04.54.5: Nandre Burger to Rohit Sharma, OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! South Africa get the review right and this is a much-needed breakthrough considering the start they have had with the ball. On a good length, around off. Rohit brings his bat out in front and sets up to work this one towards mid on. This nips away off the deck to leave the right-hander. Was there an edge? The keeper, Quinton de Kock went up in an appeal straight away and there was a noise. Not given by the umpire. Temba Bavuma has a word with the keeper and takes the review. There is a scratch on UltraEdge and Rohit is left stunned. The on-field decision will have to be overturned. Sharma falls for 14 (8) and India are now 40/1.
