Kohli goes just after hitting a huge six! Engelbrecht takes another great catch, just what SA needed.

 

[adharcric]

Superb piece of fielding. Come on boys!

 

[Protean]

Game has just started again, revised target for SA is 116 from 25 overs, after bowling out India for 159. This will be a difficult chase!

 

[Langeveldt]

Damn, in trouble at 44/4, skip still in though

 

[Pratters]

Tight game here...

 

[Protean]

Tight game here...

Indeed, India bowling really well but the keeping and catching, not so much.

 

[Pratters]

Yeah... pretty much.

 

[Pratters]

Poor shot. I have no clue which team win it from here though.

 

[Protean]

Eish, another wicket goes, not looking good for SA here.

 

[Goughy]

Would be remarkable if SA wins this.

9 an over with 5 wkts left is a tough ask.

 

[duffer]

Steep ask for the Saffies to get up from here.

 

[Protean]

Another goes, looks like it's game over now.

 

[Pratters]

Again, Goswami misses it. Adams doesn't last long though, out next ball. India on top now.

9 an over with 5 wkts left is a tough ask.

With only 5 overs left at that point, it wasn't as steep a task that I would term it remarkable. Tough would be a fair enough word to describe it though given these players wouldn't have experience of hitting and pressure situations like the senior players.

 

[duffer]

A couple of big hits and the whole thing changes. I still reckon SA can do this.

 

[duffer]

Not out on the stumping but a dot ball is still gold.

 

[Pratters]

The incapibility of hitting fours is really costing South Africa here. When was the last time a four was hit?

The inside edge from the Kaul yorker

Yep. Really poor batting. Even that disgusting full toss was missed.

 

[duffer]

Need 19 off the last over here. C'mon India, hold your nerve lads.
