Milton Shumba's scoops off Anrich Nortje's second delivery off the final over yielded five penalty runs in favor of his side. South Africa was penalized because the relay from Lungi Ngidi hit de Kock's gloves, which were placed on the field by the keeper in hopes of gathering the ball for a quick throw. Moreover, it was deemed a dead ball as well, handing the Zimbabweans an extra delivery in the final over.
