3.1 through 3.3: Nice short of length balls ... Guptill kept missing them for no run. 3.4: Short and wide outside off. Steyn will make a good hotelier! Gives the batsmen so much room!!! 4 RUNS 3.5: Change in pace ... but same line and length ... and hence same result from Guptil. He waited a fraction...

2.1 & 2.2: One run each. Ryder dropping one down to cover. Guptill edgily scooping one toward thirdman. 2.3: Ryder slogs this one over deep midwicket for 6 RUNS!
