India 71-4 (22 ovs) vs SA; Target: 208 | Scorecard


Philander bowls another quiet over as Kohli picks a single on the off-side for the only run of the over.

Rabada comes in from the other, replacing Morkel. Kohli slaps the first ball straight but the fielder at mid-off does well to put in the dive and save a certain boundary.

The next ball is full but down the leg side as Kohli clips it fine for a four.  The India captain seems to have learnt from his dismissal in the first innings and not going after wide deliveries. He brings his feet out and taps Rabada on the off-side for a single before Rohit plays an unsure leave as the ball hits the bat but falls short of the slips.

Philander strikes with the key wicket of Kohli, who comes across and looks to flick it on the leg side but misses and hit right in front.

The on-field umpire rules it out instantly before Kohli takes the DRS. The ball tracker shows the ball is clipping the leg stump as Kohli has to make his way back after scoring just 28.

India slip to 71 for four with their top four batsmen back in the hut and another 137 runs needed for victory.

India spring a surprise as they promote Wriddhiman Saha to No. 6 ahead of Hardik Pandya, who hit a brilliant 95 in the first innings, and Ravichandran Ashwin.
