India 4-1 (5 ovs) & 334 vs SA 121 | Scorecard


India's openers, Shikhar Dhawan and Murali Vijay, come out to open the innings. With a handy 213-run land, India need another 150-200 runs to set the Proteas a target beyond their reach.

Morne Morkel opens the bowling for the visitors and he starts with a maiden to Vijay, who defends watchfully. Birthday boy Dhawan also does the same, playing out an over from Abbott.

Vijay turns a short delivery off his pads on the leg side for a single to get off the mark. Dhawan looks to pull Morkel but is beaten before letting the next ball go through.

Vijay gets an inside edge as he tries to defend Abbott, but picks up two runs in the process. Dhawan gets off the mark, in the fifth over, off the 15th delivery he faces with a quick single.

Morkel gets the early wicket for South Africa with a quick bouncer. Vijay tried to duck under it but the ball hit the gloves on the way to dismiss him for three as wicketkeeper Dane Vilas came up with a superb catch.

Infact, Vijay straightaway indicated that the ball came off the arm guard and walked off disappointed as India are reduced to four for one in five overs.
