3-0 or 2-1? Vishal will bring you the first ten overs of the chase in a few minutes. Hang around until then.

MaK: "Isn't the new batsman supposed to take strike? When Karthik got out" --- IPL is over. Welcome back to international cricket.

Gaikwad speaks after his fifty today: "It is a tricky wicket. There was a bit of extra bounce, and the slower ones were holding a little bit. I think it will get better, but 180 is a good score [even if] 10-15 runs short. The message will be to bowl slightly slower for spinners. For fast bowlers, anything on a hard length... [His message to himself] Just back yourself to the limits."

Anirudh: "I see SA chasing this in 18 overs."

8.36pm A good score, but perhaps not good enough. At 97 after ten overs, India looked set for 200; at the end of 20, they get stuck on 179, as none of Pant and Karthik really fire. Pandya manages a few late hits, but he may have been a bit too late to do that on a flat pitch.

19.6

Parnell to Pandya, 2 runs, leading edge to long-off, and they manage two. A low full toss on leg this time, as Pandya has to go low to try and clip, but gets an leading edge

Only long-off out on the off side

19.5

Parnell to Pandya, no run, that is a sharp yorker! Fires it on middle, as Pandya rams the bat down last moment. The ball goes to the man at point. He wants a single, but perhaps realises that there will be only one ball left after this

Deep point in, midwicket out

19.4

Parnell to Pandya, FOUR, this is more Dhoni-like though! The bottom hand into play again, as the wrists whip the low, dipping full toss on off to deep midwicket. The ball is placed wide of long-on, who gives up the chase

19.3

Parnell to AR Patel, 1 run, good ball. Another near-yorker, even is it's a low full toss on off. Clipped across the line to deep midwicket

Bavuma in a chat with Parnell, who comes from over the wicket to Axar

19.2

Parnell to Pandya, 1 run, this time gets the yorker bang on! Pandya jams his bat down, and drills a single to extra cover

19.1

Parnell to Pandya, FOUR, slogs that whip in Dhoni-style! Parnell tries the yorker, but ends up just full enough for Pandya to have a free swing off middle stump. Four to deep midwicket

180 anyone?

Hardik Pandya20 (16b)

Kagiso Rabada4-0-31-1
Wayne Parnell3-0-20-0

18.6

Rabada to AR Patel, FOUR, swat-pulls for four first ball! Rabada goes short again, and bowls outside off. Axar is deep in the crease, and reads the change of pace early. Finds the gap between long-on and deep square leg

Over the stumps to Axar

18.5

Rabada to Pandya, 1 run, on a short of a length on off, and climbing on to him. Pulled off the higher side of the bat to long-on running forward

18.4

Rabada to Pandya, FOUR, top edge, and four! India won't mind. On a shortish length outside off, as he tries to pull but mistimes it. The ball flies between the keeper and short third

Pandya on strike, but new batter is Axar

18.3

Rabada to Karthik, OUT, caught at short third man! Karthik falls while trying to scoop. The ball is full and right in line with the stumps, as Karthik shapes early to play that over the keeper's head. His bat just about covers the stumps, but the ball takes a leading edge to lob to the other side instead. Parnell sits under it comfortably, and takes it with a glee

KD Karthik c Parnell b Rabada 6 (14m 8b 0x4 0x6) SR: 75.00

18.2

Rabada to Pandya, 1 run, on a hard length outside off. Punched to extra cover with a slightly open face of the bat

Kalkitha: "17.4 - 1st boundary after 13th over. "

18.1

Rabada to Karthik, 1 run, change of pace. On a slightly good length outside off, as Karthik opens the bat face to nudge that wide of point

17.6

Parnell to Karthik, 1 run, on the bounce to deep backward square leg! A low full toss on middle after Karthik tries to shuffle across, as he whips that forcefully

Gajesh: "Hardik/DK have the same SR as Stokes/Baristow at Trent Bridge currently "

17.5

Parnell to Pandya, 1 run, another full toss, this time much lower and on middle. Whipped to deep midwicket

17.4

Parnell to Pandya, FOUR, high full toss on off, and dispatched wide of long-off! Looked like that slipped from his hands as he tried a slower ball, as Pandya bashed it to the right of the man diving at extra cover

17.3

Parnell to Karthik, 1 run, short ball on middle, as Karthik backs away. Goes for the pull, but lands it much in front of the man at deep midwicket

Stays over the stumps to Karthik

Kagiso Rabada3-0-20-0
Dwaine Pretorius4-0-29-2

16.6

Rabada to Karthik, no run, goes for the reverse scoop, but is beaten. On a good length and wide of off for that shot. There is half an appeal for caught behind by Klaasen, but he is all alone there

16.5

Rabada to Pandya, 1 run, another short of a length ball outside off. This time Pandya finds deep midwicket with his pull

Devesh: "Time to prove who is the better finisher for India, Pandya Vs Karthik?"

16.4

Rabada to Karthik, 1 run, slower ball. Lands it short and outside off, as Karthik waits for the ball to come before pulling to deep square leg

16.3

Rabada to Pandya, 1 run, fires a yorker on middle. Pandya gets his bat down on time, as the ball takes the inside half of the bat towards deep square leg
