Batting R B 4s 6s SR
Sanju Samson (W)b Marco Jansen 0 3 0 0 0
0.3
Marco Jansen to Sanju Samson, OUT! CLEANED HIM UP! What a start for South Africa! Marco Jansen gets rid of the centurion from the first game! Jansen goes slightly fuller, shaping back in, on leg, Sanju Samson gives himself room and swings through the line to launch it back over the bowler's head. Plays down the wrong line and gets beaten on the outside edge. The ball goes through to uproot the leg stump. 107 at Durban but a 3-ball duck here in Gqeberha for Samson.
Abhishek Sharmac Marco Jansen b Gerald Coetzee 4 5 1 0 80
1.5
Gerald Coetzee to Abhishek Sharma, OUT! IN THE AIR AND GONE! Gerald Coetzee gets his man this time! Both Indian openers back in the hut in 11 balls. South Africa could not have asked for a better start. Coetzee bends his back and digs it in short from over the wicket, around off, Abhishek Sharma gets on his toes to get on top of the bounce but the ball climbs onto him and he fails to ride the bounce. Abhishek goes for the pull but ends up getting a top edge that goes straight up towards short fine leg. Marco Jansen circles under it by moving to his left and takes a safe catch. Abhishek is asked to wait by the umpire as they check if it is the second bouncer of the over. The replays show that the ball is well below the shoulder and gives Abhishek the marching orders.
Suryakumar Yadav (C)lbw b Andile Simelane 4 9 0 0 44.44
3.6
Andile Simelane to Suryakumar Yadav, OUT! LBW! MAIDEN T20I WICKET FOR SIMELANE! And it is the big wicket of the Indian skipper. Simelana dishes out the yorker from over the wicket, on off and middle, Suryakumar Yadav premeditates as he walks inside the line of the ball and tries to work it away on the leg side. The fullness of the ball catches him by surprise as it scoots under the bat to rap him on the low on the pads. He is trapped right in front of the stumps and the umpire has no hesitation in raising the finger. SKY has a word with Tilak and decides not to take the review. Indian top order has been blown away. They are now 15/3 in 4 overs.
Tilak Varmac David Miller b Aiden Markram 20 20 1 1 100
7.6
Aiden Markram to Tilak Varma, OUT! FLAT IN THE AIR AND TAKEN! Where did that come from? David Miller, you beauty! This is a fuller-length delivery, on a flatter trajectory, around off, Tilak Varma clears his front foot to loft it over cover but ends up hitting very hard and flat to the right of cover. David Miller leaps and stretches his right hand out and plucks the ball out of thin air. Takes a stunning one-handed catch and also maintains the ball in his hand while tumbling over. Tilak Varma cannot believe and walks back to the sheds with a dejected look on his face. A run-a-ball 20 from him. India 4 down now.
Axar Patelrun out (Nqabayomzi Peter) 27 21 4 0 128.57
11.5
Nqabayomzi Peter to Hardik Pandya, OUT! RUN OUT! An unfortunate way to get out for Axar! India have now lost half their side. Floated up there by Peter, on off, Hardik Pandya drills it down the deck. Hits it along the carpet towards the bowler but Peter does well to stay low and get a hand to the ball on his right. Axar Patel at the bowling end is backing up too far. The ball goes off the hands and crashes into the stumps at the bowling end. Axar starts walking off as soon as the ball hits the stumps. It is referred upstairs and the replays confirm that Peter did get a hand to it and Axar was well out of his crease. India lose half of their side now and are being outplayed by the Proteas here.

15.2
Nqabayomzi Peter to Rinku Singh, OUT! IN THE AIR AND TAKEN! It just keeps getting worse for India now as the last recognized batting pair has been broken! Nqabayomzi Peter darts in a fuller-length delivery, right in front of the stumps. It skids off the surface and goes quickly to the batter. Rinku Singh sits down and looks to sweep it aerially but fails to get his bat underneath the ball properly. The top edge is found and it goes towards the short fine region where Gerald Coetzee takes a simple catch. Rinku Singh walks back on 9 and India struggling big time at 87/6.

2.5
Arshdeep Singh to Ryan Rickelton, OUT! IN THE AIR AND TAKEN! Arshdeep Singh draws the first blood for India and he continues to strike inside the Powerplays with the new ball in hand. A good pace change from Singh as he slows it up on a fuller length. Angles it onto the pads. Ryan Rickelton misses to read the pace off and commits on the shot a bit early. He tries to flick it across the line and over the in-field but ends up lobbing it straight down the throat of Rinku Singh at deep fine who takes a fine catch.
Reeza Hendricksb Varun Chakaravarthy 24 21 3 1 114.29
7.4
Varun Chakaravarthy to Reeza Hendricks, OUT! CASTLED! Wickets off successive overs for Varun Chakaravarthy! After being hit for a boundary on the previous ball, Varun pulls the length back and dishes out the googly, flatter and shorter, on middle and leg, Reeza Hendricks stays on the back foot and tries to keep it out with a straight bat. Does not pick the googly from the hand or off the deck. The ball lands and spins back in to cut him in half as it goes past the inside edge and hits the leg stump. South Africa lose their third wicket. Hendricks goes for 24 (21).
Aiden Markram (C)b Varun Chakaravarthy 3 8 0 0 37.5
5.2
Varun Chakaravarthy to Aiden Markram, OUT! CLEANED HIM UP! Aiden Markram looked unsettled since that blow to the helmet and he departs now. Instant impact for Varun Chakaravarthy. Slips in the googly and it is slower through the air, on the fuller side, on off,  Aiden Markram is tempted by the flight as he clears his front leg to go across the line. The ball turns in enough to go under the bat and crashes into the off stump. South Africa are now 33/2, needing 92 runs from 88 balls.

10.5
Varun Chakaravarthy to Marco Jansen, OUT! OUTFOXED! Varun Chakaravarthy is on a roll here! He gets his third wicket and the Proteas batters have no answers to his googlies at the moment! Varun Chakaravarthy floats it up and dishes out a deceptive googly. It drifts into the batter and pitches on a fuller length. Draws Jansen on the front foot. He looks to heave it across the line but does not read the wrong'un off the deck and the ball sneaks through the gap between the bat and the pad before clattering into the stumps. South Africa are 4 wickets down now. They are now 64/4, needing 61 runs from 55 balls.
Heinrich Klaasen (W)c Rinku Singh b Varun Chakaravarthy 2 3 0 0 66.67
12.1
Varun Chakaravarthy to Heinrich Klaasen, OUT! IN THE AIR AND TAKEN! Varun Chakaravarthy picks his man and it is another low score for Klaasen. India are well and truly seeing a chance here. A conventional leg-break from Varun this time around, flat and full around off. Heinrich Klaasen gets his front foot out of the way to create room for himself. He fails to get his bat underneath the ball and goes through the shot. Lofts it aerially but it goes off the toe-end of the willow. It travels only as far as the long off fielder where Rinku Singh takes a safe catch, running to his left.
David Millerb Varun Chakaravarthy 0 1 0 0 0
12.2
Varun Chakaravarthy to David Miller, OUT! KNOCKED HIM OVER! Chakravarthy is on a wicket-hunt here. David Miller goes for a golden duck and South Africa are in all sorts of trouble now. Varun Chakaravarthy changes the angle of attack for the left-hander and bowls from around the stumps. Drifts it into the stumps and lands it fuller in length, just around off, David Miller does not pick up the googly and plays inside the line of the ball. It grips, turns and beats the outside edge before crashing into the off stump. David Miller stands there in disbelief. Varun Chakaravarthy registers his maiden T20I 5-fer and he has turned the game on its head now. 
Andile Simelaneb Ravi Bishnoi 7 10 0 0 70
15.4
Ravi Bishnoi to Andile Simelane, OUT! TIMBER! Ravi Bishnoi gets in on the furniture-disturbing act! Dishes out the googly, fuller and on middle and leg, Andile Simelane sees the ball in his arc and cannot resist himself. It was a bit too full for the big heave across the line but Andile still goes for it. Gets down on a knee and swings but gets beaten on the inside edge as the ball spins in and clips the leg stump. Simelane goes for 7 (10). South Africa are now 86/7, needing 39 runs in 26 balls.
