to dominate before departing late in the innings. Jan Balt was Namibia's most effective bowler, claiming two wickets and keeping the damage relatively contained. South Africa now have a formidable total to defend. Stay tuned for the run chase.
