Into the tail of the South Africans now. Anrich Nortje is in at number 9.

Varun Chakaravarthy to Marco Jansen, OUT! KNOCKED HIM OVER! Wickets off successive overs for Varun Chakaravarthy. Googly from Varun, on a nagging length, around the off pole. Marco Jansen is lazy with his footwork and just hangs his bat out to cover the line. He fails to pick the googly and ends up defending outside the line. The ball sneaks past the inside edge to uproot the off stump. South Africa are now 77/7.

Shivam Dube to Aiden Markram, FOUR! Harshit Rana totally misjudged that and Markram breathes a sigh of relief. Good length, angling back in down the leg side. Markram backs away to create room, opens the bat face, and tries to go inside out over extra cover. But the bat turns in his hands mid-swing. His bottom hand comes off completely and he ends up slicing it high towards deep point instead. Harshit Rana charges in from deep point, then realises too late the ball's sailing back over his head. He sticks out his right hand while running backwards, but can't reach it. The ball drops just inside the boundary rope.

Shivam Dube to Marco Jansen, Excellent glovework by Jitesh Sharma. Lands on the seam and nips in a touch, on a good length, around off. Marco Jansen tries to drag that across with the pull shot, but only manages a thick inside edge. The ball bounces past the stumps and rolls to the left of Jitesh Sharma who dives full-stretch and stops it. The ball is deflected to Kuldeep to short fine leg for a single. 

Shivam Dube to Marco Jansen, Nagging length at a gentle pace, on off, Marco Jansen prods half forward and defends it under the bat.

Shivam Dube to Marco Jansen, Full and at 128.7 kph, on the leg stump. Marco Jansen chips it uppishly and towards deep square leg for a single.

Marco Jansen is in next.

Varun Chakaravarthy to Donovan Ferreira, OUT! BOWLED! 50th T20I wicket for Varun Chakaravarthy. He dishes out a fuller-length delivery, at the stumps, one that spins back in very sharply. Donovan Ferreira goes for a premeditated slog sweep across the line, but misses and hears the death rattle behind him. The ball makes an absolute mess of the stumps. The brewing 25-run partnership comes to an end. Donovan Ferreira perishes after a cameo of 20 off 15 balls. South Africa are 69/6.

Varun Chakaravarthy to Aiden Markram, Slides one onto the pads, on a fuller length. Aiden Markram walks forward and tries to steer it to mid-wicket, but gets beaten on the inside edge. The ball deflects off the front pad and rolls to the right of short fine leg. They get a leg bye.

Shivam Dube to Donovan Ferreira, Extra bounce, on a good length, outside off. Donovan Ferreira is taken aback but he does well to steer it to deep point for a single. 

Shivam Dube to Donovan Ferreira, FOUR! Brute force! Back of a length, on top of middle. Donovan Ferreira gets fed to his strength and he pulls it ruthlessly through mid-wicket for a boundary. 

Shivam Dube to Aiden Markram, Length ball, on middle, worked down to long on for a single. 

Shivam Dube to Donovan Ferreira, IN THE AIR AND PUT DOWN! Arshdeep Singh does all the hard work, but spills it. Around off, on a good length. It holds on the surface and arrives later than Ferreira expected. He goes through his shot and drags it off the toe end of the bat towards long on. Arshdeep Singh charges in off the ropes and as the ball dips on him, he dives forward, even gets both hands on the ball, but eventually grasses it. A single taken. A huge reprieve for Donovan Ferreira.

Shivam Dube to Aiden Markram, Stump-to-stump, full in length. Aiden Markram presses forward and drives it down to long off for an easy single.

Kuldeep Yadav to Donovan Ferreira, A yard behind fuller length, on the stumps. Donovan Ferreira whips it off the pads to deep backward square leg for a single.

Kuldeep Yadav to Aiden Markram, On a flatter trajectory, skidding through outside off, full in length. Aiden Markram steers it off the back foot to widish point for a single. 

Shivam Dube to Donovan Ferreira, Back of a length, wide on off. Donovan Ferreira cuts it off the back foot, a bit uppish, but wide of point. Harshit Rana from deep third shows great commitment as he runs across to his right and slides to cut it off before the ropes. Two taken. 

Shivam Dube to Donovan Ferreira, BEAUTY! Lands on the seam and nips away from a good length, around off. Donovan Ferreira gets squared up on the defence and is beaten all ends up.

Shivam Dube to Donovan Ferreira, Gentle-paced delivery, nipping away from off. Donovan Ferreira steers it to point off the back foot. 

Shivam Dube to Donovan Ferreira, Back of a length outside off. Ferreira punches it firmly back down the pitch. Dube dives across but can't get a hand to it, and the ball crashes into the stumps at the non-striker's end. Markram's already halfway down, looking for a single. He turns and dives desperately to get back into his crease.

Donovan Ferreira is in at number 7.

Shivam Dube to Corbin Bosch, OUT! CLEANED HIM UP! Instant impact for Shivam Dube upon his introduction. He lands it on a good length, and gets the ball to jag back in sharply off the deck. Corbin Bosch is cut in half as he is cramped for space. He tries to work it across the line, but due to the big gap created between the bat and pad, the ball sneaks through it and smashes back onto the stumps behind. Corbin Bosch departs on 4 (9) and South Africa are half side down on 44.

DRINKS BREAK. India have bossed up the proceedings until now and they will look to further press on by getting rid of Markram as quickly as possible. Sending Bosch ahead of Donovan Ferreira is a tactical move to deepen their batting a bit, and he will need to support his skipper and avoid any rash shots. With the presence of dew increasing over by over, gripping the ball would be a bit difficult and that's where the likes of Markram will try to exploit those conditions by batting till the end. Shivam Dube is introduced into the attack now. He replaces Hardik Pandya.

Varun Chakaravarthy to Aiden Markram, Short and on middle, Aiden wrists it to mid-wicket.

Varun Chakaravarthy to Corbin Bosch, Drags the length back, on off, Bosch carves it wide of point and picks up a single.

Varun Chakaravarthy to Corbin Bosch, DROPPED! That should have been taken. Varun gives the ball a bit of air, full and outside off, Corbin Bosch drags the sweep and hits it hard towards mid-wicket. It goes at waist height and straight to Abhishek Sharma, who fails to cling on.

Varun Chakaravarthy to Aiden Markram, Tossed up, full and outside off, Markram drives it through covers and crosses over.

Varun Chakaravarthy to Aiden Markram, Sliding onto the pads, on the shorter side, Markram is beaten on the flick and wears it on the front pad.

Hardik Pandya to Aiden Markram, FOUR! Class written all over it! Not a bad ball by any means, on a good length, on off. Aiden Markram presses forward and drives it on the up with a high elbow. Plays it between cover and mid off for a boundary.

STAT - Hardik Pandya is the FIRST India to score 1,000-plus runs and take 100 or more wickets in the T20Is. Fifth player overall to achieve this milestone in this format. 

Hardik Pandya to Corbin Bosch, Oh, that stayed low! Skidding through, on a short of a length, on middle. Bosch hangs back to deal with it and jams his bat down on the ball to adjust to the low bounce. Ekes out an inside edge onto the back pad, and the ball goes down to deep third for a single.

Hardik Pandya to Corbin Bosch, A well-directed bumper, over the right shoulder. Corbin Bosch does well to sway away and drop his wrists.
