Rabada to Wood, backs away, heaves it hiiiiigh into the air and Nortje takes the catch at mid-on!
And England have declared!
Hold on... it might be a no-ball! It is, he's overstepped!
What happens here? I think the declaration still stands
... nope, Root has changed his mind!
Back they go... bizarre!

Maharaj to Wood, length ball, tossed up outside the off stump and launched into the leg side
... but it's not timed and goes straight into the grateful hands of deep midwicket!
And England have declared, for real this time
499 - 9

key rule is 21.14 :
"The ball does not become dead on the call of No Ball"
Root could not legally declare because the ball wasn't dead ??
