30.3 : South Africa:135/4

30.3: J Bumrah to H Klaasen, OUT! Great reflex catch by the Indian skipper! After bowling a couple of heavy balls, Bumrah tries the slower one and dishes it full and wide outside off. Klaasen senses the opportunity to blast it through the line but fails to beat the fielder at short cover. It's struck ferociously but Kohli stationed there grabs a terrific low catch. Made that look ridiculously easy. Another blow to South Africa as they lose a positive looking batsman in Heinrich Klaasen.

OUT! Jasprit Bumrah gets rid of Heinrich Klaasen (22). South Africa 135/4 in 30.3 overs

06:34 PM (IST)

29.6 : South Africa:135/3

29.6: S Thakur to H Klaasen, A well-directed short ball, Klaasen pulls it across the line. Not entirely in control but it rolls behind square leg for a single.

06:33 PM (IST)

29.5 : South Africa:134/3

29.5: S Thakur to H Klaasen, Fuller and around off, it's punched down the ground and goes on one bounce over the bowler. The mid off fielder quickly gets across to his right to stop it and the batsmen from crossing over.

06:32 PM (IST)

Slight hold up in play. Heinrich Klaasen wants to change his head gear.

06:31 PM (IST)

29.4 : South Africa:134/3

29.4: S Thakur to H Klaasen, FOUR! Fine shot! Klaasen is beginning to open up. This time he gives a little bit of charge to the bowler, takes the full ball head on and lofts it over mid off for a boundary.

06:31 PM (IST)

29.3 : South Africa:130/3

29.3: S Thakur to H Klaasen, Full and on off, Klaasen has played that off the front foot and into the ground.

06:29 PM (IST)

28.6 : South Africa:129/3

28.6: J Bumrah to H Klaasen, FOUR! Now, take that for a response from Klaasen. Once again he is quick to pick the short ball and nails his pull shot to the deep mid-wicket fence. Bumrah has a smile on his face. 8 from the over, more like a drop of water in the desert.

06:28 PM (IST)

28.5 : South Africa:125/3

28.5: J Bumrah to H Klaasen, Here is the response from a fast bowler. Yes, it's a bouncer but being a keeper, Heinrich knows all these traits of a bowler. He anticipates this bumper and easily evades.

06:27 PM (IST)

28.4 : South Africa:125/3

28.4: J Bumrah to H Klaasen, FOUR! This will release some pressure. Klaasen camps back inside the crease, fetches a length ball from outside off and powers it over mid-wicket for a cracking boundary. He looks a bit like Martin Guptill and now he has played one shot like him.

06:27 PM (IST)

28.3 : South Africa:121/3

28.3: J Bumrah to H Klaasen, Once again it's little short in length, around middle, Heinrich taps it down to mid-wicket. Not finding the gaps and as a result the strike is not rotating enough.

06:24 PM (IST)

27.6 : South Africa:121/3

27.6: H Pandya to K Zondo, Shows the full face of the bat and defends the ball off the back foot. The runs have dried up and no real intent shown by the current pair to score runs. Maybe, they want to take it deep and then open their arms.

06:24 PM (IST)

27.5 : South Africa:121/3

27.5: H Pandya to K Zondo, Short in length and around off, too close to the body and Khaya tries to cut. Fails to make any contact and Dhoni fumbles slightly while collecting the ball.
