1.14pm A pretty comprehensive performance from Pakistan. A top-class display of fast bowling, but the two spinners - Imad and Shadab - have their share of wickets as well. SA lost de Kock to a duck in his 100th ODI and Reeza Hendricks followed suit soon after. Then, Amla and du Plessis put on the only resistance of the SA innings with a century stand. But once Shadab broke through with the wicket of the SA captain, Pakistan never relented. Shinwari ripped through SA with three wickets in an over that hastened their slide and the SA lower order hardly put up much of a resistance.

Shinwari dedicates his performance to all cancer patients and calls this one of his better performances. He says the pitch was dual-paced and then the ball reversed which helped him. He backs his batting line-up to chase this down easily. He felt there was an inside-edge but he took a chance in appealing.

Right then. Should be a straightforward chase for Pakistan. There still could be some rain, but unless it results in a washout, it should only aid Pakistan further in what is already a small chase. Stay tuned as we bring the chase to you in a bit.

Shadab Khan to Imran Tahir, OUT, that's the end of it. Tahir backs himself to go big but cannot beat the fielder in the deep. Nicely tossed up outside off, Tahir slugs it and doesn't get the distance. Long-on takes it easily
