SA 399-3 (47 ovs) vs India | Scorecard

India's bowlers seem to be in a very generous mood, gifting full toss regularly. De Villiers makes most of a full toss from Mohit hitting it over the covers for a four before a single takes him to 99.

Mohit seems to have lost his mojo as he bowls two successive wides to AB, trying to keep the ball out of his reach.

Finally AB drives a full toss to the sweeper cover fielder to race to his century from 57 balls, having hit eight sixes and three fours.

He becomes the third South African to hit a century in this match as the visitors look set to bat India out of the match with a total well in excess of 400.

He gets down on one knee and slogs Mohit over midwicket for another six.

AB continues his attack in the next over. He crashes Bhuvi over long-on for his 10th six of the innings and the next ball is lofted over the off-side for the same result.

Bhuvi brings India some relief with the wicket of AB, who is beaten by the slower bouncer and is caught behind. He walks to a loud cheer after a stunning innings of 119 from 61 balls, having hit 11 fours and three sixes.
