SA 164-5 (39 ovs) vs Ind | Scorecard

De Kock has enjoyed a good run against India in the limited overs matches when the two teams last played each other.

He looks in good touch as he hits Bumrah for a hat-trick of boundaries. The left-hander punches a full delivery from Bumrah straight down the ground past mid-on for a four. The next ball is short and wide and is steered past point for another boundary before he drives a full delivery through the covers to make it three fours in a row.

Bumrah switches to over the wicket, looking to change his angle and cut down on the width.

The last ball is down the leg side as de Kock clips it fine on the leg side for one to keep strike.

Pandya is bowling well and Kohli is happy to continue despite Shami and Bhuvneshwar having not bowled so far, for nearly an hour in the post-lunch session.

Vernon Philander pokes tentatively at a wide delivery but is beaten as the ball narrowly passes the edge.

Finally, Bhuvneshwar comes back as Bumrah gets a break after a good break after the lunch break, in which he claimed the wicket of de Villiers.

De Kock plays a nothing shot to a wide delivery and almost drags it back on to the stumps. But a few deliveries later, he steers one through the vacant thirdman region for a four.

De Kock drives the last ball of the over through the covers for a four, his fifth of the innings as he races to 25 from 19 balls.
