9.1 OUT! TIMBER! Beautifully bowled by George Linde and Sanju Samson has been bamboozled here. Linde gives this one a bit more air, drifting into the leg stump. The ball dips and lands before turning away sharply from the right-hander. Samson clears the front leg and looks to play for the line but the ball goes past the outside edge and crashes into the middle stump. Samson departs for 37 (22) and Linde gets the crucial breakthrough for his side. 97/2

5.4 OUT! CAUGHT! Strangled down the leg side, but Abhishek Sharma has reviewed it right away. A proper short ball from Corbin Bosch but angles it down the leg side. Sharma looks to pull it behind square leg but misses and seems to have gotten a feather through to the keeper. Quinton de Kock pouches it safely and the umpire raises his finger almost instantly. However, the third umpire is now called in and this looks very close on the first replay. UltraEdge rolls and there is a spike when the ball is next to the gloves and it remains OUT. Sharma walks back for 34 (21) and India lose their first wicket at 63. 63/1

| Tilak Varma | 73 | 42 | 10 | 1 | 173.80 |
|
19.5 OUT! TILAK VARMA IS RUN OUT! Attempted slower one from Ottneil Baartman, sprays it down the leg side for a wide. Tilak Varma is off in a flash and is at the striker's end before Shivam Dube even turns around. Quinton de Kock throws the ball back to the bowler, who dislodges the bails with both batters stranded at the same end. There is a bit of confusion as to who actually is out but the replays confirm that Dube grounded his bat inside the crease before Tilak and hence Tilak has to walk back after a stellar knock. Also, Jitesh Sharma walks out to bat but he will be at the non-striker's end. 227/5

| Suryakumar Yadav C | 5 | 7 | 0 | 0 | 71.42 |
|
12.1 OUT! TAKEN! Corbin Bosch strikes on his return to the attack. The lean run continues for the Indian skipper. Scrambled seam delivery from over the wicket, on a good length, on off and middle. Suryakumar Yadav backs away a bit and looks to go over the man at mid off with a straight bat. The ball comes off the upper half of the bat and it is spooned tamely to mid off. David Miller takes a step back and leaps to take a reverse cup catch around his face. Yadav departs for 5 (7). 115/3

| Hardik Pandya | 63 | 25 | 5 | 5 | 252 |
|
19.3 OUT! CAUGHT! Straight to the man in the deep and that marks the end of a sparkling knock from Hardik Pandya. Ottneil Baartman goes for the searing yorker at the toes but misses his mark and serves a low full toss instead. Pandya stays deep in the crease and crunches it off the pads, flat and towards cow corner, where Reeza Hendricks takes a sharp catch. Pandya departs for a fiery 63 off just 25 balls. 220/4

10.2 OUT! CAUGHT AND BOWLED! An inspired bowling change and the maestro has got his team back in the contest. Jasprit Bumrah stays around the wicket to the left-hander and bowls a very full ball in towards the leg pole. This is bowled a bit slower too and Quinton de Kock closes the bat face early as he looks to flick it away. Ends up jamming it back to the bowler and Bumrah grasps the ball with both hands in the follow-through. QDK has to depart for 65 (35) and the break and the dry ball have done the trick for India. 120/2

| Reeza Hendricks | 13 | 12 | 1 | 0 | 108.33 |

6.3 OUT! CAUGHT! Nonchalantly done by Shivam Dube. Reeza Hendricks falls for a low score yet again. Googly from Varun, short and around the pads. Reeza presses on the back foot and gets his hands out in front. Looks to work it away with the spin but the ball appears to have stopped on him. Hendricks ends up chipping it uppishly wide of mid-wicket, where Dube moves to his left and sticks out his left hand. The ball sticks in his grasp and Varun cannot quite believe how Shivam managed to pull it off. 69/1

| Dewald Brevis | 31 | 17 | 3 | 2 | 182.35 |

11.1 OUT! CAUGHT! Double-whammy for India and both set batters perish quickly after the break for South Africa. Hardik Pandya strolls in from over the wicket and bangs it in well short around off, gets it around shoulder height. Dewald Brevis swivels to pull but can't control the bounce and gets a top edge that flies down to the right of deep mid-wicket. Washington Sundar takes a simple catch in the deep and the hard-hitting Brevis walks back for 31 (17). 122/3

| David Miller | 18 | 14 | 2 | 0 | 128.57 |

14.4 OUT! CAUGHT! Arshdeep Singh finally gets into the action and that could be the game for India. Arshdeep bowls a seam-up short ball now, over middle stump and extracts a bit of extra bounce. David Miller looks to pull it into the stands but gets a top edge that goes a mile up. The ball lands around the gully region and the keeper, Sanju Samson does extremely well to settle under it and take the catch. Miller departs for 18 and South Africa are out of proper batting options, it's all up to their all-rounders now. 154/6

| Aiden Markram C | 6 | 4 | 1 | 0 | 150 |
|
12.3 OUT! LBW! Varun Chakaravarthy just drags the length back and bowls it from the front of the hand around off. The ball angles in and Markram attempts a cheeky paddle sweep but misses and gets hit on the pads. There is a big appeal for LBW and up goes the umpire's finger. Aiden Markram has a word with David Miller and does take the review. The third umpire is called in, there's nothing on UltraEdge. Ball Tracking shows the impact as umpire's call and wickets as hitting, which means the on-field call will stand. India are well in command now as South Africa are 4 down for 135. 135/4

12.4 OUT! BOWLED'EM! Two in two for Varun Chakaravarthy and Donovan Ferreira had no clue about that one. Another googly from Varun, lands it full and just around off and gets it to come in sharply off the deck. Ferreira puts a stride out to block but does so down the wrong line, playing for the leg break. The ball skids between bat and pad and castles into the off stump. Varun Chakaravarthy is on a hat-trick and South Africa are 5 down for 135. 135/5

| George Linde | 16 | 8 | 0 | 2 | 200 |

15.2 OUT! TIMBER! Varun Chakaravarthy has his man. He sends George Linde back with a long stare. Varun switches to over the wicket but sticks with the googly. This is fuller in length, landing around middle and leg. Linde gets the front leg out of the way and has a swipe across the line. He is early into the shot and the ball sneaks under the blade. It brushes the back pad before clipping the off pole. 4th wicket of the night for Varun. 163/7

| Marco Jansen | 14 | 5 | 0 | 2 | 280 |
|
16.1 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! India get the review right and this is a crushing blow to the Proteas. Bumrah rolls his fingers over the ball and keeps it full, outside off. Jansen gets low and stays leg side of the ball. He tries to thrash it through the off side but is undone by the slowness of the delivery. It is gathered behind by Sanju Samson. A muted appeal from Jasprit Bumrah but he gets no support from anyone else. Samson checks with the skipper regarding the number of reviews. Suryakumar Yadav wants to take a chance. The UltraEdge shows a scratch when the ball is next to the bat and while the bat did hit the turf, it was after the ball had passed the blade. The on-field decision is reversed. Jansen falls for 14. 177/8
