September 18, 2019 20:25

SA 129-4 (18 ovs) vs India | Scorecard

Off-spinner Sundar is back into the attack. Three singles from the first three balls before Miller clips one off his pads for a couple.

He then makes room and plays out the inside out lofted shot to perfection for a six before taking one off the last ball to get 12 runs from the 16th over.

South Africa will hope for a strong finish in the last four overs and look to post anywhere near the 175-run mark.

Pacer Saini is back into the attack. Miller gets an inside edge off the first ball for one before Bavuma drives a full toss straight to the fielder to miss out on some easy runs.

Saini bowls a yorker which Bavuma can only defend before the right-hander walks across and tries to scoop it fine but can't get hold of the shot.

He then drives a full toss through the covers for a couple as Jadeja makes a superb stop on the boundary and he gets a leg bye off the last ball.

Deepak Chahar is back into the attack. He strikes with the first ball of his new spell as Bavuma hits the slower ball straight to Jadeja at long-on.

Bavuma misses out on a fifty on debut as he walks back after a good innings of 49 from 43 balls.

Miller then misses out on the pull shot and is hit on the body before he takes a single to thirdman.

Dwaine Pretorius slaps a short wide delivery to sweeper cover for a single to get off the mark.

Miller is then deceived by the change of pace from Chahar as he tries to run it down to thirdman.

He can't make most of a full toss as he hits it to deep midwicket for just a single as Chahar concedes just three runs in the 18th over.

The fast bowler finishes with excellent figures of 2/22 in his four overs.
