63.1: Keshav Maharaj to Ravindra Jadeja, OUT! STUMPED! Keshav Maharaj joins the party finally. He tosses it up, full and around off, turns in sharply.

He gets beaten on the flight and misses as it goes behind, where Kyle Verreynne collects it and breaks the stumps. The third umpire is called in and the replay shows that Jadeja is well short of his crease. He departs for a gritty 54 off 87, and India are nine down now.

61.4: Keshav Maharaj to Ravindra Jadeja, Prodigious turn and bounce! The ball jagged in viciously from outside off. Jadeja rocked back, decided against the shot, and let it pass, but not cleanly. It grazed his ribs on its way through to the keeper, but flying past his right, down leg. The batters crossed twice and it is called byes, but that clearly deflected off the batter. Surely the umpire didn't spot that one.
- 0
61.3: Keshav Maharaj to Ravindra Jadeja, Ouch! That must have stung him! Spins sharply into the batter from a length, Ravindra Jadeja is sucked into the shot and pushes at it off the front foot.

Right into the slot from Maharaj, on the stumps, spinning in. Ravindra Jadeja shimmies down the track and lofts it cleanly over deep mid-wicket for a six. He has been such an asset as an all-rounder for this Indian team.
- 0

77.5: Nitish Kumar Reddy to Tristan Stubbs, 'Catch it is the call, Siraj puts it down'. Shorter and angling on middle, Tristan Stubbs pulls but gets a top edge behind square on the leg side. Mohammed Siraj runs in from the ropes, and puts in a dive forward and yorks his fingers while trying to attempt for a catch. Probably didn't judge the trajectory of the ball well enough, did Siraj. Will go down as a chance.

81.5: Marco Jansen to Kuldeep Yadav, OUT! EDGED AND GONE! 5-fer for Marco Jansen and how good Aiden Markram has been in that slip cordon? Fifth catch for him in this innings. Marco slams the deck hard, and keeps the line of attack just outside off. It leaves the batter with extra bounce. Kuldeep gets on the back foot to work it away, but plays away from his body and the ball shoots flat and low to second slip. Aiden Markram like a magnet, attracts the ball towards him once again. Kuldeep Yadav's resistance comes to an end after 134 balls. He departs on 19 runs. India are 194/9.

Googly from Kuldeep, short and turning away from the batter. Marco hangs back and steers it behind square on the off side with an angled bat. Gets an inside edge that crashes back into the stumps. End of a marathon batting effort from South Africa as they finish with 489.

63.5: Keshav Maharaj to Mohammed Siraj, OUT! TAKEN! My word, that is an unbelievable catch from Marco Jansen, and if that does not sum up this series for South Africa, then nothing else can. Keshav Maharaj loops it up, full and on middle, Mohammed Siraj gets his front leg out of the way, and lofts it nicely over the bowler's head. It goes miles in the air, but Jansen from mid on runs backwards and keeps his eyes on the ball. He stretches out his left hand and grabs a stunner tumbling onto the ground. Siraj cannot believe it, nor can Temba Bavuma. All the Proteas players run towards Jansen, and the celebration begins for them. SOUTH AFRICA WIN BY 408 RUNS AND TAKE THE SERIES 2-0.
