SA 257-7 (60 ovs) vs Ind | Scorecard


Pandya and Bumrah looking to bowl tight and frustrate the two tailenders, who look to keen to smash it around and score some quick runs.

Two singles off Bumrah before the pacer bowls a deadly bouncer to Maharaj, who does well to get out of the way just at the very minute.

Rabada gets into the act as he launches Bhuvneshwar high over the long-on fence for a huge six. He then takes a single before Maharaj turns the pacer square on the leg side for two runs.

Maharaj then chases a wide delivery but is beaten and Kohli is not happy as the ball missed the edge again.

Pandya comes back from the other end, replacing Bumrah. Rabada gets a thick outside edge which goes in the gap through the covers for two runs.

Rabada picks a single before Maharaj gets an inside edge off the last ball for two runs behind square.

This is proving to be frustrating for the Indians as South Africa reach 257 for seven in 60 overs, with Maharaj on 34 and Rabada on 17. They have scored 27 runs in seven overs since the tea break to keep the scoreboard ticking.
