SA 202-6 (45 ovs) vs Ind | Scorecard


Philander gets off the mark with a boundary as he drives Pandya through the off-side for a four. Two balls later, he again flays the medium pacer through the off-side for another four and then takes two runs to get 10 from the over.

De Kock is beaten by Bhuvneshwar, who gets some extra bounce before he takes a single.

Bhuvi then induces an edge off Philander but it flies wide off the gully fielder for a four. He is beaten again off the next ball outside the off-stump and then edges the next ball over the slips for another four.

India introduce spin as Ravichandran Ashwin comes into the attack, to bowl the 42nd over.

The first ball is slightly wide as de Kock plays it late, steering it past the gully fielder for a four. The fourth ball is tapped into the covers for two runs to the fielder in the deep.

De Kock turns Bhuvneshwar square on the leg-side for two runs to raise the 50-run stand for the sixth wicket from just 39 balls.

In the next over, the left-hander goes after a wide delivery from Ashwin and gets an inside edge which goes into the keeper's pads. Nice flight from Ashwin as he looks to make de Kock chase wide deliveries.

Bhuvneshwar bowls on the pads as de Kock flicks him twice in a row for two followed by a four. However, the pace gets back at the left-hander, as he gets him caught behind after a sparkling innings of 43 from 40 balls, laced with seven fours.
