India vs South Africa, 2nd T20I - Live Cricket Score, Commentary

Sipamla to Shivam Dube, 1 run, very full outside off, Shivam Dube drills it down to long-off

Sipamla to Jitesh Sharma, out Caught by Ottneil Baartman!! Whatever Markram told his bowler, it has worked! Full and straight on middle-leg, Jitesh Sharma looked to whip it away off his pads, was there to be hit to be honest but he closed the face of the bat a touch too early. It took the leading edge and shot straight up in the air. Two men were getting under it at backward point, eventually Linde bailed and Baartman held on. The communication happened in time and it was taken safely. South Africa strike another decisive blow. Jitesh Sharma c Ottneil Baartman b Sipamla 27(17) [4s-2 6s-2]

Sipamla to Hardik Pandya, out Caught by Brevis!! Nevermind that, he's gone next ball! Not to be for Pandya today. Full and straight on middle, Hardik Pandya cleared his front-leg to play his signature whip over deep mid-wicket, didn't quite get the connection and holed out to Brevis down on the ropes. He makes no mistake and South Africa break another important partnership. Hardik Pandya c Brevis b Sipamla 20(23) [6s-1]
