Rabada to Kohli, 1 run, OUT, full-toss on middle and off, worked away towards deep midwicket, and he's run out first ball!
He walks off cursing himself (or maybe Rohit - not sure who called for the second run).
Throw came in nice and flat and AB had the bails off in a flash, with Kohli a good foot out. Yup. It was Rohit who called.
Kohli didn't run the first run all that quick. Morris was the fielder. He had to run a fair distance towards his left.

Morkel to RG Sharma, OUT, back of a length outside off, lets it come on and pushes it to the right of point. Takes off for a single,
takes on David Miller's arm, and he's a goner - the direct hit at the bowler's end finds him a foot short.
Brilliant fielding, capitalising on the fact that Rohit was starting from deep in the crease, having played that ball off the back foot

Great bowling by South Africa and I hope they make the runs in less than 10 overs to further humiliate India in t20 cricket. ;D

Ashwin to Amla, got him! Fired that at the pads and Amla went for the flick. Didn't middle it, and it popped up in the direction of
leg slip, where Rohit grabbed it after a juggle

Wait. What? The players are going off the field. The umpires are in conversation at the edge of the boundary.
The bottle-throwing seems to have resumed.
Chris Broad, the match referee, is out on the ground too.
As is Faf du Plessis.

South Africa proving that they are a far better team than their current ranking. Disappointing to read about the bottle-throwing. The ICC needs to come down hard on India for this. That is unacceptable behaviour. Were the fans throwing the bottles at the players or fighting among themselves?

I saw bala with a whole heap ::LOL::
Upbeat Bollywood music fills the air in Cuttack. It's utterly out of place, after what happened there only a little while ago.
South Africa have won this match handsomely, and sealed an emphatic series win,
but it's the crowd that will make the headlines, after scenes of bottle-throwing reminiscent of the 90s.
In two installments, they held up play by a total of 51 minute
