5.48pm India finish with 289. South Africa can be very very pleased with that. At one stage, it looked like 340 was a formality, and then lightning struck, literally, changing everything. South Africa's quicks kept India to just 59 runs in the final 10 overs. But the innings belonged to Shikhar Dhawan and Virat Kohli, who powered through good batting conditions with ease again. Dhawan went on to hit a hundred, Kohli 75 and then Dhoni finished with a sub run-a-ball 42.

This is definitely SA's chance to keep themselves in this series. They need 290 at the Wanderers, if there is one ground they want to be chasing that score on, it's this one. Back soon.

WATCH - Bhuvneshwar sacrifices his wicket (Available in the Indian subcontinent).

Morris to Dhoni, 1 run, full and wide outside off, drilled to cover for a run.

Morris to Dhoni, 2 runs, superb cricket. A lovely yorker down leg, Dhoni helicopters it away past square leg, all with the bottom hand. De Villiers runs to his right, stops the boundary and almost prevents Dhoni from two. Exceptional fielding.

Morris to Dhoni, FOUR, short and wide, he knows the areas so Dhoni cuts that through point for four. Very cleverly done, this is as Dhoni a territory as you'd find in ODIs
49.3

Morris to Dhoni, 1 run, OUT, a low full toss around off, skewed away to long-on. Duminy is quick on it, returns the throw to the bowler who takes the bails off to complete the run-out. Well executed from SA. Dhoni back on strike though

Morris to Dhoni, no run, how's that, asks Morris? The umpires have a chat and will ask the third umpire to decide. Soft signal is not out. A well-executed yorker around off, Dhoni jams the heave into his boot, and then up to the bowler, who takes the catch. But the ball has hit the ground before hitting the shoe, so not out.

Morris to Dhoni, FOUR, full and wide outside off, in the slot and Dhoni nails his cover drive with fierce power. No chance for the fielders

Momentum has changed a lot. India still 23 away from 300 with six balls to go. Dhoni on strike v Morris.

WATCH - Markram's jaw-dropping catch (Available in the Indian subcontinent).
