SA 37-3 (10 ovs) vs India 497-9 | Scorecard

Mohammed Shami from the other end. A watchful Hamza plays out a maiden over from the Indian fast bowler, just wanting to block everything coming his way.

Temba Bavuma gets off the mark in streaky fashion. He gets a thick outside edge off Umesh which goes past the slips for a four. Two balls later, he gets one which hardly bounces off the track and goes underneath the bat as he tries to defend.

Bavuma then taps the fifth ball on the off-side for one before Hamza drives the last ball into the covers.

In the next over, Shami beats Bavuma with a full delivery as the ball bounces bit more than expected and moves away to go past the edge. He gets a thick outside edge off the last ball for a four.

Umesh goes slightly short as Hamza gets on top of the bounce and steers it behind point for a four. However, Umesh finds the edge with a full away going delivery as Hamza looks to drive but it flies past the gully fielder for another four.

Umesh gets greedy as he pitches it right up and Hamza drives the overpitched delivery straight down the ground past mid-off for the third boundary of the over.
