Ind 50-1 (16 ovs) vs SA | Scorecard


Philander continues and Pujara finally gets off the mark after 13 balls and half-an-hour of being on the crease. 

Philander bowls the fuller length and Agarwal is happy to play them to merit. Just the single in the over. 


Nortje back in the attack, he bowls fuller and Agarwal punishes him with back-to-back boundaries -- first one a straight drive and then the next one he just opens the face of the bat, leans in and drives the ball wide of cover.

Two dots follow that up. 

Again, pitched up and Agarwal drives it beautifully through cover for another four. 

Dot to end the over as three fours come off it. 




Philander back in the attack. He mixes his length and after 5 dots, Agarwal gets a single to square leg. Just a single comes in the over.

Nortje continues and Pujara happy to just block. 

That is a maiden.




Rabada continues and he starts the over with a no-ball overstepping.

Good fortune for India here as Bavuma drops a sharp chance at forward short leg. Pujara gets a life. 

A dot later, Pujara takes a single. Leg bye signalled. 

Another no-ball here as Rabada putting in the extra effort here. 

Big shout for LBW off the last ball of the over. Umpire not interested as 3 runs, all extras -- 2 no-balls and 1 leg bye come in the over.


Pujara is the new man in. 

Nortje continues and he is quick and short, one ball Agarwal is hit on the helmet and the ball flies behind the keeper for a boundary. Agarwal looks fine after getting hit on the helmet. The medical staff comes out to speak to him and it's an all clear as the proceedings continue. 

Next ball is full and Agarwal drives it through cover-point for a boundary.

Dot to end the over.
