 SA 240-3 (39 ovs) vs WI | Scorecard

De Villiers getting into the act now. Holder misses the yorker as the South Africa captain slams a low full toss back over the pacer's head for a four. The next ball is a wide half-volley which AB drives through the covers for another boundary to get 12 runs from the over.

Taylor, who went for 18 runs in his previous over, continues. Two run out chances from the first two deliveries with South Africa getting an extra run from the second courtesy of an overthrow.

Taylor then bowls a wide down the leg side which Ramdin is unable to stop cleanly to give away three extra runs. The West Indies pacer has managed to find a good rhythm in this over, keeping it full and on the stumps to stop the flow of boundaries.

But he drops short and Rossouw leaps up high and cuts it powerfully over point as it carries all the way for a six. The left-hander brings up his fifty in grand style from just 31 balls as South Africa continue to push towards a big total.

Taylor has suffered yet again, going for 16 runs in his eighth over as South Africa have managed to hit 54 runs from the first four overs of Powerplay.
