Rohit Sharma (C)lbw b Junior Dala 11 8 2 0 137.5
1.3
J Dala to R Sharma, OUT! Dala removes Rohit for the third time! Start all the bunny talks now. Junior drops it on a length around middle, it skids a bit off the deck and stays a touch low too. Rohit is late to bring his bat down this time and wears it on the pads. A loud appeal follows to which the umpire raises the finger after a thought. Dhawan wanted to have a chat but Rohit wasn't interested. The umpire however, wants to have a check at the front foot. It is completely fine and Sharma is asked to walk away. Replays show that it seemed to be missing the leg. Almost a carbon copy of his dismissal at SuperSport Park.
Shikhar Dhawanrun out (Junior Dala) 47 40 3 0 117.5
15.1
T Shamsi to S Dhawan, OUT! Well, Dhawan is walking but we are not sure whether that is out. On description of the ball, Dhawan comes down the track and whips it through mid-wicket. Hardik always wanted two and because he took a start, it helps him. But Dhawan takes a bit longer and hence is gone for all money. Junior Dala returns a superb throw to Heinrich Klaasen at the stumps and the LED illuminates. Dhawan starts to go but the umpire wants to check - did Klaasen disturb the bails before the ball hit the timber? Does anyone care? Certainly not Gabbar. He is off. Could have waited a bit longer for the third umpire's decision.
Suresh Rainac Farhaan Behardien b Tabraiz Shamsi 43 27 5 1 159.26
9.4
T Shamsi to S Raina, OUT! Got him! Good running catch at long on! A wicket at the right time for South Africa! Shamsi loops it up around middle and off, Raina gets down on one knee and tries to hit it down the ground. Made good connection and it seemed like a biggie but... Farhaan Behardien comes across to his right from long on and takes a superb catch just near the rope. He covered it up for his misfield in a stunning manner.
Manish Pandeyc David Miller b Junior Dala 13 10 0 1 130
13.1
J Dala to M Pandey, OUT! It is a catch and since it is not Shamsi, it is not down. Dala immediately strikes on return. He lands it on a length outside off, it cuts back in, Pandey looks to help it to the leg side but the ball skids through. Beats Pandey who can only get a top edge. He does not even want to run, so disappointed is he with that shot. Still, to give Dhawan the strike, he crosses over. Knows what is going to be the end result. It is David Miller underneath the ball at long on. Another failure for Pandey.
Hardik Pandyac Heinrich Klaasen b Chris Morris 21 17 0 1 123.53
19.2
C Morris to H Pandya, OUT! Pandya is gone. Big blow. Another slower ball, on middle and leg, Pandya is way too early into his flick but gets a leading edge. The ball goes miles in the air and three men come into contention - point, the keeper and short third man. Actually only two because it is Tabraiz Shamsi at short third man who does not move a muscle. Heinrich Klaasen calls for it and takes it calmly.
MS Dhoni (W)c David Miller b Junior Dala 12 11 1 0 109.09
18.2
J Dala to MS Dhoni, OUT! Dhoni holes out. He smiles. Very rarely does one see Dhoni getting caught at the boundary, that too down the ground. A length ball outside off, Dhoni looks to go over the top and seems to hit it pretty well too. But does not have the distance. David Miller takes it with ease at long off.
Dinesh Karthiklbw b Chris Morris 13 6 3 0 216.67
19.4
C Morris to D Karthik, OUT! Well, he gets in a wicket now. The second of the over. Karthik walks across his stumps and misses his flick. The ball is straight and he is hit on his back foot. He takes the review after the umpire gives it out but starts to walk any which ways. Hawk Eye shows the impact to be in line and hitting the stumps.

Reeza Hendricksc Shikhar Dhawan b Bhuvneshwar Kumar 7 13 1 0 53.85
2.5
B Kumar to R Hendricks, OUT! The missed direct hit does not matter. Hendricks does not last long. The knuckle ball, Hendricks is early into his flick and lobs it miles in the air. Shikhar Dhawan calls for it at mid-wicket and takes it calmly.
David Millerc Axar Patel b Suresh Raina 24 23 2 1 104.35
9.1
S Raina to D Miller, OUT! Miller's struggle ends. Could this be a blessing in disguise for South Africa? A short ball, Miller looks to pull but gets more height than distance. Simple catch for Axar Patel at deep mid-wicket. 24 from 23 balls for Miller. His captain is slower than him though.
JP Duminy (C)c Rohit Sharma b Shardul Thakur 55 41 2 3 134.15
15.6
S Thakur to JP Duminy, OUT! High up in the air and Rohit Sharma takes it! Thakur is pumped up and why not? Doles a knuckle ball and serves it a touch wider outside off. Duminy gets down to smash it across the line but gets a top edge instead. Loops up high in the air and Rohit Sharma at cover takes it easily to dismiss his opposite number. Is that the game? 64 needed from 24 balls.
Heinrich Klaasen (W)c Bhuvneshwar Kumar b Hardik Pandya 7 10 0 0 70
12.5
H Pandya to H Klaasen, OUT! Straight to Bhuvi! Pandya finally gets a wicket and to be honest he has bowled really well tonight. Pitches it up outside off, Klaasen backs away and smashes it flat and hard. Doesn't get the distance as Bhunveshwar Kumar at mid off takes a reverse cup catch over his head. He immediately releases the ball as that was struck really hard. Nevertheless, dangerous Heinrich has to walk back for not much.
Christiaan Jonkerc Rohit Sharma b Bhuvneshwar Kumar 49 24 5 2 204.17
19.6
B Kumar to C Jonker, OUT! Wicket and India have won the T20I series! Well played, Jonker. Deserved a fifty for his effort though! A full toss, dipping in, Jonker couldn't put it away. Looks to go over cover but finds Rohit Sharma at the edge of the circle who takes it and throws it up in the air to celebrate the big win. INDIA BEAT SOUTH AFRICA BY 7 RUNS!
Chris Morrisb Jasprit Bumrah 4 3 1 0 133.33
16.3
J Bumrah to C Morris, OUT! Bowled 'em! Bumrah after bowling it outside off or on off, tries to keep it simple. A length ball on the stumps, Morris backs away and looks to go big. Misses and hears the death rattle.
