Stiaan van Zyl accompanied De Villiers at the crease when play resumed, and he made it to 33 until he was trapped lbw by Marlon Samuels.

Vernon Philander became the next man to fall when he was run out for a duck, while Simon Harmer followed him back to dressing room soon after when he was trapped lbw by Jerome Taylor for eight.

Dale Steyn was also run out for a duck, leaving De Villiers and Morne Morkel as the final batsmen standing.
