India have the unassailable 3-0 lead now
Live Cricket Score of South Africa vs India, 3rd ODI
Kohli won't mind sharing the limelight with his two favourite teammates - the wristspinners. Chahal and Kuldeep ended at par with four wickets apiece. Kuldeep sends out the googly and Ngidi had no clue about it, missed the line and was trapped plumb in front. South Africa fall short and how, bowled out for 179 and with 10 overs to go.
WICKET - Nine down!
Tahir had just hit a four down the ground but that was all part of the trap. Another carrot in the form of a juicy floater and Tahir fell for it again. Miscued slog went high up and Kohli had another simple catch for the taking.
WICKET - Eight down!
Gently tossed up outside off as Phehlukwayo tries to go for the big heave across the line - rather hopelessly, top edge sails up and Kohli takes a simple running catch at cover. Formalities remain...
WICKET - Seven down!
South Africa are quickly hurtling towards another defeat! Chris Morris was trapped leg before by a Kuldeep Yadav ball that kept a tad low, while Khaya Zondo went for the jugular against Chahal and skied one to substitute fielder Manish Pandey. SA 150 for 7 in 36.1 overs
WICKET - Game Over for SA?
That's certainly what India would believe. David Miller - the last possible batsman who could've led a late dramatic surge to an improbable victory - has perished. Miller advanced down the track as the mid off and mid off were inside the 30-yard-circle, but Bumrah's angle from around the stumps cramped the left-hander for room. The result was an under-edge that went to Dhoni behind the stumps. South Africa 129 for 5 in 32.3 overs
South Africa - 122/4 in 30 overs
The chase is going nowhere presently. David Miller is into the 20s but Khaya Zondo has been slow to provide any sort of impetus. They now need 182 off the last 120 balls!
WICKET - SA 95/4
JP Duminy is gone! He was quick to go onto the back foot to a Chahal ball that wasn't short enough. It pitched outside off and turned in sharply, beating Duminy's attempt to glance it away on the leg side. The ball hit the front pad and the big appeal was met with a raised finger. Duminy wasn't convinced but reviewed, and was still sent on his way back.
FIFTY for Duminy
JP Duminy takes SA's fight forward. He's got his 25th half-century but his job is not even half done. SA will need him to negate the relentless pressure put on the hosts by the two tweakers.
WICKET - Chahal strikes
Not a very happy debut for Heinrich Klaasen. He played inside the line of a Chahal delivery that pitched on leg stump and turned sharply to beat the bat and hit the back leg in line. JP Duminy adviced him against a review and out went Klaasen. SA 88 for 3 in 19.3 overs
WICKET - Aiden Markram is stumped!
MS Dhoni is quick as lightening, as always! SA skipper is beaten by the flight and turn and is way down the track when the ball is collected by the Indian stumper. Markram was looking good but the run rate wasn't moving as quickly as SA would've liked. And the fact that SA have been giving away wickets to spinners in the series, there was a tendency to try and attack one. Markram took one for the team, but failed to see them through it. He goes for 32 off 42. South Africa 79 for 2 in 16.2 overs.
