10.4: L Ngidi to V Kohli, Slices it over point and collects a brace.

10.3: L Ngidi to V Kohli, FOUR! Kaboom! Kohli isn't afraid to take on the short ball. Is quick to rock back and pulls it with authority over square leg. Zondo from deep backward square leg sprints to his left, puts in a slide and stops it with his left hand. However, the momentum takes him through and the ball slips out of his hand and trickles to the fence. The Delhi lads raise a 50-run association with that.

7.5: L Ngidi to V Kohli, FOUR! Shot! This time off the sweet spot! Ngidi pounds in another short ball but without much venom. Virat rocks back and pulls it with aplomb over deep square leg for a one-bounce boundary. 50 comes up for India in 47 balls.

5.5: L Ngidi to S Dhawan, More runs! Four Byes this time! Ngidi hits it hard on the deck and it shapes away too much. Dhawan tries fetching it from outside off but the ball is out of his reach. Poor Klaasen dives full length to his left but even he can't get to the ball. It races away towards the third man fence.

5.4: L Ngidi to V Kohli, Flicks it with ease through mid-wicket to get to the other end.

5.3: L Ngidi to V Kohli, FOUR! Kohli nearly falls in the trap here! He smiles but tell you what, he would have had his heart in his mouth. Ngidi shakes his head and walks back to his run-up area. There is a leg gully in place so Ngidi bowls it short and down the leg side and forces the Indian skipper to have a go at it.

4.4: M Morkel to S Dhawan, An appeal for a caught down the leg side! Not given! Instead Aleem Dar stretches his arms to call it a wide! Shorter in length down the leg side, Shikhar looks to help it away but seems to have missed it. South Africa appeal but it's turned down instantly.

4.3: M Morkel to S Dhawan, What a take by Klaasen but there is no chunk of wood involved. Shortish delivery down the leg side, Dhawan gets it off his thigh pad as he fails to get going with his attempted glance. Heinrich quickly dives to his right and plucks it with one hand.
