South Africa

Batting R B 4s 6s SR
Quinton de Kock (W)st Alex Carey b Glenn Maxwell 22 16 0 2 137.5
5.1
G Maxwell to de Kock, OUT! STUMPED! Maxwell's very good spell continues! He sees de Kock make room and also step out. Follows him and also bowls it quicker. De Kock tries to force it through the off side but that shot was never on. He misses and Carey behind the stumps, takes the bails off with ease. Quinton who started to struggle after the Powerplay departs and Australia need to keep taking wickets if they are to stem the run flow.
Reeza Hendricksc Ben McDermott b Nathan Coulter-Nile 19 8 3 1 237.5
2.5
N Coulter-Nile to R Hendricks, OUT! That ends the cameo from Hendricks! That is how every innings will be described tonight. A short ball, much better than the previous ones, coming in at around face height. Hendricks looks to pull again but this time, is cramped for room. Gets a top edge which does not quite clear the fence. Simple catch for Ben McDermott at the fence. Much-needed wicket for Australia.
Faf du Plessis (C)c Glenn Maxwell b Billy Stanlake 27 15 4 0 180
6.6
B Stanlake to du Plessis, OUT! Excellent catch by Maxwell! Great presence of mind by Glenn Maxwell. A short ball, around off, du Plessis pulls it over mid-wicket but does not quite have the timing. For a second, it seems like it will clear the ropes. However, Glenn Maxwell stationed at the mid-wicket fence, watches the ball till the last moment, then leaps, takes the catch, realizes that he is going over, parries it up in the air, comes out and then gobbles it!
Heinrich Klaasenc Glenn Maxwell b Nathan Coulter-Nile 12 6 2 0 200
8.2
N Coulter-Nile to H Klaasen, OUT! Klaasen holes out! Nathan bowls the slower ball on middle, Klaasen tries to clear long on but does not get the elevation he wanted. Maxwell in the deep runs ahead and takes a nice catch. A good start to the penultimate over, a run and a wicket.
David Millerc D'Arcy Short b Andrew Tye 11 10 1 0 110
9.1
A Tye to D Miller, OUT! Another one bites the dust! A full toss outside off, Miller reaches out to it and hits it uppishly towards sweeper cover. Short there runs in a little and holds onto it. Killer Miller is walking back and Australia fighting back well here.
Farhaan Behardiennot out 3 2 0 0 150
Chris Morrisc Alex Carey b Andrew Tye 0 1 0 0 0
9.3
A Tye to C Morris, OUT! EDGED AND TAKEN! Morris bags a duck and the good passage of play for Australia continues. This is full and outside off, Morris swings but the ball takes the outside edge and goes into the mitts of the keeper. Second in the over for Tye and the first half of the final over belongs to Australia.

Batting R B 4s 6s SR
Aaron Finch (C)b Lungi Ngidi 7 6 1 0 116.67
1.6
L Ngidi to A Finch, OUT! TIMBER! The dropped catch has not cost South Africa much! Ngidi draws first blood and he is pumped up. A wild swing there, a blind swing I should say. Finch comes down the track and tries to go over the leg side without watching the ball. He misses by a long way as the ball stays a touch low and shatters the stumps behind. Finch walks back disappointed and South Africa needed this wicket. They will try and get things under their control now.
Chris Lynnb Chris Morris 14 10 3 0 140
2.6
C Morris to C Lynn, OUT! BOWLED 'EM! No. 3 goes down and it is a corker of a yorker to get the dangerous Lynn. Chris fails to bring his bat down in time and the ball hits the stumps. Two wickets in the over for Morris and now the target looks a far-fetched one.
D'Arcy Shortc Andile Phehlukwayo b Chris Morris 0 1 0 0 0
2.4
C Morris to D Short, OUT! STRAIGHT TO THE MAN! Short bags a golden duck! Full and outside off, it is in the zone for Short. He hits it but straight into the hands of Phehlukwayo at covers who takes an easy catch. Australia have lost two in quick succession and are in trouble now. They need 83 in 44.
Glenn Maxwellc Farhaan Behardien b Lungi Ngidi 38 23 2 2 165.22
9.6
L Ngidi to G Maxwell, OUT! A wicket from the final ball! A high full toss, Maxwell tries to go big but does not get it off the middle. It lobs towards Behardien who comes running in from long on and takes it. Customary handshakes going on now as SOUTH AFRICA WIN BY 21 RUNS!
Marcus Stoinisc sub b Andile Phehlukwayo 5 3 1 0 166.67
3.5
A Phehlukwayo to M Stoinis, OUT! Australia are falling like nine pins and they are now staring down the barrel. Andile bowls it full and wide outside off, Stoinis drives it square on the off side, does not keep it down and substitute Aiden Markram at point takes an easy catch. Stoinis walks back cheaply too.
Ben McDermottc Quinton de Kock b Andile Phehlukwayo 4 6 0 0 66.67
5.2
A Phehlukwayo to Ben McDermott, OUT! Caught behind! 5th wicket down for Australia and a different mode of dismissal for McDermott this time. A length ball, around middle, Ben gets across a long way and tries to lap-pull. However, he barely makes any contact. In fact, the ball takes the feather of the bat and goes behind. De Kock celebrates and Phehlukwayo appeals. Up goes the umpire's finger!
Alex Carey (W)c Heinrich Klaasen b Tabraiz Shamsi 8 7 0 0 114.29
6.6
T Shamsi to A Carey, OUT! Carey holes out! He just had to go for it and falls in the attempt of doing so. Uses his feet to this tossed up delivery. It was bowled nice and slow. Carey tries to clear long off but does not get the distance he would have liked. Klaasen there takes it above his head. 49 more needed in 18. Maxwell will need to do this all by himself.
