#3 Hashim Amla's solid half-century
Amla seemed like the only batsman to get a hang of the conditions as he negotiated Matt Henry and de Grandhomme with ease. His timing was lovely and his feet were moving, unlike his recent Test innings.
Amla started off with a couple of beautiful shots through the covers off Henry before he unleashed some typical back foot punches to race to a fine half-century. Just when he looked set for a big one, he was undone by de Grandhomme's outswinger.
Amla's form has been worrying for the Proteas but this knock should give him some confidence. Nevertheless, he will be disappointed with the manner in which he played across the line on a green pitch to be dismissed.
