October 06, 2022 20:15

India 30-2 (12/40 ovs) vs SA 249-4 | Scorecard

Spin introduced as left-armer Keshav Maharaj comes into the attack, to bowl the 10th over.

Gaikwad drives the first ball down to long-off for a single before the South Africans appeal for a catch by the wicketkeeper off the boot.

But the ball has clearly bounced before hitting the boot as the decision goes in Kishan's favour.

He comes down the track and smashes the next back to the bowler, who does well to get a hand on it and keep it down to a single.

Maharaj floats a full wide delivery which turns sharply and beats Gaikwad, who then takes a single on the off-side from the next ball and Kishan keeps out the last ball.

India struggling on 24/2 in 10 overs, needing another 226 from 30 overs for victory at an asking rate of 7.5.

Pacer Lungi Ngidi comes into the attack in place of Rabada, who bowled a wonderful first spell of 1/10 in five overs.

Gaikwad defends the first ball back to the bowler and keeps out the next two, before taking a single to thirdman.

Some extra bounce for Ngidi as Kishan somehow steers it towards the slips and then takes one off the last ball.

Maharaj gets some sharp turn but it goes down the leg side to Kishan and is called a wide.

He defends the next before Kishan misses the glance for another wide but South Africa appeal for stumping which is referred to the TV umpire.

There is nothing on the UltraEdge which Kishan's back foot is back in the crease when the bails were taken off by de Kock.

South Africa on the attack with a fielder placed at slip and leg slip for Kishan against Maharaj, who is getting the ball to grip and turn.

Beautifully bowled by Maharaj as Gaikwad is dragged on the front foot by a full delivery which turns away to go past the edge.

The next ball is closer to the stumps and turns away quite a bit as the right-hander is beaten again before he takes a single off the last ball.
