Here are the Live Score and Updates of India vs South Africa 4th T20I -
- 21:57 (IST)India vs South Africa Live: 150-run partnership!Sanju Samson and Tilak Varma's partnership for the second wicket has crossed the 150-run mark.

- 21:24 (IST)India vs South Africa Live: Fifty for Sanju Samson!Sanju Samson raced to his half-century in the over with a terrific six. He got to the milestone in 28 balls and then followed it up with another six. One of Samson's sixes even hit a fan on her face and she was left in tears after that. 21 runs came off the Tristan Stubbs over.
- 21:05 (IST)IND vs SA Live: Huge concern for South AfricaGerald Coetzee came in to bowl the 6th over but he pulled away from his run-up after experiencing some discomfort on his right leg. He certainly pulled up his hamstring and went off the field. Donovan Ferriera came in as the substitute fielder for Coetzee while Lutho Sipamla bowled the over.
- 20:13 (IST)IND vs SA 4th T20I Live: How is the pitch?"It has been a slightly cooler day in Johannesburg. We are in the centre of the square. We have a decent hit straight, 86 meters, the square boundaries - 62 and 66 meters. It looks really good. Usually the pitches here have no grass and cracks but we are devoid of that today. There's a decent covering of grass. No cracks. It is going to carry through nicely and the ball will come on. It is a kind of pitch where you go after the bowlers then you can put some jitters," informed Natalie Germanos and Shaun Pollock ahead of the toss.
- 19:55 (IST)IND vs SA Live: India should test Ramandeep's bowlingIn the final game, it wouldn't be a bad option for India skipper Suryakumar Yadav to check on Ramandeep Singh's steady medium pace as he can be an asset with multiple skills, including ability to field at all positions save keeping.
- 19:18 (IST)India vs South Africa Live: Curious case of Rinku (1/4)Rinku Singh, one of the finest exponents of T20 cricket has suddenly gone off the boil in the past few months, reasons of which aren't exactly clear and it wouldn't be lost on the skipper and interim head coach VVS Laxman. On the face of it, it seems that his batting position and use as a floater at number six and seven isn't helping the Aligarh man's cause. The next T20 World Cup in India is still some distance away in 2026 and Surya, as a skipper, has enough time to dissect and put things back on track for the man, who is too precious to be lost due to lack of clarity.
- 18:30 (IST)India vs South Africa Live: Arshdeep eyes massive record!Arshdeep Singh, who has claimed 92 T20I wickets from 59 matches, will aim to become India's leading wicket-taker in the format. If Arshdeep manages to take a five-wicket haul, he will surpass leg spinner Yuzvendra Chahal (96 T20I wickets) for the record.
