- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR0.5 gone, doesn't quite get his weight fully forward while looking to drive on the up through the covers. On the fuller side of a good length outside off stump, and he's a touch late getting forward, and ends up slicing the ball behind square, straight to the man at backward point 3/16.4 big wicket. Short, angling in and finishing at shoulder height over off stump. A quick, difficult short ball to deal with, and Kishan can't quite control the hook. A little late on it, and he hits it in the air, straight to the man at deep square leg 48/213.5 Another one bites the dust! Slower leg-cutter outside, Iyer looking to open the face of the bat is deceived the pace and can only find a thick outside edge to the keeper who makes no mistake. 98/59.1 well bowled, and Maharaj strikes first ball. Sensed that Pant was going to try and step out, and bowled it wide outside off, past the tramline. Could have left it alone if he hadn't left the crease, but the danger of being stumped forces him to reach out and try to hit it. Ends up slicing it high in the air, straight to the fielder at deep point 68/312.4 Castled him all ends up! The left-around angle does the job. Angled into Pandya, and keep coming in. The batter is cramped for room as he looks to cut, only to find the leg stump go for a walk. 90/416.6 Knocks him over with a 146.3 kph thunderbolt! Straightens after pitching, kind of a scrambled leg-cutter. Patel looks to drive on the up, misses and finds his middle stump flattened. 112/6Extras7 (lb 1, w 6)TOTAL148/6 (20 Overs, RR: 7.4)Fall of wickets: 1-3 (Ruturaj Gaikwad, 0.5 ov), 2-48 (Ishan Kishan, 6.4 ov), 3-68 (Rishabh Pant, 9.1 ov), 4-90 (Hardik Pandya, 12.4 ov), 5-98 (Shreyas Iyer, 13.5 ov), 6-112 (Axar Patel, 16.6 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR12.2 got him, completely misjudged the length there. Not short enough to pull, a legbreak straightening to hit middle stump, and hit middle stump is what it does after the ball sneaks below Bavuma's bat 93/40.6 Nips back with the seam and goes through Hendricks! Top bowling from Bhuvneshwar. Gets that to shape back, and Hendricks does not know whether to go on the front foot or back. Goes nowhere eventually, and finds his off stump pegged back. 5/12.5 In the aiiiir and Avesh takes it at backward square leg. Knuckle ball on middle stump. Pretorius goes for the cross-batted slog, but the slowness of the ball deceives him as he miscues it much finer than he would have liked with Avesh taking a good catch. 13/25.3 bowled him, Bhuvi's bagged his third! After two balls that straightened, he bowls the nip-backer. Back of a length, nips in and keeps a touch low, and van der Dussen, looking to punch down the ground, is beaten and his off stump dislodged 29/316.6 Gets another chance, and this time Bishnoi grabs it. Klaasen looks to finish it off with one blow. The ball though climbs higher than he expects and he hits it straight down the throat of long-on. Top innings from Klaasen. 144/517.6 Another one for Bhuvi. What a night he has had. Back of a length on off, Parnell goes to force it on the up, misses and his stumps are rattled. 147/6Extras3 (lb 1, w 2)TOTAL149/6 (18.2 Overs, RR: 8.12)Fall of wickets: 1-5 (Reeza Hendricks, 0.6 ov), 2-13 (Dwaine Pretorius, 2.5 ov), 3-29 (Rassie van der Dussen, 5.3 ov), 4-93 (Temba Bavuma, 12.2 ov), 5-144 (Heinrich Klaasen, 16.6 ov), 6-147 (Wayne Parnell, 17.6 ov)
