Parthiv throws his bat at a wide one from Rabada but is beaten before he drives the fourth ball through the covers for a four.

In the next over, Philander gets Rohit to edge one but it goes wide of AB at second slip and goes for a four.

Parthiv looking good as he punches a full delivery from Rabada straight down the ground past mid-on for a four.

Two balls later, the bowler gets revenge with the wicket of Parthiv for 19. The left-hander took on the short ball from Rabada but the tall Morne Morkel came up with a stunning diving catch to cripple India further.

India slip to 65 for five, with another 222 needed for victory.

Two brilliant pieces of fielding were responsible for those two wickets more than the pitch or bowling.

South Africa's fielding proving to be world class yet again, while India's was below par as they dropped quite a few catches in this game.
