END OF OVER:

3.36pm A sensational 38-ball 67 from Chase lifts WI to 207. But he was starved of strike in the 20th over, so SA have escaped from conceding more in the back end. King, Mayers, Fletcher and Shepherd were all impressive too.

As for South Africa, debutant legspinner Peter impressed with 2 for 32. Fortuin was miserly with 1-21. Phehlukwayo conceded a bowling half-century while Ngidi bowled the tough overs. Himanshu will be back with the chase soon.

Here's the legspinner Peter: "It's gone well if I can put it that way. Few stuff I can do better but happy to do this for the team. (First wicket) First wicket is always special. Definitely felt that all the hard work finally got a time to shine. (Target) Wicket is starting to crumble a bit but better wicket than yesterday. We can fancy our chances with the arsenal we've got. (From net bowler to playing for SA) Me being here shows that keep working hard. Sometimes you might not get chances, maybe its not the right time. Keep working, be patient."

Nortje to Chase, 2 runs, short and wide ball, he reaches out and cuts it high up in the air. Mistimed, but Chase survives because debutant Peter cannot successfully complete the catch at deep point. He threw the ball up and into the field of play once he noticed his momentum taking him over

Ngidi to Chase, SIX, second tier of Sabina Park! Length ball on middle and leg. Chase just lifts it off his waist, and sends a six over deep midwicket! The ball crashes into the stands and then bounces into the parking lot. It has even broken the back window of a car! Gets his first fifty in style.
