Joe Denly became only the third batsman to be dismissed off the first ball of a Twenty20 international when he fell to Charl Langeveldt in the first match of the two-match series between South Africa and England. Pakistan's Kamral Akmal (against Sri Lanka) and Ashif Mulla of Canada (against Zimbabwe) are the two other batsmen to suffer this fate.
