Score136 - 4

M Amir to du Plessis, OUT! In the air... taken! Faf du Plessis is out of here and this is a body blow for South Africa. Their hopes of chasing this down has been dented big time here. Amir does what he was brought on for. Excellent bowling change from Pakistan. This is slightly short and angling away from off. The line was key as Faf looks to drag his shot on the leg side. All he manages is a top edge which goes high up in the air beside the wicket. Sarfaraz calls for it and makes no mistake. The crowd here knows the importance of the wicket as they are going bonkers. Pakistan easily on top at the moment. 173 needed in 123.

I Wasim to du Plessis, Full and outside off, Faf pushes it towards cover and sets off for a single. Van der Dussen responds but then du Plessis stops. There is a run out opportunity but Imad disturbs the stumps with his left leg. It would not have mattered as Rassie was in before the throw came.

Score130 - 3

S Khan to du Plessis, FOUR! Second boundary in the over! A much-needed good one for South Africa. They would hope this is the momentum changing over. Faf du Plessis brings the slog sweep out, hits it over mid-wicket. No one in the deep and a boundary. 12 from the over. 179 needed in 132 balls.
