SA 92-6 (31 ovs) & 286 vs India 209 | Scorecard


Hardik Pandya comes into the attack as Shami is taken off after a short burst in which he picked up two wickets to leave South Africa in a mess.

South Africa nearly lose another wicket as de Villiers calls Quinton de Kock for a quick single but the latter is struggling. However, Shikhar Dhawan fails to hit the stumps at the batting end with de Kock well out of his crease. That is an opportunity lost for the Indians!

De Kock slashes the last ball past the slips for a boundary to get off the mark.

Bumrah bowls a beauty to de Kock but the edge goes past the slips for a four. However, Bumrah gets his man off the very next delivery and this time he gets the inside edge of the bat to be caught behind for eight.

The on-field umpire Richard Kettleborough ruled it not out and captain Kohli immediately decides to take the DRS, which confirms the edge.

South Africa have lost four wickets for 27 runs in 11 overs to be reduced to 92 for six in 31 overs, with an overall lead of 169 runs.
