  1. SA 137-3

    Need 22 from 14 balls

    Oh, hello.

    Nadine de Klerk skips down the pitch and drives Sree Charani for four. That is a stunner.

  2. SA 133-3

    India think they have Nadine de Klerk stumped, but she reacts quickly and gets her foot down in time.

    And breathe. What a finish this is set up to be.

    South Africa are still favourites...

    I am a professional and I am very calm right now.

    Entertainment wise 10/10, heart-rate wise 0/10.

    I can't believe what we've seen.

  6. dropped catch

    Kapp dropped on 65

    SA 130-3

    It's all happening!

    Radha Yadav, the sub fielder who is usually exceptional, has put down Marizanne Kapp again.

    Kapp chips the ball straight to long-on and it's a howler, straight in and straight out. Shafali Verma is raging.

  7. 6 runs

    SA 129-3

    But Marizanne Kapp is not done yet! What a shot!

    It's fuller and flatter from Shafali Verma, and Kapp strikes it as straight as an arrow down the ground.

  8. SA 123-3

    Still, that does bring Nadine de Klerk to the middle.

    The all-rounder has a habit of finishing spectacular chases.

  9. Henry Moeran
    Commentator on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra

    Shafali Verma, with a half-tracker, can barely look at her fielders as they come running in to celebrate.

    The pendulum swings once again.

    WICKET

    Brits c Sree Charani b Shafali 40 (SA 122-3)

    Shafali Verma's golden arm strikes again!

    It's a honking delivery, a proper drag down, but Tazmin Brits has pulled it straight to deep square.

    She goes for 40 from 36 balls, so she caught up pretty well after a slow start but it could still prove to be costly.

  11. SA 122-2

    Target 159

    Four more!

    Deepti Sharma offers up a filthy full toss and Marizanne Kapp is not missing that, whether she's on nought or 55.

    37 from 24 balls, let's go.

  12. SA 115-2

    Jemimah Rodrigues in the field is a cheat code.

    Tazmin Brits whacks one down the ground which looks destined to go for four but Rodrigues appears from nowhere, sliding across the turf and hauling it in for two.

  13. WinViz has it 61-39 in South Africa's favour against IndiaBBC Sport/CricViz

    South Africa are favourites again...

  14. SA 112-2

    India turn to Deepti Sharma, who has such a knack of taking crucial wickets.

  15. Phoebe Graham
    Former Lancashire & Manchester Originals bowler on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra

    Marizanne Kapp really took that over down. She's played so well square of the wicket and ramping the ball.

    India haven't reacted quickly enough to the way she's played the seamers today.

  16. 50 runs

    50 for Kapp

    SA 111-2

    Marizanne Kapp ramps for fourGetty Images

    My word, Marizanne Kapp is playing well here.

    Her innovation to score behind square has been amazing, as she hits Arundhati Reddy for back-to-back fours.

    She shuffles across her stumps to ramp one over short fine leg before flicking another to bring up a 34-ball fifty.

    South Africa need her to keep this going. She has that classic Kapp look of steely determination on her face, barely a smile to celebrate the milestone.

  17. SA 100-2

    Lovely start after the drinks' break for South Africa.

    Tazmin Brits thumps the second ball of the over down the ground for four.

  18. Phoebe Graham
    Former Lancashire & Manchester Originals bowler on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra

    A wicket for India here would put them in a great position.

  19. SA 95-2

    Shafali Verma is turning into a very handy bowling option for India.

    Just five singles from it, which drags back a bit of control. South Africa need 64 from the last six overs. It's going to be tough.

  20. SA 90-2

    Target 159

    Here we go. Big over.

    Tazmin Brits survives a close run out call which keeps Kapp on strike, and she scoops over her shoulder for four more!

    South Africa are catching up. 13 off the over.
