Australia Vs South Africa Live Cricket Score - Live Cricket Score, 2nd ODI - Full Scorecard

Xavier Bartlett to Ryan Rickelton, OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Xavier Bartlett strikes again! Good length, around middle and off, angling away from the batter. Ryan Rickelton, with not confident footwork, pokes tentatively at it. Gets an outside edge that was dropping to the left of the keeper behind the stumps. Josh Inglis dives low to his left and holds onto it. A brilliant fielding effort on the previous delivery took Tony off the strike, and Bartlett has struck on the very next one. A good phase for the Aussies. 

Xavier Bartlett to Aiden Markram, OUT! CAUGHT! A four-ball duck for SA's best better from the previous game. Xavier Bartlett bends his back and bowls a back-of-length delivery around the pads of Aiden Markram. The Proteas skipper steps out of his crease and looks to flick this beyond the reach of Travis Head at mid-wicket. Fails to roll his wrists to take this away from Head and ends up hitting it straight to him. Aiden Markram departs for a duck, and SA are 2 for 1.

Adam Zampa to Tony de Zorzi, OUT! CAUGHT AND BOWLED! Adam Zampa gets his man eventually! Once again, we see a wicket fall right after the drinks break, and the big 67-run stand is broken. This is flighted, full and on leg, does not turn much but just enough. Tony de Zorzi stays back to clip it to the leg side but closes the bat face early. Gets a leading edge and this time straight to the bowler, where Zampa does not have to move an inch and takes a dolly. de Zorzi falls for 38 off 39, and South Africa are 90/3! Tristan Stubbs has walked out next.

Nathan Ellis to Matthew Breetzke, OUT! TAKEN IN THE DEEP! Nathan Ellis gets a huge wicket here! He goes around the wicket and bangs this one into the pitch on leg. Matthew Breetzke goes for the pull shot, which has been his go-to in this game. He has played that well so far, but this time, with the angle, gets cramped up and fails to get on top of it. Gets a top edge as the ball goes high in the air towards deep square leg. Alex Carey, who is stationed there, settles under it and pouches it safely. Breetzke departs for a brilliant 88 and just misses out on a well-deserved ton. South Africa are 179/4 now!

Adam Zampa to Tristan Stubbs, OUT! CAUGHT! The Aussies haven't dropped anything in the last few overs and have been exceptional in the field. Leggie, around off, tossing it up over the eyeline of Stubbs. The batter looks to muscle this over the fence towards long on but gets it off the edge of his bat, and it hangs over Cameron Green at long on. Green makes no mistake and takes this nice and easy. Stubbs has played a fine knock of 74 off 87, but South Africa are losing their way a bit here.

Nathan Ellis to Dewald Brevis, OUT! TAKEN! Nathan Ellis gets two in two overs! Dewald Brevis tries to attack but goes back without making much impact again. This is another good short delivery, angling into the body of the batter. Brevis cannot stop himself from going after that and plays the pull. However, the ball just gets big on him and he mistimes it high in the air. Cameron Green from deep mid-wicket runs forward to his right, then takes a few steps back to reverse cup it nicely. Brevis is yet to replicate his T20I form into the longer format. Proteas lose half their side now!

Marnus Labuschagne to Wiaan Mulder, OUT! CAUGHT! Bringing Marnus Labuschagne on has proved to be a masterstroke indeed. Not the start South Africa were looking for in the last 10 overs. Tossed up wide of off, Wiaan Mulder gets down on a knee and looks to slog this up and over the fielder at the long on fence. Wiaan Mulder fails to get right underneath it and hits this straight to Cameron Green at the long on fence. A simple catch for Green and Wiaan Mulder departs for 26(21).

Marnus Labuschagne to Senuran Muthusamy, OUT! CAUGHT! Senuran Muthusamy would be really disappointed to find Aaron Hardie on this juicy looped up full toss around his pads. Senuran Muthusamy jumped down the track to slog it over the fence, but got a bit cramped and ended up hitting this straight to Aaron Hardie at the deep mid-wicket fence. Senuran Muthusamy departs for 4(6) and South Africa are 243 for 7!

Adam Zampa to Nandre Burger, OUT! TAKEN! Nandre Burger's luck runs out now! Another googly from Adam Zampa, full and outside off, turns away too. Burger reaches out for it and tries to slog it down the ground, but only manages to get a top edge. The ball goes high in the air wide of long off. Cameron Green runs to his left and takes it with a reverse cup while sliding on the ground. South Africa are 264/9 now!

Josh Hazlewood to Lungi Ngidi, OUT! BOWLED'EM! Josh Hazlewood wraps things up! He goes full and straight, attacks the stumps. Lungi Ngidi backs away and tries to guide it away but plays all over it as the ball goes through to rattle the off pole. South Africa have been bowled out for 277!

Nandre Burger to Travis Head, OUT! TAKEN! Nandre Burger draws first blood and gets a big wicket! He goes full again and on middle and leg, holds its line. Travis Head decides to go big and tries to slog it down the ground but his head is not in the right position. His bat also turns in his hand, and he mistimes it high in the air over the bowler's head. Aiden Markram from mid off runs backwards, keeps his eyes on the ball, and takes a fine catch. Head falls cheaply and Aussies lose thier first.

Wiaan Mulder to Mitchell Marsh, OUT! TAKEN! Wiaan Mulder with a big breakthrough in his first over! The bowling change works wonders for South Africa. Mulder bangs this into the pitch, on middle, gets some extra bounce. Mitchell Marsh stays back to pull it away, but does not transfer his weight on the back foot and goes at it half-heartedly. Gets a top edge as the ball goes in the air towards mid on, where Corbin Bosch (Sub) takes a good catch. Marsh departs for 18 off 25, and Australia are 38/3.

Lungi Ngidi to Marnus Labuschagne, OUT! EDGED AND GONE! Lungi Ngidi strikes now! He serves this fuller again and in the corridor of uncertainty, shapes away too. Marnus Labuschagne gets tempted this time and goes for the big drive, but only manages to get a thin outside edge behind, where Ryan Rickelton makes no mistake. Great setup from Ngidi. Australia are 7/2 now! Cameron Green has walked out next to bat. 

Senuran Muthusamy to Cameron Green, OUT! CAUGHT AND BOWLED! South Africa finally holds on to one! Senuran Muthusamy tosses it up, full and on middle, turns away a shy bit. Cameron Green uses his feet to work it away but due to the turn hits it much straighter and in the air down the pitch. Muthusamy, on his follow-through, gets down well and takes a fine low catch. The budding 67-run stand has been broken, and Australia are four down now.

Lungi Ngidi to Josh Inglis, OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! A massive wicket in the context of the contest as Australia loses a dangerous-looking Josh Inglis. Josh was playing a blinder, just 13 runs shy of a well-deserved century. He got a bit too aggressive, stepped down the track, and ended up bottom-edging a delivery around fourth stump. Rickelton did well to take the catch diving low to his right, and now Australia are 7 down, struggling to get back into the game. This could be a massive turning point in the match, and the Proteas will be sensing victory!

Nandre Burger to Alex Carey, OUT! TAKEN! Australia in trouble now! Nandre Burger bowls this on a good length and around off, Alex Carey goes hard at it with an open bat face, but the ball comes on a bit quicker. He slices it in the air and straight towards point where Dewald Brevis takes a sharp catch around his midriff. Aussies lose half their side now!

Lungi Ngidi to Aaron Hardie, OUT! CAUGHT AND BOWLED! Lungi Ngidi gets the much-needed breakthrough. Ngidi rolls his fingers through it and bowls a slower one, on a nagging length around middle and off. Aaron Hardie pushes early at it and gets it lobbed back to the right of Lungi Ngidi in his follow-through. Ngidi dives to his right and takes a decent catch to break this partnership. Aaron Hardie departs on 10(16). 

Lungi Ngidi to Xavier Bartlett, OUT! FOURTH FOR NGIDI! Lungi Ngidi puts in an extra bit of effort and bends his back to bowl a short one, cramping Xavier Bartlett for any sort of room to free his arms. Xavier Bartlett still goes through with the pull, aiming to lob Corbin Bosch at mid-wicket but hangs one straight over him. Bosch backpaddles and takes this nice and easy. 

Senuran Muthusamy to Nathan Ellis, OUT! STUMPED! A perfect arm-delivery, angling in sharply onto the batter. Nathan Ellis puts on the dancing shoes and jumps down the track but misses out on his bat swing. The ball is gathered well behind the stumps by Ryan Rickelton, who also does the rest by removing the bails. South Africa just one wicket away from the win now!

Lungi Ngidi to Adam Zampa, OUT! IN THE AIR AND GONE! Fifer for Lungi Ngidi and South Africa have bundled out the Aussies for 193, winning the game by 84 runs. Ngidi hits the hard length, angling it into the body of Zampa. The batter moves to his leg and looks to slog it over mid-wicket but hangs one straight over him. Corbin Bosch hasn't dropped anything in this contest and holds onto this as well.
