Aiden Markramst Alex Carey b Nathan Lyon 34 37 6 1 91.89
11.3
N Lyon to A Markram, OUT! STUMPED! Beautiful ball from Lyon and excellent glovework from Carey. Nice flight outside off, Aiden lunges forward to defend but misses. The ball lands, then drifts away, with some extra bounce. Alex Carey collects and then whips off the bails in a flash. He does not even bother appealing, as he is so confident. The square leg umpire standing at point though, refers it upstairs. Replays show that while trying to play the drive, Markram dragged his foot out and could not quite drag it back in before the bails came off. The 79-run opening stand is broken.
Quinton de Kock (W)c Mitchell Starc b Nathan Lyon 52 51 7 0 101.96
17.4
N Lyon to de Kock, OUT! Caught! Second wicket for Australia and both have gone to Lyon. De Kock gets to his half century and then throws it away. Full and outside off, Quinton looks to play against the line but is defeated by the away turn. Gets a leading edge which is calmly taken by Mitchell Starc at backward point. Got carried away a touch, did QdK. Now, into the soft underbelly of that middle order. Will that stand up today?
Faf du Plessis (C)c Mitchell Starc b Jason Behrendorff 100 94 7 2 106.38
42.6
J Behrendorff to du Plessis, OUT! Caught at short third man! No daddy hundred for Faf. He gets to a century and then departs. The slower ball does the trick. The off cutter outside off, Faf looks to swipe across the line but is early into the shot. Gets a thick top edge which lobs in the air and settles into the hands of Mitchell Starc at short third man. End of a brilliant knock nevertheless and the 151-run stand is broken.
Rassie van der Dussenc Glenn Maxwell b Pat Cummins 95 97 4 4 97.94
49.6
Pat Cummins to van der Dussen, OUT! CAUGHT! No century for Rassie but what an innings it has been. 95 from just 97 balls, with 4 fours and 4 sixes. Took Australia by the horns and pummeled them. A short ball, outside off, van der Dussen leaps and pulls it towards deep mid-wicket. Glenn Maxwell at the fence is a few yards in, hence has to leap. But he takes a superb catch and then signals the crowd to quieten down. Heartbreak for Rassie but take a bow, sir. Fabulous innings. SOUTH AFRICA FINISH ON 325/6!
JP Duminyc Marcus Stoinis b Mitchell Starc 14 13 1 0 107.69
46.5
M Starc to JP Duminy, OUT! Excellent catch by Marcus Stoinis and Duminy's final ODI innings is cut short. A short ball, outside off, JP swats a pull wide of long on. Initially, it seems to have found the gap but Marcus Stoinis covers good ground to his left and takes a sharp catch. He claims it immediately but Duminy is not going anywhere. The umpires refer it upstairs with the soft signal as NOT OUT. However, in the first replay, it is clear that the catch is clean. The crowd gives a standing ovation to JP Duminy. Thank you, sir.
Dwaine Pretoriusb Mitchell Starc 2 5 0 0 40
48.5
M Starc to D Pretorius, OUT! BOWLED! Perfect yorker and Starc gets his second wicket. Probably one of the rare good balls that he has bowled all afternoon. This is around middle, swings in late, beats Pretorius' bat and boom. Onto the stumps. 26 WORLD CUP WICKETS for Mitchell Starc, equalling Glenn McGrath for most wickets in a single edition of the World Cup.

39.1
D Pretorius to D Warner, OUT! Caught! That is a stunner from Chris Morris and is that the game? What a catch. A length ball, around middle, Warner stays leg side of the ball and looks to heave it through the on side. But the ball hits the inner half of the bat and hence, he does not get much elevation. That shot was on because mid on was brought up just before the first ball was about to be bowled. The ball then goes wide of mid on but Chris Morris flies to his left and takes it two-handed! He then gets up and stands with a broad smile with the crowd applauding. Excellent catch and now, time to applaud the batsman. Terrific knock, albeit in a losing cause. End of a 108-run stand, 99 more needed from 65 balls.
Aaron Finch (C)c Aiden Markram b Imran Tahir 3 4 0 0 75
2.1
I Tahir to A Finch, OUT! Caught! Straight to the man. Tahir is off on his marathon run! Outside off, Finch punches it uppishly through the covers and hits it straight to Aiden Markram. He takes a sharp catch going to his right. So South Africa have won half the battle. Got rid of the skipper. The win prediction has gone to 80 percent. Get Warner soon and that will be 100.
Usman Khawajab Kagiso Rabada 18 14 3 0 128.57
48.1
K Rabada to U Khawaja, OUT! BOWLED! Khawaja has played that back onto the stumps! Usman stands there in remorse while Rabada smiles. It is not a wry smile, it is just a genuine one. He too, agrees that Khawaja is a bit unlucky. A full toss outside off, Uzzie gets across and looks to paddle but hits it from the bottom half of the bat onto the stumps! Well tried, brave lad.
Steve Smithlbw b Dwaine Pretorius 7 6 1 0 116.67
6.3
D Pretorius to S Smith, OUT! LBW! Smith is gone as well! Oh dear... Australia are hastening downhill pretty quickly. A length ball, outside off, Steve gets across to flick but misses and is hit high on the left thigh, above the knee roll. Pretorius appeals, umpire Dharmasena thinks for a while and then raises his finger! Smith stands there in disappointment, then walks across to his partner, has a chat but then decides to go off. Would not have mattered even if he had reviewed. Ball Tracker shows it to be clipping the top of the bails.
Marcus Stoinisrun out (Kagiso Rabada) 22 34 4 0 64.71
18.3
I Tahir to D Warner, OUT! RUN OUT! Stoinis is a yard short. Full and down the leg side, Warner turned it towards short fine leg and set off for the single but then stopped, looking at Stoinis. However, the Victorian came charging across and Warner set off once again. Kagiso Rabada fields the ball and returns a good throw to de Kock who collects it to his left and parries it behind onto the stumps! He appeals and it is referred upstairs. Replays find that Stoinis is gone. The 62-run stand is broken.
Glenn Maxwellc Quinton de Kock b Kagiso Rabada 12 20 1 0 60
24.1
K Rabada to G Maxwell, OUT! Caught behind! Whoa, QdK, take a bow! That was a stunner. A short ball outside off, Maxwell looks to pull but the ball takes the outside edge. It flies behind but de Kock leaps in the air stretches out his right glove and takes it! De Kock had already taken a stunner to dismiss Virat Kohli earlier in the tournament and he takes this one towards the end of the tournament.
Alex Carey (W)c Aiden Markram b Chris Morris 85 69 11 1 123.19
45.2
C Morris to A Carey, OUT! Caught in the deep! Fighting knock from Carey comes to an end. He tried very hard to take Australia home but the task is too steep. A cutter outside off, Carey backs away and tries to carve it over cover but finds Aiden Markram at sweeper, who comes running in and takes a diving catch! The entire Protean unit mobs him. That surely should be the game? 51 more needed from 28 balls.
Pat Cumminsc JP Duminy b Andile Phehlukwayo 9 15 1 0 60
44.4
A Phehlukwayo to Pat Cummins, OUT! Caught! The 45-run stand is broken. Another slower ball fetches a wicket. This is also at 106 kph. On a length outside off, Cummins looks to go big, coming forward and aiming for a home run in baseball, but only manages to sky it high in the air. JP Duminy comes running in from long off and takes it Australian style. 54 more needed from 32 balls.
Mitchell Starcb Kagiso Rabada 16 11 1 1 145.45
48.5
K Rabada to M Starc, OUT! BOWLED! Full and straight, Starc swings hard but misses. The ball hits the timber and Rabada gives Starc a send-off.

49.5
A Phehlukwayo to N Lyon, OUT! Caught! That ends the game. SOUTH AFRICA WIN BY 10 RUNS. Andile takes the last wicket of the match. A length ball around off, Lyon gets down and mows a slog towards mid-wicket. But he finds Aiden Markram in the deep running to his left who completes an easy catch.
