South Africa vs India Scorecard

9.4 OUT! There is a nick! What a waste of a review from Amla. Not quite sure how he missed it. A length ball outside off again, pretty similar to the previous one, this time Amla tries to work it to the leg side. But the ball comes back in a long way and goes off something to the keeper. Everybody hears a noise, the Indians go up and so does the finger of Aleem Dar. Immediately, Amla signals for the review, which gives us the impression that perhaps it might have been the thigh pad, if not bat. But Snickometer detects a massive spike when the ball passes the inside half of the bat! Also, even to the naked eye, in the first replay, one could see the ball hitting the bat and also hear a noise. Hard to believe that Amla could not hear the nick. Anyways, off he goes. The change of ends works for Bhuvi. 39/1

13 OUT! Straight to the man! A poor ball but Chahal will not mind. A long hop, there to be hit, de Kock rocks back to hit it. Attempts the pull but the ball skids on and as a result, de Kock is early through his shot. Hence, the ball hits the bottom half of the bat. He skews it high in the air and Hardik Pandya comes running in from the mid-wicket fence. Takes it easily. Both openers gone. 51/2

13.1 OUT! What is happening? Really poor cricket from South Africa and Markram. One understands that he was trying to stamp his authority but still, he could have kept it on the ground. Landed on middle and leg, Markram flicks it uppishly but straight to the man at deep mid-wicket. Bhuvneshwar Kumar is actually a few yards in and has to run back but he does so comfortably. Makes the catch look easy. The Indians are ecstatic while Markram is downcast. Heartbroken will be a better word. What have I done? He must be asking himself. He will be asked even bigger questions once he enters the dressing room. India on a hat-trick! 51/3

28.2 OUT! Duminy is trapped in front! Chahal roars in delight once again, his third wicket today. He lets out a full floated ball on middle, getting it to spin back in slightly, Duminy kneels to sweep but misses the ball completely. He is rapped on the pads, they appeal and the finger goes up. That looked plumb to be honest. Duminy however has a chat with his partner but then either he realizes or is told by the umpire that they don't have any review left. Big blow to South Africa, only batsman who looked a bit at ease is back to the pavilion. Hawk Eye confirms that Adrian Holdstock is 100 percent right. 107/6

13.5 OUT! 3 wickets in the space of 6 balls! Thought Sri Lanka were playing in Chittagong. India are all over the home side here. Full and outside off, Miller leans to drive but the ball turns away a bit, takes the outside edge and goes straight to Ajinkya Rahane at first slip. Shadow practicing is done by Miller. Perhaps for the next game. 39/0 becomes 51/4. 51/4

26.3 OUT! It was going steadily until now for them but Zondo attempts to take on Chahal and pays the price. The choice of shot was not bad as such but the execution was not there. The leggie delivers his stock ball outside off, turning away after landing, the debutant tries to slog sweep but gets a top edge. The ball balloons in the air towards mid-wicket, Pandya gets underneath it and takes a simple catch in the second attempt. Yes, he failed to pouch it first up but then recovers to grab it quickly. Zondo is on his bike. South Africa have half their side back in the pavilion with the scorecard not even reading 100. 99/5

32.2 OUT! All over for South Africa. Chahal gets his maiden 5-wicket haul in ODIs and thanks the heavens. A floated full ball outside off, Morris goes for an inside-out shot over covers but fails to get the desired distance. He is caught near the fence by Bhuvneshwar Kumar. South Africa are all out for 118, their lowest ODI total at home! 118/10

29.3 OUT! Gone this time! This one turns back into the batsman from around off, Rabada once again is clueless about which way it will turn. Stays back to defend but the ball spins back in sharply to thud him on the front pad. They appeal and once again the umpire nods. Things going from bad to worse for the Proteas. 110/7

30.3 OUT! You cannot get more plumb than this! Chahal serves a leg spinner in the line of the stumps. It doesn't turn after landing as Morkel tries to flick from the crease. He misses the ball completely to get hit on the pads. The appeal follows and the finger is once again up from the umpire. Chahal has four, the Indian wristspinners have 7 in total. Domination. 117/8

31.5 OUT! Timber! Bumrah delivers a sharp delivery, very full and just outside off, angling in too, Tahir with no footwork, just like a typical tailender, tries to push at it. He once again is beaten for pace and the off pole is disturbed. To take a single off the first ball and hand a number 10 the strike against Bumrah, Morris seriously made a mistake. 118/9

3.5 OUT! Rohit holes out and gets a mild sendoff from Rabada. He bowls a sharp shortish ball on middle, angling in, Rohit tries to glance it off his hips but the bounce gets a bit big on him. It comes from the upper half of the bat and balloons down towards long leg. Morne Morkel speeds across to his left, slides and completes the catch with ease. That wasn't an easy catch but the tall man made it look so. India lose a wicket but stay on top in this game. 26/1
