Tsotsobe to Dravid, out Caught by Prince!! Well deserved wicket for Tsotsobe. He has bowled so beautifully without any luck or reward so far in this game, but this time he gets the big wicket. It landed on a good length outside off, Dravid was drawn into the forward defensive, it maybe hit a crack or something, bounced a tad extra, took the shoulder of the bat as Dravid was looking to take the bottom hand out of the way, Prince takes it in front of gully, he is the finer of the two gullies and he has gobbled that. Smith lifts Prince and the Proteas are delighted.
Please explain to me what hit a crack means here.
