Hardik Pandya to Linde, SIX, mind you, Linde can bat. He's just released some pressure. Slower short of length delivery, Linde takes it on and nails the pull in front of square - right between deep square leg and deep mid-wicket

Hardik Pandya to Miller, FOUR, shot! Once again slow and bowled into the wicket, Miller drags the pull intentionally and places it in front of square. If he had not dragged it then Miller would have picked out deep mid-wicket

Hardik Pandya to Brevis, out Caught by Washington Sundar!! Wickets in successive overs. Both set batters gone. This was a slower short of length delivery, Brevis fetches the pull from outside off and gets it high on the bat, the ball skies towards deep mid-wicket. Washi runs to his right and hangs on to a good catch. Hardik attempted these sort of deliveries in his first over but could not execute them perfectly. This was perfect - the height on the short of length delivery and no pace to work with. Brevis c Washington Sundar b Hardik Pandya 31(17) [4s-3 6s-2]

Hardik Pandya to de Kock, FOUR, uppish and safe again! Hardik jumps in agony. Seems like Abhishek didn't pick that early, which forced that reaction from Hardik. Short of a length delivery on the stumps, de Kock pulls flat. Was at a catchable height and if it was true from the fielder reacted late to the left, India would rue it. Came low and teased the diving fielder to the left before escaping for four
9.5
Hardik Pandya to Brevis, 1 run, in the airrr, but doesn't carry. Finally Hardik bowls into the wicket at normal pace - something that has got him success earlier here. Brevis was late on the shot as he was surprised by the length and bounce, ball drops short of long-on
9.4
Hardik Pandya to Brevis, no run, excellent short slower delivery that Brevis didn't read. Had to delay the upper cut but missed
9.3

Hardik Pandya to Brevis, FOUR, muscular cut shot. That ball literally rocketed to the fence. Width on this slower short of length delivery outside off stump, Brevis gave it a full go and sweeper was a mere spectator to the left
9.2
6
Hardik Pandya to Brevis, SIX, the powerrrrr! Giving Hardik a taste of his own medicine it seems. Hardik Pandya went for the full ball outside off stump and offered a gift of a slot ball. Brevis needs no second invitation and deposits this over long-off
9.1

Hardik Pandya to Brevis, FOUR, oh inside edge past the stumps and Sanju fails to stop it with the dive to the left. 100 up for the Proteas. Slower full delivery, Brevis tried to slog from way outside off stump and escaped with the under edge
