Steyn, who has three for 38 in seven overs, gets a break as he makes way for Tahir.

Virat Kohli comes in at No. 3 with India facing a near-impossible of chasing down this huge total.

Rabada bowls a quick bouncer to Dhawan, who does well to avoid it, before driving the next ball, a full toss through midwicket for a four.

The left-hander looks to be getting his touch back. Kyle gives him width as Dhawan steers it through the point region for a four before he pulls a short ball over square leg for another four.

Kohli decides to go on the attack straightaway. A short ball from Rabada is pulled with some power over the leg side for a six but the bowler gets his revenge off the very next delivery.

Rabada bowls a full wide delivery as Kohli throws his bat at it but gets an edge to be caught behind for seven. That was way outside the off-stump, infact it was so wide that Kohli did well to get something on it as wicketkeeper Quinton de Kock took a stunning one-handed catch diving to his right.

That effectively should seal the contest with two in-form Indian batsmen dismissed cheaply to leave the hosts struggling on 45 for two in eight overs.

Steyn, who bowled just one over in his first spell, comes back. He does well to give just three runs after Abbott had given the same number of runs in the previous over.

Rohit continues his good run as he drives a full delivery through the covers for a four off Rabada.

Dhawan gets a lifeline from the last delivery of the over. He had come down a long way looking for a single and was sent back but is lucky that the fielder didn't get the ball back in time.

Abbott dents India's hopes, if there were any, a major blow with the wicket of the in-form Rohit.

With the boundaries having dried up, Rohit throws his bat at a wide delivery only to get a thick edge and is caught by Imran Tahir at thirdman.

He is beaten off the very next ball as he plays from his crease to one which moves away.

SA 438-4 (50 ovs) vs India | Scorecard

Unbelievable batting from the South Africans as three of them blasted centuries to power their team to a massive 438 for four in their 50 overs. This was perhaps one of the most brutal batting effort you might have seen in recent times.

De Kock slammed 109 from 87 balls, du Plessis stroked 133 from 115 balls and AB blasted 119 from 61 balls as South Africa left India's bowlers in a complete mess.

South Africa must be feeling confident after posting such a huge total and it would take a miracle from the Indians to chase this down.

Stayed tuned for the Indian innings.

SA 438-4 (50 ovs) vs India | Scorecard

India's poor catching continues as Raina this time drops a sitter at long-off to give Farhaan Behardien a lifeline and bring up South Africa's 400, in the 48th over.

David Miller joins in the party. He heaves Bhuvi over midwicket for three successive fours as India's bowlers have a resigned look on their face.

Behardien also helps himself to a boundary, pulling a short ball from Bhuvi over midwicket for a six.

That completes Bhuvneshwar's century, he finishes with one for 106 in his 10 overs. Perhaps the worst bowling effort you will see in recent times.

Harbhajan to bowl the final over. Behardien goes after him, heaving the first ball over midwicket for a six but falls off the next delivery caught on the leg side for 16.

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.

SA 367-2 (45 ovs) vs India | Scorecard

Mishra, who has two overs in hand, comes back. AB slog sweeps him but fails to get hold of it as Rohit does well at deep midwicket to stop the six as he takes the catch but has to throw the ball in before he crosses the ropes.

De Villiers on the charge now. He comes down the track and lofts Mishra over long-off for a six and repeats the shot off the next delivery for back to back sixes.

That helps South Africa reach 367 for two in 45 overs to post the highest total at the Wankhede stadium beating the previous record of 358 for six achieved by New Zealand against Canada.

AB looking set for his century, having smashed his way to 94 from just 54 balls, with the help of two fours and eight sixes.

In the next over, du Plessis lofts Harbhajan straight down the ground for a six. He tries to blast another one through the off-side but Mishra at point fails to hold on for India's third drop of the innings.

South Africa have cruised to 269 for two in 38 overs, with a scoring rate of more than seven. One shudders to think what will happen once these two batsmen decide to cut loose!

Mishra drops short as du Plessis pulls it over midwicket for a four. He tries to repeat the shot and fails to get hold of it but Rahane at midwicket puts down a regulation catch.

Du Plessis (45) also gets a lifeline and yet again the unfortunate bowler was Mishra. Earlier, de Kock was put down and he made India pay dearly for the lapse.

Dropping catches on such a good batting wicket can prove to be lethal and very demoralising for the bowlers.

But Raina makes the breakthrough in the next over. De Kock hits it straight down the throat of Kohli at long-off to walk back after a superb innings of 109 from 87 balls, having hit 17 fours and a six.

Mohit's disappointing day with the ball continues, having given away 16 runs in his fifth over, for poor figures of 5-0-51-1.

SA 142-1 (20 ovs) vs India | Scorecard

India's fielding also not helping their cause. There was a dropped catch earlier and now they gift South Africa five runs courtesy of an overthrow as 10 runs come from Mishra's second over.

De Kock looking to change gears after a few quiet overs. And this time he targets India's best bowler, as he lofts Harbhajan over the off-side for a four and gets another boundary off the next, hitting it square on the off-side as 13 come from the over.

De Kock in full attack mode now. He gives Mishra the charge and lofts him over midwicket for a four and three balls later he plays the inside out lofted shot for another boundary.

Runs continue to come from the other end. Axar drops short as de Kock cuts it through point for a four and lofts the next ball over mid-on for another boundary.

Harbhajan again spins one past de Kock's bat before the left-hander sweeps the next through midwicket for a four.

A risky single off the next ball helps him race to his fifty from just 42 balls, having hit 10 fours.

South Africa playing really aggressive today, having scored 92 for on 13 overs, scoring at more than seven runs per over.

SA 73-1 (10 ovs) vs India | Scorecard

Du Plessis gives Bhuvneshwar the charge but is beaten before he hits back to back fours, through thirdman and mid-on respectively.
