September 18, 2019 22:21

India 151-3 (19 ovs) vs SA 149-5 | Scorecard

Debutant Fortuin to bowl the 19th over. Kohli is forced to defend the first ball back to the bowler and then takes one to long-on.

Iyer then gets an inside edge for a single before Kohli comes down and lofts it over long-on for a six.

Kohli flicks the next to midwicket for one before Iyer slaps the last ball straight down the ground through the long-on region for a four.

India register a comprehensive seven-wicket victory with an over to spare.

Captain Kohli led from the front with the bat with a sparkling innings of 72 not out from 52 balls, having hit four fours and three sixes. Iyer was unbeaten on 16 from 14 balls at the other end.

India thus take an unassailable 1-0 lead in the three-match T20I series with one match remaining. The first T20 in Dharamsala was washed out due to rain.
