HIGH UP IN THE AIR...LANDS SAFE! Faf du Plessis is not happy by the looks as he expected somebody to lurk under it! Flights it up, full and on off, Rubin Hermann gets lured in the loop and comes dancing down the track to smash it down the ground. Ends up playing it a bit too early and top-edges it high behind the bowler. The ball lands between mid on and mid off with no one there. Two taken.
