00:00Third game of this series out of five, India take on South Africa, live from the HBCA Stadium,
00:16Dharam Shala.
00:18India winning the toss and electing to field.
00:22It's time to say good evening to Sonny Davaskar and before that, Mommi Mabangwa.
00:30Now, Arshdeep to Quintin De Kock.
00:34I might see a little bit of lateral movement, especially with the new ball.
00:42Straight away, off the mark.
00:50Well, that looks close.
00:52Is it missing leg?
00:54Maybe that is the question here.
00:57Arshdeep wants to go upstairs.
01:00Chitesh has run to Syria, the skipper.
01:08We're just checking if there's been a bit.
01:10I think they're going to go for it.
01:12Yeah, they have taken the IFC First Bank DRS.
01:14Pitching in line, impact in line, wicket setting, original decision, not out.
01:23Going back to Madan.
01:25Madan, you need to reverse your original decision of not out to out.
01:29You're on screen.
01:32In South Africa, they've lost their first wicket for one.
01:34Oh, give in, give in, finger goes up.
01:44Will he review this?
01:48This is good bowling.
01:50Long chat.
01:51Aidan Markram, Quintin De Kock.
01:53I think the answer from the South African skipper is, mate, I don't think so.
02:00Yeah, time's up as well.
02:02India strikes again.
02:04Two and two now.
02:05Well, there you can see, he's been hit on the front pad to have crashed onto the leg stump.
02:17Not much movement, it's just the angle.
02:20And that's what he was checking with the non-striker.
02:24Did it go away too much?
02:28Just out for one this time around.
02:31Two wickets down for one run.
02:32Like you rightly said, that call, whether it's inside edge or not,
02:36has to come from front of the batter, but superb shot this.
02:40On the rise, first boundary of the innings.
02:45Hashid.
02:46Gone inside edge.
02:48A little unlucky there, Jawad Braavis.
02:51Hashid will take it.
02:52India will take it.
02:54And look at that, he's both just a little bit wide.
02:57And Braavis, sensing an opportunity to break free,
03:00has a mighty heave at it.
03:04Gets an inside edge.
03:05The front foot was nowhere near.
03:08And that is goodbye, Braavis.
03:11For just two.
03:12It's seven for three in the fourth over.
03:15Still has shit runs.
03:17Oh, a lovely shot.
03:19Good timing, good control.
03:21Didn't try and hit it too hard.
03:22That's nice to pull away.
03:29Easy pickings.
03:35That's gone, outside edge.
03:39And a pretty straightforward chance.
03:41India all over South Africa.
03:44100th wicket for Hatik Pandya.
03:46Just a little bit of a way shape.
03:52Tristan Stubbs trying to play it on the up.
03:54Almost trying to just guide it down.
03:56Hit it on its head, maybe past points or third man.
03:59And just a little bit of nip on it.
04:01Hatik Pandya, he's a superstar.
04:03Whether it's bat in hand or ball in hand.
04:06He's got the dismissal of Tristan Stubbs.
04:08Gone for nine.
04:09South Africa at 34-4.
04:10Shot.
04:14Oh, that is brilliant.
04:17They've been sweating on something like that the whole night.
04:21The beautiful shot before that.
04:25Bowling.
04:26Oh, what a start.
04:29Right on the spot.
04:30And it pegs the Stubbs back.
04:34This is short of a length on a pitch where there is some help over there.
04:38And the ball has nipped back in.
04:39Big gap between bat and pad.
04:42I think a truck could have gone through that gap.
04:45So the middle Stubbs down flying.
04:48And half the South African team is back in the pavilion of 44.
04:52And Bosch has contributed four in that.
04:58Charts.
04:59Donovan Ferreira.
05:01Out of the ground.
05:04This ball has been swinging and seaming.
05:06I'll sort it out.
05:06Skip.
05:07We'll get rid of it.
05:08Mission fours and sixes.
05:11Ball gets bad.
05:12It's hit up in the air.
05:13Should be another one.
05:15No, it goes down.
05:17Ashdeep Singh doing the hard work.
05:19Reaching.
05:20But then flows it in the end.
05:22Cluck through the on-side.
05:26That is exactly what this man can do.
05:29He's very powerful through that side.
05:31And India have fed him there.
05:36Cleaned up.
05:37That is one of the reasons why he's such a special bowler.
05:40The 50th wicket called Varun Chakravarti and an aggressive Donovan Ferreira has to make his way back.
05:47Balls that wrong one.
05:51Misses it completely.
05:53Going for another heave.
05:56Over Langone or mid-wicket.
05:59Losing his thumps.
06:00And as soon as that happened, it was good to see our team going towards Shiverman apologizing for dropping that.
06:08Catch is gone for 20.
06:0969 for 6.
06:13Oh, shoot.
06:14Will this be taken?
06:15Oh, no.
06:16Just misjudging it this time.
06:19Started running in.
06:20Harshit.
06:21Didn't pick it at all.
06:22It's been given as a boundary.
06:27No need.
06:28Marko Janssen is defeated.
06:30And it's that man once again.
06:31Varun Chakravarti.
06:33Lazy with the bat coming down.
06:36And South Africa lose yet another.
06:38This is the one.
06:39The little wrong one which comes in.
06:41Look at that gap between bat and pad.
06:45Just knocking the off stump out of its socket.
06:49Now you know why he's number one, Varun Chakravarti.
06:51If you can get your lower order batters, dangerous batters out cheaply,
06:56then you're doing a very good job for your team.
06:59Janssen gone for two.
07:0177 for seven in the 16th over.
07:05That's big.
07:06That's six.
07:08Oh, got plenty of bat on that.
07:13So, six, two in the over.
07:1492 for seven.
07:17That's up in the air.
07:18It will clear the fence.
07:23Went high up.
07:25In a very good half century.
07:30It's clubbed down the ground.
07:33Another six.
07:33That's a flat batted.
07:37That's a flat batted.
07:37He's covered all his stumps.
07:41This time he gets the edge.
07:42The finger has gone up.
07:44The finger has gone up.
07:46He's really disappointed.
07:48He thought it was there.
07:49Well, the one over extra cover, but it's Arsteep as he's done time and time again.
07:54That's as well bowled by Arsteep.
07:56You saw the other night that he was opting for that wide line.
08:00He had a couple that were called wide.
08:02He bowled a pretty long over.
08:04But on this occasion, proving why it is such a good option, just going across Aidan Markram.
08:11Markram trying to power it through extra cover.
08:14He finds the edge.
08:15It ends a good innings by the captain.
08:18He's gone for 61.
08:19South Africa, 113 for eight.
08:24That's it.
08:26He's got the wicket.
08:27Simple stomping for Dudley Sharma.
08:33Spin it across him.
08:35He'll come running down.
08:37He's missed it by a country mile as Unruf Noki.
08:39He's actually batted pretty nicely.
08:41He had a good partnership with Aidan Markram.
08:45Kuldeep, he's been difficult for all the batters, top all the batters.
08:51There's no chance for the tail ender when you're trying to look for runs.
08:55Noki has gone for 12.
08:57South Africa, 115 for nine.
09:02And it's chipped in the air.
09:04Simple catch to finish things off.
09:08So two in the over for Kuldeep.
09:11And South Africa bowled out for 117.
09:19Another googly, I assume.
09:21Yes, across the right-hander.
09:24Bartman swinging across the line.
09:27He's got an outside edge.
09:28Went in the lights a little bit, but a good catch at the end of the day for Sky, the captain.
09:32And a good outing for the Indian bowlers.
09:35Everyone picking up wickets from the seamers who started off so well.
09:41Hardik.
09:44Wonderful scenes.
09:4531 years of age today.
09:49Kuldeep Yadav, what a very good bowling performance from India.
09:53If you look at it all round, they all contributed.
09:56Excellent effort to bowl out South Africa for 117.
09:59South Africa really never got going.
10:02As you see there, only Aidan Markham holding the innings together, getting more than half the score of South Africa.
10:10And pickets falling at regular interval.
10:12Just a brief little show of a fight when Ferreira was there at the crease with Markham.
10:18But other than that, it was all India.
10:24Yeah, and the bowlers were fantastic for India.
10:27They started off swinging the ball beautifully.
10:29There's Ashti and Hashidrana.
10:32They were followed by Hardik, who got a wicket of Tristan Stubbs in his first over.
10:36Varun Chakravati bowled beautifully.
10:37I thought he was the pick of the bowlers.
10:382-4-11.
10:39And Dubé contributed with the wicket and Kuldeep picked up two in the final over the game of the innings.
10:52So there you go, win South Africa.
10:55In fact, when India come out to bat, they have their full 20 overs to bat and they need 118 to win.
11:05And he's away with a six.
11:09That's not the first time.
11:10It will not be the last time.
11:14And he's hit the first ball into the crowd.
11:20More runs.
11:23Just showing his bat.
11:25Leg by signal.
11:27Oh, Beiru not to be fooled.
11:31That's typical Abhishek Sharma.
11:35One bounce over the rope.
11:39Thrives handsomely through the offside.
11:43Now that should do his confidence a world of good.
11:47It's pine country this guy.
11:49Pine trees.
11:49That'll be four.
11:52So he's dealing in boundaries and sixes, Abhishek.
11:54Oh, that's gone a long way.
11:59This is high altitude.
12:02And you'll see plenty of sixes here once it goes into the night sky.
12:05He's timed that well.
12:09That's sweetly timed.
12:12That's a quality shot from a quality player.
12:15He's got that away.
12:21Thickish outside edge.
12:22It flies over.
12:23Shot heard.
12:27Punched away.
12:28Four more.
12:31And this is a tease for three, four fielders.
12:33As the ball reaches the fence.
12:35It goes over again.
12:41It goes a long way.
12:45Right in the slot for Abhishek.
12:48There's six more.
12:52There you go.
12:53But this time he hasn't really timed it.
12:54It's gone up in the air.
12:56That's a beautiful catch.
12:58Very well judged.
13:00It's not the easiest of venues to take catches like that.
13:03And Aidan Markram's done a fabulous job of that.
13:07He's taken a wonderful catch.
13:09But this has been a fantastic innings by Abhishek.
13:11He's taken it to the South African bowlers.
13:14He really has put them under pressure.
13:16But this is a great catch.
13:17Look at it.
13:17He's tracking back.
13:18Keeping his eye on the ball.
13:20On the last second.
13:21A little dive.
13:22Gets both hands to it.
13:25Muted celebration.
13:27Understandably.
13:28But it ends a fantastic knock by Abhishek Sharma.
13:30He's gone for 35 of 18.
13:32India are 64.
13:33Number one.
13:37Nicely done.
13:38Very nicely done.
13:43Top edge.
13:45For tutors.
13:49Four to end the power play.
13:50Eight from that over.
13:5168 for one India.
13:55Outside edge.
13:57In the end you'd say that he's found the gap really well there.
14:04Between the keeper and the slip.
14:05It's fine and it is fine enough.
14:13Another boundary of the last ball of the over.
14:15Got him.
14:15Got him.
14:19Chops it on.
14:27Really nothing delivery.
14:28He was back coming down at an angle.
14:31He was back coming down at an angle.
14:31Getting the inside edge.
14:32Back onto his stumps.
14:36South Africa breakthrough.
14:37Gail has to depart.
14:4128 of 28.
14:4292 for two.
14:43Goes over the infield this time.
14:51Pretty convincing.
14:55After 27 balls we have a boundary.
14:58We're waiting for the signal.
15:02Pull this time through the on-site.
15:04So consecutive boundaries for Surya Kumar Yadav.
15:11In the air.
15:12Who wants it?
15:14Bachman takes it.
15:16A fine running catch by yet another South African.
15:20But Surya Kumar Yadav is dismissed.
15:23He's not been able to.
15:25You can see that it's gone up in the air.
15:27Instead of going the distance.
15:29It's only gone up in the air.
15:31And well inside the boundary.
15:32So maybe till he starts to really get going.
15:37He should look to keep that shot in cold storage.
15:41Because it's getting him out.
15:42And India doesn't require.
15:44Surya Kumar Yadav is going only 12 runs.
15:47109 for three.
15:51That's gone a long way.
15:53That's a very good hit.
15:55Just two runs away now India.
15:58That's it in the air.
15:59But in the gap.
16:02And trickle on to the boundary.
16:04As India take a 2-1 lead in this series.
16:08Winning the third game by seven wickets.
16:10A very, very good performance.
16:13Especially from the Indian bowlers.
16:15As they're restricted South Africa to just 117.
16:18And now in the 16th over.
16:21Reaching that target with seven wickets in hand.
16:23Yeah, the bowlers.
16:28All of them amongst wickets.
16:30A couple for Varun, Kuldeep, Parshdeep and Harshit.
16:33And super figures restricting South Africa to just 117.
16:37That could have been a different story had Markram got a little bit of help.
16:40Top knocked for 61 of 46.
16:42But it wasn't enough.
16:43India chasing that down in the 16th over.
16:46Nabushek.
16:48Fiery opening partnership there.
16:5235 of 18.
16:53That kind of broke the back.
16:55And India winning convincingly.
16:58That's seven wickets.
16:59It goes 2-1 up in this five-match series.
17:01It goes 2-1 up in this five-match series.
