Surprisingly, Cutting came out to bat at no.3 and he also got dismissed in the 8th ver by Axar Patel. Surya Kumar Yadav was building a partnership with De Kock but only managed to add just 12 runs for the third wicket as some huge confusion took place between the two owing to some brilliant fielding display from Kagiso Rabada.
