DRAMA!
Hits the back of a length, on middle. Raza hops and drops it with soft hands beside the strip on the leg side before scampering through for a quick single. Bosch is quick to his right and has a shy at the batting end but ends up hitting Burl on the back of his thigh.
Wide! Out comes the slower bumper but this is too high and it sails over the batter's head.
SIX! Hit with absolute authority. Bosch goes into the wicket but he fails to get it high enough to trouble the batter on off and middle. It comes around the waist and Raza pulls it off the front foot over mid-wicket for half a dozen.
Very full, on off. Raza was perhaps expecting a short ball and was late to get his bat down. He eventually manages to do so and jams it out.
Short and wide on off. Burl stands tall on top of the bounce to cut it away to deep point for a single.
Goes past the bat! Bowled on a length, going away with the angle. Burl's feet go nowhere and he flashes at the ball but it leaves him to whistle past the bat.
Will Eathan Bosch continue? Why not. 2/10 in 2 overs so far.
Banged in short, angled into the left-hander. Burl rolls his wrists over the ball and pulls it behind square leg for a run to open his account.
Duan and Eathan have eaten into the Zimbabwean top order with two scalps apiece so far. They have put the Proteas into a very, very commanding position to win this finale. Two veterans are at the crease now, as Ryan Burl is in at number 6.
