15.4 taken on the fence, and Samson's fun is over! A touch short on middle and leg, and that prompts Samson to rock back. He swipes at it but the ball seems to get just a smidgen big on him. Not the cleanest of strikes and hitting into the breeze to the longer side brings Stubbs into play. He settles himself at deep mid wicket and takes it in front of his face. A stunning, stunning innings comes to an end and Samson walks off to a rapturous applause! 175/4

3.1 and Coetzee among the wickets straightaway! Fullish just outside off. Abhishek chances his arm and takes on mid off. The ball, though, bounces a touch higher than he expects, meaning he gets it near the maker's name. Spoons up and Markram, running back from mid off, completes a sharp catch over his shoulder. An audible cry of delight from Coetzee, and Abhishek's boom-or-bust T20I career continues! 24/1

8.6 Suryakumar holes out and Kruger's incredibly long over, ends in delight! On a length, in and around off. Suryakumar looks to hit it with the wind into the leg side but does not get as much of it as he would have liked. Might have been a knuckle-ball actually, which explains why Suryakumar ended up dragging it that square. Simelane runs in off the deep square leg fence and makes no mistake! 90/2

14.4 goes straight up and taken by Jansen! Length ball, pushed across the batter outside off. Tilak wants to tonk it into tomorrow and loses shape. Gets plenty of elevation but no distance and Jansen, well off the deep square leg fence, does the rest! 167/3

16.5 Pandya bites the dust! Short and wide outside off, asking Pandya to step out of his comfort zone. He takes on the stroke but does not get the contact he desires. Slices it and Jansen at deep point holds on to a fairly regulation chance. South Africa fighting back! 181/5

18.5 gloved and taken by Klaasen! Slower short ball outside leg and Rinku, like the previous ball, looks to help it fine. Only gets it off the glove this time and Klaasen, diving forward to his right, seems to gobble it up. Good take by Klaasen, he had to get his gloves underneath it and he did so with aplomb! 194/6

19.1 hit clean and flat but straight to Stubbs! Short outside off and Jansen seems to have taken pace off it, which means Axar has to do all the heavy lifting. Still gets a decent piece of it but not the elevation to clear his Delhi Capitals teammate on the deep point fence. A simple reverse-cupped grab, and India are now seven down! 199/7

19.6 Arshdeep tries to pinch a bye and sacrifices Bishnoi in the process! Banged into the track outside off. Bishnoi, like earlier in the over, swipes at it without watching the ball closely. Misses it completely and then has to rush to complete the bye. Klaasen relays it to Jansen, who takes off the bails. Bishnoi would have made it had he dragged his bat in but he didn't. Bat in the air and India finish with 202! 202/8

0.4 edged and taken! Arshdeep has the last laugh! This is full again and unlike the previous ball, this just holds its line enough. Markram is looking to play through mid wicket and the closing of the bat face induges a faint tickle that is snaffled up by Samson. India with the early breakthrough! 8/1

5.2 miscued and Chakravarthy strikes instantly! Given a bit of air on a length on middle and leg. Rickelton backs away and tries to muscle it over wide long on. Skews it off the bottom part of the bat, though, and Tilak settles under it at long on. India's gamble to turn to spin in the powerplay pays dividends, and South Africa in a spot of bother now! 44/3

3.3 straight to Suryakumar Yadav, and Stubbs perishes! Back of a length outside off. Seems to stick in the surface a little and Stubbs scuffs it. Was perhaps trying to over the India captain but only managed to pick him out. India have two in the powerplay! 30/2

11.3 six and out! Chakravarthy gets the big fish, and there will be no heroics from Heinrich Klaasen tonight! This is a little shorter, attacking the stumps. Klaasen sits back, looking for the pull. The ball, though, hurries onto him and he ends up clothing it. Straight down long on's throat and India reap the rewards of applying pressure through spin! 86/4

11.5 Miller follows Klaasen and Chakravarthy is turning this game decisively in India's favour! This is also on the shorter side, angling into the pads. On most days, Miller would have smashed it into the roof. But tonight, he miscues it. Straight to Avesh at deep square leg and Miller cannot believe what he has done. India will not mind one bit and they are well and truly in the ascendancy now! 87/5

12.1 India are running through South Africa now! Bishnoi, having played a major role in the previous two wickets, now gets himself on the board. Throws it up full and wide, inviting the drive away from the body. Kruger cannot control it and slices it towards backward point, where Pandya snares a smart chance to his right. South Africa six down now! 87/6

14.6 Pandya makes no mistake this time, and Bishnoi has his man! Dangles the carrot outside off and Jansen bites. Looks to go downtown but loses his shape (and his wicket) in the process. Cuts across it too much and Pandya running back from backward point gobbles it up! 114/8

12.5 plumb with a capital P! Googly fizzed through on a length on middle and off. Simelane plays the trajectory and goes back, perhaps also because he was not really picking Bishnoi. The ball breezes past his bat and smashes him on the back leg. The umpire's finger went up as soon as Bishnoi began appealing and Simelane does not even bother with the review! 93/7

16.5 yes, no, sorry, thank you! A mix-up that sums up South Africa's evening! Juicy full toss outside off. Maharaj smacks it straight to extra cover and he then indulges in a mid-pitch conversation with his partner. Coetzee eventually goes through for the single but by then, it is too late. Suryakumar takes aim, throws down the stumps at the batter's end, and adds the full stop to Coetzee's cameo! 135/9

17.5 stumps go splat, and that will also be that! India go 1-0 up in the series and they go 7-3 in T20Is against South Africa in South Africa! Speared in full, honing into off stump. Maharaj looks to smash it into next week and misses the ball comforatbly. Hears the death rattle soon after, and that is a thumping end to a commanding bowling display! 141/10
