IND vs SA, 3rd T20I Highlights: Rossouw 100 helps Proteas win by 49 runs

India vs South Africa Highlights: South Africa saved themselves from getting whitewashed as Rilee Rossouw's maiden T20I hundred took them 227 and the bowlers did well to defend it and win by 49 runs

9:55 PM

Ind vs SA, 3rd T20I, Live Score: 100 up for India

 

India have reached 100 in the 11th over and are on course with the required run rate, but the problem is with the wickets as they have very few wickets left to attack from the word go. No doubt that Deepak Chahar and Ravi Ashwin can bat and Siraj and Umesh could smoke them on lengths too, but these are too many runs to make for the lower middle order and tail-enders 

 

9:49 PM

Ind vs SA, 3rd T20I, Live Score: Yes it is

9:42 PM

Ind vs SA, 3rd T20I, Live Score: Surya departs too, India in a spot of bother

 

Dwaine Pretorius has struck with the first over as he bowls one outside off and slow throw the air and Suryakumar Yadav went for the extended drive, couldn’t get enough on the ball, but just enough to get it to the sweeper cover where Tristan Stubbs took a great catch. India are now in a spot of bother with no recognised batter left and Axar Patel and Harshal Patel in the middle. They are five down and haven’t even touched the 100-run mark.

9:34 PM

Ind vs SA, 3rd T20I, Live Score: Karthik on a roll

 

The Indian team have presented a great challenge to the Proteas so far thanks to a rightly anchored onslaught in the last two overs by Rishabh Pant and Dinesh Karthik. Karthik has continued to keep up with the onslaught even after the powerplay as he has marched to 46 off just 20 balls and has hit Keshav Maharaj for back-to-back sixes 

 

9:30 PM

Ind vs SA, 3rd T20I, Live Score: Now, Karthik goes bang-bang

9:25 PM

Ind vs SA, 3rd T20I, Live Score: And Pant departs

 

After hitting Kagiso Rabada for 6,4,6 in three deliveries, Rishabh Pant lobbed one straight to Aiden Markram at cover-point and would have to go back in the hut for a 14-ball 27 as India are now three down for 45 in the first five overs

9:19 PM

Ind vs SA, 3rd T20I, Live Score: That’s where the game stands

 

South Africa are playing to avoid a whitewash while India are up and about to claim a 3-0 win. Batting first, the Proteas reached 227-3 in 20 overs thanks to a scintillating Rilee Rossouw century which he hit in 48 balls only. India, while chasing have lost two quick wickets and are 25-2 in 04 overs with Dinesh Karthik and Rishabh Pant in the middle 

 

8:50 PM

Ind vs SA, 3rd T20I, Live Score: India would need 228 to win the match

8:46 PM

Ind vs SA, 3rd T20I, Live Score: Raining sixes end the inning

 

After hitting the ball out of the ground, Miller has now hit two back-to-back sixes even as the last ball remains. The last ball was bowled well and it ended only in a single hence the South African inning ends at 227/3 and India would need 228 to win 

 

8:44 PM

Ind vs SA, 3rd T20I, Live Score: Killer Miller hits it out of the ground

 

Six!! This is one of the biggest sixes that people would have seen being hit in recent history as David Miller has hit the waist-high full-toss out of the ground literally over the roof of the stadium. 

 

8:43 PM

Ind vs SA, 3rd T20I, Live Score: Stubbs' miserable stay comes to an end

 

Tristan Stubbs, who was sent up the order ahead of David Miller in the batting order has departed off just 23 for which he took 18 balls, which is almost crimninal. 

 

So far it has been great over by Deepak Chahar who is bowling the 20h of the inning. He has only conceded 5 of the first three balls
