Ashwin scalps Abbott as South Africa continue to slip

December 04, 2015 16:05

SA 84-7 (38 ovs) vs India 334 | Scorecard

De Villiers sweeps Ashwin from well outside the off-stump but gets just a single. New batsman Kyle Abbott comes forward and drives a full delivery from Ashwin straight down the ground for a four.

However, Ashwin gets revenge off the very next delivery, trapping Abbott leg before wicket for four. He went way back in his crease to defend but missed and was caught plumb in front of the stumps to give Ashwin his first wicket of the innings.

South Africa slip to 84 for seven after 38 overs, with another 51 runs needed to avoid the follow-on.
