    14.1

    Keshav Maharaj to Hardik Pandya

    W

    out, OUT! TAKEN! A wicket is always on the cards with the pressure building. Fractionally short, outside off, into the surface and turning slightly away. Hardik Pandya tries to lift it away off the back foot but fails to get enough distance. Gets it high and to long off where Tristan Stubbs holds onto it near the fence after moving to his left. He realises that the momentum will take him over the ropes. He quickly releases the ball, comes back and holds onto it. 

    DRINKS BREAK! India are going nowhere in the chase. The task continues to get steeper as the required rate has now climbed to 17. It has been execution of the highest order from South Africa. Aiden Markram has rotated his bowlers smartly and has not allowed the Indian batters to line up any one option. The acceleration cannot come any later for India. They have to put their foot down immediately after the break. South Africa will be confident of closing this game out from here.

    6.6

    Keshav Maharaj to Washington Sundar

    6

    SIX, SIX! A biggie off the last ball turns it into a productive over for India. 11 runs off it. Maharaj errs in both line and length. This is short and down leg. Sundar walks inside the line and gets low to find the elevation. Swivels and shovels it over backward square leg.

    DRINKS BREAK! Two ordinary Powerplays with the bat from the two batting sides. South Africa managed 41/3 but India are 10 runs worse at 31/3 at the same stage. The game did change in the middle phase and India will be hoping that the ball slides on a bit better now. The Proteas have been very smart with their off-pace deliveries and will look to use those variations throughout the innings. With that said, Keshav Maharaj comes on to bowl right after the fielding restrictions are lifted.

    End of over 6 ( 2 Runs )

    IND 31/3

    Suryakumar Yadav* 11(11)

    Washington Sundar 3(7)

    1

    1 run, Angled away, on a short of a length, Sundar stands tall to get this one over the in-field on the off side. Gets it off the outer half to deep third, where Dewald Brevis slides and mops it up. Just a single.

    Marco Jansen to Abhishek Sharma

    W

    out, OUT! CAUGHT! Two fielders bump into each other, but Corbin Bosch holds onto it. A massive wicket for South Africa. This is the knuckleball from Jansen, full and on middle. Abhishek does not pick the variation. He clears the front leg and has a swipe across the line. Skies it off the toe end of the blade over wide mid on. Corbin Bosch and Keshav Maharaj go after it from mid-wicket and mid on, respectively, and there is no communication between the two men. Maharaj just about withdraws himself but cannot avoid colliding with Bosch. Corbin stretches his hands out in front and the ball hits him near the wrist but he holds onto it near his chest. Keshav falls on the back of Bosch but the latter is not put off by that and he grabs hold of the ball.

    3 wickets down for IND. Out batsman is Abhishek Sharma

    Has that been taken? My word, that could have ended up being a nasty collision between Keshav Maharaj and Corbin Bosch but the latter seems to have taken a stunning catch. It is quickly confirmed to be a fair catch and that's the end of Abhishek Sharma.

    4.2

    Marco Jansen to Abhishek Sharma

    0

    no run, In the channel, on a back of a length. Abhishek dances down the track and backs away. He throws the kitchen sink at it but fails to connect.

    Marco Jansen to Abhishek Sharma

    0

    no run, Bashes the surface, over middle. Sharma hops and swivels to help it over long leg but he is hurried and the ball gets big on him. Abhishek wears it on the midriff.

    Marco Jansen switches ends now, replacing Kagiso Rabada. He went for 8 runs in his first over and picked up a wicket as well.

    End of over 4 ( 3 Runs )

    Will Markram give himself another over? Nope, just one quick productive over for the skipper. In comes Kagiso Rabada.

    End of over 2 ( 8 Runs )

    IND 13/2

    1.1

    Marco Jansen to Tilak Varma

    W

    out, OUT! EDGED AND GONE! South Africa celebrates as Varma nicks one behind, but he is not sure. Varma takes it upstairs. There was a sound as the ball passed the blade. UltraEdge loads and shows a big spike. Not sure why Tilak Varma reviewed that one. Marco Jansen steams in and serves it into the surface, touch fuller and gets it to bounce off the deck, outside off. Tilak Varma charges down the track and tries to push away from his body and edges it to the keeper. Quinton de Kock pouches it safely. 

    It will be Marco Jansen with his left-arm medium pacers, to bowl from the other end.

    End of over 1 ( 5 Runs )

    W

    out, OUT! TAKEN! It's Kishan who departs on a duck this time! Indian openers are yet to give a breakthrough opening stand this tournament. Nicely tossed up, around off, turning slightly away. Kishan gets on his knee to slog but gets a top edge. Pretty high in the air but not far away. Ryan Rickelton, inside the ring, tracks back at cover and holds onto the skier. 

    Dew on the ground? Robin Uthappa on air certainly feels so.
