Quinton de Kock knocked off on the first ball

In an unfortunate event, the South African men lost their first wicket on the very first ball of the second innings today.

South African veteran Quinton de Kock lost his wicket while attempting a single as his batting partner miscalculated his move.

There was quite a lot  of indecision on Reeza Hendrick’s part about going for the single. The batsman was seen deciding to make a run for a single before ditching the plan.

Meanwhile, de Kock was more than halfway down the pitch and there was no way back for him as van Meekeren returned the throw at the bowler’s end. de Kock got dismissed.
