L Ngidi to I Wasim, Once again an over ends with a dot! Full and on off, Imad jams it out to cover. He wants a run but is sent back. The fielder has a shy at the keeper's end but misses. Imad's dive would have saved him though. Another huge over, 11 from it.

L Ngidi to I Wasim, Lovely batting! Slower ball and on middle, Imad pushes it with soft hands towards long on and takes two. The weight was perfect on that shot.

Score275 - 4

L Ngidi to I Wasim, Good fielding! Good team work! This is thumped down the ground towards long on. Morris there runs to his right and then dives, pushes it towards long off where Duminy picks it and throws it to the bowler. Two taken. The 50-run stand is up and it has come in only 26 balls. Due to this stand, something around 320 looks possible.

L Ngidi to H Sohail, Slower one on off, Sohail is foxed by the lack of pace. He pushes it to mid off.

18:25 (IST) Jun 23

Lungi Ngidi is back! Will not bowl his full quota today, given that he has been very expensive. 6-0-41-0 so far. Can he provide a soothing balm in the death overs?

Score261 - 4

C Morris to H Sohail, In the air... just out of reach! Morris bowls a slower one outside off, Haris ends up slicing it towards cover. Tahir in the deep runs to his left and Ngidi from covers runs back. The former has a better chance to take it, he stretches both his hands out but can't get to it. The ball then rolls towards the fence but Ngidi pulls it back in. Two taken.

A Phehlukwayo to H Sohail, FOUR! Not off the middle but Sohail gets the desired result. Another slower one which is fuller in length. Haris looks to slog it but it goes off the inner half through mid-wicket. It is away from the fielder in the deep and it races to the fence. 16 from this over and 29 from the last two.

A Phehlukwayo to H Sohail, SIX! Over the fielder! That has been misjudged horribly! Everything going wrong for South Africa at the moment. Phehlukwayo bowls it fuller and outside off, Sohail smashes it flat towards long off. Duminy there runs in but then realizes that the ball is going over him. Too late and it carries over the ropes. 250 up for Pakistan.
