Match over
Pakistan Inning Pakistan Inning South Africa Inning
3.1 : 3.1: B Hendricks to F Zaman, OUT! High in the air and Zaman is gone! Falls cheaply again. Hendricks gets his maiden ODI scalp. Left-armer gets left-hander. A length ball, around middle, Zaman looks to tuck it to the leg side but only skies it high in the air. Kagiso Rabada gets under it at short mid-wicket and takes it comfortably. Decent start for the debutant.
3.2 : 3.2: B Hendricks to B Azam, FOUR! Catch it! was the call from the bowler and fielders. Quinton de Kock dives full length to his left but couldn't reach that one. Babar starts off with a boundary. This one is a short length ball on the hips, Azam comes inside the line and glances it fine on the leg side. Too close for comfort though!
4.5 : 4.5: D Steyn to B Azam, FOUR! Poor one follows the good ball. Short and wide outside off, Babar frees his arms and cuts this away through the covers off his back foot. Beats the infield and goes to the fence.
5.2 : 5.2: B Hendricks to Imam, FOUR! Imam takes a couple of steps down the track, makes room and slashes this short ball outside off over the point region. That is amazing utilisation of the fielding restrictions in the PowerPlay.
9.2: B Hendricks to B Azam, FOUR! Short and on the middle and leg line, Babar stands tall and pulls it away behind square leg for a boundary. That one sat up to be hit, not much pace on it.
9.5 : 9.5: B Hendricks to Imam, FOUR! Not off the middle of the bat but Imam gets four. A length ball on off, the southpaw charges down the wicket and hits it back past mid on to the fence.
10.1 : 10.1: K Rabada to B Azam, FOUR! Stand and deliver stuff from Babar Azam. A fuller one on middle and it is has been dealt with a straight bat by the batsman. The ball runs to the fence, no fielder moved there. Lovely on the eye!
15.3 : 15.3: K Rabada to B Azam, FOUR! Good timing! It's uppish but in the gap! A length ball angling into the batsman, Babar gets forward and across before lifting his flick over mid-wicket for a boundary.
18.4 : 18.4: A Phehlukwayo to Imam, FOUR! That's a fine, fine shot! Wonderful footwork by Imam. He shimmies down the track to a length ball and smashes it over the bowler's head. Mid on and mid off are up, a boundary results.
19.6 : 19.6: T Shamsi to B Azam, FOUR! That went like a bullet to the fence! Shamsi drags his length short around leg, Babar picks it early and quickly goes back to pull it thunderously through mid-wicket. The fielder in the deep dives near the fence but to no avail. Fifty up for Azam, his 10th in ODIs. Continues with good form.
23.5 : 23.5: T Shamsi to B Azam, SIX! HUGE! Nice from Azam. Loopy ball on middle and leg, Babar gets low and swipes it high over square leg. The ball goes into the stands for a biggie.
24.3 : 24.3: D Steyn to Imam, FOUR! 5th ODI fifty for Imam and he continues his amazing form in this format. What a way to get it. Short ball outside off, Imam hops and cuts it over point. The ball beats the man at third man and crosses the ropes. He has a good conversion rate in ODIs too.
25.6 : 25.6: T Shamsi to B Azam, FOUR! Lovely short to end the over. Leg spinner dragged down. Babar rocks back and pulls this through mid-wicket for a boundary. 8 runs from it.
26.1 : 26.1: D Steyn to Imam, DROPPED and FOUR! Oh dear! Shamsi has put down Imam at mid off. Back of a length ball outside off, Imam shimmies down and looks to slap it over mid off. He hits it to Shamsi there who cannot hold on to it. What adds insult to injury is that the ball cannot be stopped before the ropes and Imam gets a boundary for it.
26.4 : 26.4: D Steyn to B Azam, OUT! Three reds! Pakistan lose their review and what a time to get a wicket. He was deprived of one on the very first ball of the over, but no one could stop him on this occasion. Serves this on the leg stump, Azam shuffles across and looks to flicks it away but misses it. Steyn roars and the umpire raises his finger. Babar has a chat and takes it up but Hawk Eye doesn't help him. He has to walk back after a well payed 69. Partnership of 132 comes to a close.
27.1 : 27.1: T Shamsi to Imam, FOUR! A bit short outside off, Imam waits for it and cuts it fine. Gets it past the short third man and away to the fence. Good start to the over.
27.4 : 27.4: T Shamsi to M Hafeez, FOUR! What confidence. Just faced a couple of balls before this and now takes on the in-field. Comes down the track and lofts this over mid off for a boundary.
27.5 : 27.5: T Shamsi to M Hafeez, FOUR! Excellent batting! Knows where the fielders are and places his shot to perfection. Outside off, Hafeez cuts it to the vacant third man region and gets back-to-back boundaries.
29.2 : 29.2: B Hendricks to M Hafeez, FOUR! An overpitched ball around off, Hafeez drills his drive straight down the ground for a boundary. The mid off fielder had no chance to cut it off.
32.2: A Phehlukwayo to M Hafeez, FOUR! Deftly done. Hafeez waits for this length ball outside off, opens the face and runs it down across the third man fence for a boundary. Nicely done.
33.4 : 33.4: R Hendricks to Imam, FOUR! Neat stuff from Imam-ul-Haq. Uses his feet to step out of his crease and lofts it over covers for a boundary.
35.4: R Hendricks to M Hafeez, SIX! What a hit. The 200 is up for Pakistan. Spinning into the batsman, some flight on it, Hafeez jumps out and slogs it over mid-wicket for a maximum.
35.5 : 35.5: R Hendricks to M Hafeez, FOUR! Runs coming fast now for the visitors. Hafeez gets low to this floated ball and sweeps it square on the leg side for a boundary.
38.4 : 38.4: K Rabada to M Hafeez, FOUR! Brings up his fifty in style, the 36th in ODI cricket for Mohammad Hafeez. He works this fine down the leg side and sends it across the boundary line.
38.5 : 38.5: K Rabada to M Hafeez, OUT! What a catch, Andile Phehlukwayo... take a bow, my man! A wicket was needed for South Africa, desperately, and Phehlukwayo pulls an absolute rabbit out of the hat to get the job done. Rabada bowls it full again, on the stumps, Hafeez smashes this aerially down towards mid on. Andile there, moves to his left and dives full stretch, Superman-like, and just plucks it out of the air. Could see this on loop all day. Superb stuff! Partnership of 84 is broken.
41.4 : 41.4: A Phehlukwayo to S Malik, FOUR! Serves one on the pads, Malik picks it up and deflects it neatly to fine leg for a boundary.
42.1 : 42.1: T Shamsi to Imam, FOUR! Good start to the over! Shamsi drops it short and on off, Imam turns and pulls it with full power to deep mid-wicket for a boundary.
42.6 : 42.6: T Shamsi to Imam, OUT! Century and gone! Got distracted, was busy gesturing to his critics and that put his concentration off. Anyway, a fine knock by him and he walks back to a good ovation from the crowd. Loopy full ball around off, turning away, Imam walks forward to loft it over covers but mistimes his shot in the air off the bottom half of his blade. It flies to sweeper cover where van der Dussen takes a good sliding catch. The 30-run stand comes to a close and it's Imad Wasim's job n
44.3 : 44.3: T Shamsi to I Wasim, EDGY FOUR! Tossed up ball on off, Imam clears his front leg for a heave across the line but it takes the outside edge and speeds wide of short third man for a boundary. Doesn't matter how they come as long as they come.
45.1 : 45.1: A Phehlukwayo to I Wasim, FOUR! Bang! Short and wide outside off, Imad absolutely loves that, he attacks it with all his power and bludgeons it to the cover fence. No chance for the deep fielder.
45.5 : 45.5: A Phehlukwayo to I Wasim, FOUR! Perfectly placed! Fuller and on middle, Wasim picks the line and length early, makes space for the swing of his arms and dismisses it over the bowler's head for a boundary.
45.6 : 45.6: A Phehlukwayo to I Wasim, DROPPED AND FOUR! A chance has gone down for the umpteenth time in this innings. Have really lost the count now. Very substandard from the Saffas. A length ball around off, Imad speeds down the track and hammers it down towards wide long off. Reeza Hendricks tries to catch it but it bursts through his hands and goes on to meet the fence. 14 from the over!
46.1 : 46.1: D Steyn to S Malik, FOUR! Malik plays a beautiful lofted shot. He knows that mid off is up and soon as Steyn pitches it full on off, Shoaib goes the aerial route over the ring fielder.
46.5 : 46.5: D Steyn to I Wasim, FOUR! Cracking shot! A full toss on off and Wasim packs a punch and slaps it past his partner to long off for a boundary.
46.6 : 46.6: D Steyn to I Wasim, FOUR! Wasim is playing a handy cameo here. This time he has ramped a short ball down to third man and beats the fielder to his right. 15 from the over, 29 in last two.
47.1 : 47.1: K Rabada to S Malik, FOUR! Hat-trick of boundaries for Pakistan! Short ball on middle, angling in, Malik stays back and muscles it behind square leg for a boundary. 50-run stand comes up in a quick time. 300 comes up as well.
47.6 : 47.6: K Rabada to S Malik, OUT! Finds the fielder at mid-wicket! Rabada follows the batsman down the leg side with a short ball and Malik tries to pull across the line. Fails to get enough elevation to go over the infield and Beuran Hendricks accepts an easy catch. Good contribution from Shoaib. Important in the context of the game.
48.6: D Steyn to H Ali, OUT! Miller takes a ripper! He dropped one earlier in the match, a similar one, but this time he makes no mistake. Steyn delivers it short and outside off, Hasan makes space and swings his bat across the line. It catches the top edge and flies towards long on. Miller rushes forward from the deep, dives and takes a stunner inches above the surface. 10-0-43-2, Steyn leaves his impact in his return game.
49.2 : 49.2: K Rabada to I Wasim, FOUR! Drilled down the ground! Fuller and outside off at 141 kph, Wasim reaches out for it and spanks it down past mid off for a cracking boundary.
49.4 : 49.4: K Rabada to S Ahmed, FOUR! Poor bowling. Bowls short and wide outside off with third man inside the ring. Sarfraz stays back and calmly lofts it over the fielder inside the ring.
3.1 : 3.1: B Hendricks to F Zaman, OUT! High in the air and Zaman is gone! Falls cheaply again. Hendricks gets his maiden ODI scalp. Left-armer gets left-hander. A length ball, around middle, Zaman looks to tuck it to the leg side but only skies it high in the air. Kagiso Rabada gets under it at short mid-wicket and takes it comfortably.

0.5 : 0.5: M Amir to de Kock, FOUR! The chase is underway on the fifth ball. Fractionally short and around off, de Kock stays back and slaps it square of the wicket on the off side for a boundary.
1.6 : 1.6: S Afridi to H Amla, FOUR! Lovely hands of Hashim on display! Reaches out for a full delivery outside off and nails his square drive right through the gap at point. Delightful.
2.1 : 2.1: M Amir to de Kock, FOUR! Poor delivery and duly punished. A leg stump half-volley, de Kock picks it off his pads and whips it in front of square leg for a boundary.
5.4 : 5.4: S Afridi to H Amla, FOUR! Glorious! Full and outside off, Amla leans forward and creams his drive through covers for a boundary. The replays show us that the fielder inside the ring was sloppy there, didn't get down in time and it went right through him.
7.5 : 7.5: S Afridi to de Kock, FOUR! Short and in Quinton's half. He rocks back and pulls it over mid-wicket for a boundary. Looking in good form. Fresh from a break and no rustiness shown.
9.1 : 9.1: H Ali to H Amla, FOUR! Welcomes the pacer with a boundary. Full and outside off, Amla crashes this through the covers and finds the fence with ease. The 50 comes up for South Africa.
9.2 : 9.2: H Ali to H Amla, OUT! GONE! That's a soft dismissal! Hasan Ali gets his revenge. He strikes almost immediately. That's what happens when catches are stuck, eh? Bowls it full and angles it in on middle and off, there's a hint of extra bounce and Hashim Amla is probably done in by that. He checks his shot a bit too as his drive finds Babar Azam at short mid-wicket. He takes a simple catch.
9.6 : 9.6: H Ali to de Kock, FOUR! Shot. Pure class from Quinton de Kock. It's full and wide outside off, the opener drives it hard and drives it well square through the off side for a boundary.
13.3 : 13.3: S Khan to R Hendricks, FOUR! Beats the valiant diving effort in the deep. Short and outside off, Hendricks whacks it through extra cover for a boundary.
14.3: I Wasim to R Hendricks, OUT! Big blow to South Africa! Tossed up ball around off, Hendricks taps it down on the off side and his partner looks for a run. Reeza stutters after taking the first step while de Kock has come quite some way down the track. Shadab attacks the ball from point and scores a direct hit at the non-striker's end as Quinton dives in. They appeal and the umpire refers it upstairs. The SA keeper isn't looking too sure as his partner asks him and the replays show us why...
16.1 : 16.1: I Wasim to R Hendricks, FOUR! Streaky runs but it's all the same. Short and flat outside off, Hendricks goes back and plays at it, only to get a thick edge. It runs down to third man for a boundary.
17.6 : 17.6: S Khan to R Hendricks, FOUR! Shot. Brings those strong wrists of his into play and puts it away. Too full on the stumps, Hendricks leans into the shot as he whips it powerfully through mid-wicket for a boundary.
18.2 : 18.2: I Wasim to R Hendricks, FOUR! That's good timing from Reeza Hendricks. Touch short outside off, some width on offer and Reeza pounces on it with a fierce cut. Places it through point and beats the man in the deep.
19.3 : 19.3: S Khan to R Hendricks, SIX! BANG! Hendricks looks in good touch! Sees the ball landing short, so he doesn't waste time in rocking back. Muscles the heave over mid-wicket and clears the fence.
21.5 : 21.5: I Wasim to R Hendricks, FOUR! Shot. Finds the gap well. Short and wide outside off, Hendricks camps on the back foot and crunches it through cover-point to find the fence.
22.3 : 22.3: H Ali to R Hendricks, FOUR! 2nd ODI fifty for Reeza Hendricks, gets to the milestone quickly and in style too. Full and angling in on middle, he leans ahead and flicks it neatly over mid-wicket, beating Afridi positioned in the deep.
22.5 : 22.5: H Ali to R Hendricks, FOUR! Hendricks on the charge here. Looking so fluid. Touch shorter in length, on middle and off, Reeza hangs back and muscles the pull along the turf through mid-wicket. Beats the diving fielder and finds the fence.
23.3 : 23.3: S Khan to R Hendricks, SIX! Nothing but a gift from the leggie. Duly accepted by Reeza as well. A half-tracker on middle, Hendricks rocks back and deposits over deep mid-wicket for a maximum. Looks like the spinners are having a tough time gripping the wet ball.
25.1 : 25.1: S Khan to du Plessis, SIX! Right out of the screws! Massive hit from Faf du Plessis. Tossed up on middle stump, the Protea captain gets low and unfurls the slog sweep over mid-wicket. Sends it deep into the stands.
26.4 : 26.4: S Afridi to du Plessis, FOUR! Poor from Hafeez in the deep. Maybe the wet ball making that happen? Still, should be stopping that one. Du Plessis cracks it through the covers, Hafeez moves to his left, slides but the ball goes off his palms and touches the rope.
27.3 : 27.3: M Amir to du Plessis, FOUR! Amazing. What a shot. Full and wide outside off, too much room to work with and du Plessis puts this away. Reaches out to it and smashes it through the covers for a boundary.
27.4 : 27.4: M Amir to du Plessis, FOUR! Two in two! Getting a move on. Faf du Plessis looking so confident, as always. Extremely full and outside off, Faf clear his front leg and bangs his past mid off to send it across the boundary line.
29.2 : 29.2: M Amir to R Hendricks, FOUR! Fuller and too far outside off, Reeza picks it spot early and gets his shot away with perfect execution. Cuts it behind point and finds the fence.
