India 5 down as SA fight back

India 232-5 (43 ovs) vs SA | Scorecar d

Spinner Maharaj, who has five overs in hand, is back into the attack. The Indians continue to struggle to get the scoreboard moving. Maharaj starts with two dot balls to Venkatesh, who then takes a quick single on the off-side.

Two more singles from the last two balls as Maharaj gives away just three singles in the 41st over.

Phehlukwayo continues to keep things tight and build up the pressure, with just a single coming from his first four balls.

Thakur breaks the shackles as he picks the slower ball from the medium pacer and swings it over midwicket for a six.

But despite that six, Phehlukwayo concedes just seven from the over.

Maharaj does well to restrict the two batsmen to just five singles in the 43rd over, as the target of around 300 looks increasingly difficult.
