- Scorecard
De Villiers takes a single from the first ball of Afridi's fifth over and has no problems in giving Abbott the strike early in the over.
Abbott takes one before de Villiers comes down and lofts it over mid-off for a six to race to his fifty from just 45 balls. He sweeps the next ball uppishly for another six to get 14 runs from the over.
Abbott plays a confident punch past mid-off for a four off left-arm pacer Rahat. But he falls off the very next delivery as this time Rahat produces a beauty, which moves away across the right-hander to take the edge to be caught at second slip for 12.
Morne Morkel gets off the mark with a boundary as he slaps a short wide delivery past point.
South Africa are 177 for eight in 30 overs with AB on 56 from 47 balls and Morkel on 4. They need 55 runs from 17 overs for victory.
