DROPPED! Ravi Bishnoi spills an easy chance and Ramandeep Singh has to wait for his maiden international wicket. Hard length around off, Keshav Maharaj stands tall and swings across the line but gets a top edge down to fine leg. Bishnoi there never settles under it and the ball ends up going through the hands and gets hit on the neck but thankfully, he is fine. Two taken! The physio has come out to have a look and it seems like Bishnoi's right ear is in pain but he is good to go.

In the air but in the gap as well! Flighted ball, full and outside off, Keshav Maharaj lofts it over the vacant cover region and picks up a single.

Tossed up around off, driven away straight to covers.

Appeal for stumping and it is sent upstairs! Nicely flighted, a bit full and around off, Keshav Maharaj leans forward to drive but is beaten and Sanju Samson dislodges the bails. The third umpire checks the replays and sees that Maharaj's back leg never left the crease. NOT OUT!
Strategic break! Well then, just a couple of wickets left for South Africa and they still need more than half the runs with 27 legal deliveries to play with. India have sealed the series win and it is just about how many more runs can the hosts can get from here to curtail the damage. Also, Keshav Maharaj is in next.
OUT! CAUGHT! Axar Patel gets into the wickets column on his third delivery and Gerald Coetzee has to depart here. Axar Patel bowls this one into the pitch and keeps it around off, Coetzee makes room to go big but ends up miscuing it right up and just behind the stumps. The keeper, Sanju Samson takes a simple catch and South Africa are now 8 down.
