SA vs AUS Live Cricket Score

20.1 OUT! CAUGHT! Went high up in the air and is comfortably taken by Mitchell Marsh at mid on. Slower ball just on top of the off stump. Quinton de Kock looks to heave one over deep mid-wicket but could only manage to get the top edge. The second wicket down for South Africa. 95/2

12.5 OUT! BOWLED'EM! A dream dismissal for Nathan Ellis! Absolute ripper to get rid of Reeza Hendricks. Ellis angles this one in and lands this on a good length just around off, nips away a shy bit skidding through as well, Reeza Hendricks stays in his crease to fend it away but plays down the wrong line and the ball goes through to flatten the off pole. Hendricks goes after getting to a start as South Africa lose their first wicket! 64/1

34.4 OUT! CAUGHT-BEHIND! Josh Hazlewood strikes again! Rassie van der Dussen tries to take on the bowler again but loses his wicket. Hazlewood bangs this one short and around off, Rassie van der Dussen once again moves across and tries to heave it over mid-wicket but only manages to get the faintest of inside edges towards the keeeper where Alex Carey makes no mistake. A huge blow for South Africa as a decent knock from Rassie van der Dussen comes to an end. The hosts are four down now. 194/4

25.1 OUT! CAUGHT! Chipped straight to covers. Michael Neser hits the good length just outside the off stump and Aiden Markram looks to play the cover drive off the front foot, times it well but straight into the hands of Marcus Stoinis standing at covers. Soft dismissal for the South Africa captain. 120/3

50 OUT! TAKEN! An anti-climatic end to the innings! Marcus Stoinis lands this short again and around leg, Heinrich Klaasen goes through his pull shot a bit early and mistimes it in the air wide of deep square leg where Nathan Ellis runs to his right and manages to hold on to it, tumbling on the ground. Klaasen walks out with a round of applause from everyone present on the ground. South Africa end on a massive 416/5! 416/5

2.4 OUT! STRAIGHT TO COVERS! Lungi Ngidi draws first blood as David Warner goes back for a low score. Ngidi serves this full and outside off, David Warner reaches for it and tries to carve it away but unfortunately for him, he picks out David Miller at covers who takes a good catch. Warner smiles in disappointment as Australia lose their first wicket. 16/1

4.2 OUT! LBW! Lungi Ngidi with the double strike! Another huge wicket for South Africa as the dangerous Mitchell Marsh goes back to the hut now. Lungi Ngidi serves this one full and around middle, angling in sharply, Mitchell Marsh looks to flick it away but gets beaten by the pace and the ball hits him on the front pad. There is a huge appeal for LBW, and up goes the finger. Marsh reviews it straightaway. UltraEdge shows no bat involved and Ball Tracking indicates that wickets is umpire's call. The on-field call remains and Australia lose their second wicket now. 22/2

11.4 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Short ball doing the trick for South Africa. Marco Jansen pitches it short outside the line of the leg stump. Marnus Labuschagne looks to flick it but gets a feather of his gloves on the ball and the ball is through to Quinton de Kock behind the stumps who finishes an easy catch. He has a chat with his partner as he is not sure whether both his hands were on the bat when the ball took his gloves but decides against the review. The replays show that it was touch and go. 87/3

34.5 OUT! CAUGHT! What drama at 99 for Alex Carey. Short ball doing the trick once again for South Africa. Kagiso Rabada bangs in short at the body line of the batter. Alex Carey looking to pull it away for a single, gets a glove on it and the ball flies to the left of Quinton de Kock who completes a full length diving catch to his left to get rid of the dancer man Alex Carey. Australia end their inning with that wicket on 252/9 with Travis Head injured and not in a condition to bat. 252/9

15.3 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Another short ball, another wicket! Kagiso Rabada strikes now! He bangs in a bouncer, on leg, takes off again, Marcus Stoinis leaps up and tries to pull but gets done by the extra bounce as it takes the gloves and goes off his shoulders to loop up in front of the keeper where Quinton de Kock runs forward and pouches it safely. Australia four down now! 113/4

23.4 OUT! CAUGHT! Slower ball again outside the off stump from the length. Tim David heaves again to go over the bowler, gets a huge top edge and the ball goes up high in the night sky. The skipper Aiden Markram calls for the catch and takes it well in the end to get rid of the dangerous Tim David.  Australia lost their fifth. 185/5

26.3 OUT! Gets the TIMBER! Short ball just over the leg stump and Michael Neser looks to make room on the off side to play the cut shot, gets an inside edge and the ball goes on to hit the middle stump. Australia losing their 6th. 200/6

31.2 OUT! TAKEN! STUNNER FROM KG! Lungi Ngidi bowls the slower delivery, full and on leg, Nathan Ellis looks to tuck it away but ends up chipping it in the air over mid-wicket where Kagiso Rabada initially overruns, but then turns back as he keeps his eys on the ball, and puts in a full-length dive to take a one-handed stunner. South Africa three wickets away from the win now! 233/7

34.2 CAUGHT-BEHIND! Kagiso Rabada strikes now! An excellent review from South Africa! Rabada bowls this on a good length and around off, Adam Zampa backs away and throws his bat at it, and manages to get the slightest of edges to the keeper where Quinton de Kock makes no mistake. There is a huge appeal for the catch, but turned down! Quinton de Kock looks confident and South Africa takes the review. UltraEdge shows a spike and the Proteas are celebrating. They are two wickets away from the win now. 249/8
