Ottneil Baartman to Shai Hope, SIX! Gloriously struck! Ottneil Baartman starts off by delivering on a fractionally good length, around off, it skids rapidly off the deck.

Aiden Markram to Shai Hope, SIX! Easy as you like! Markram floats it up from over the wicket, full and on off, Shai Hope gets his weight on the front foot and holds his shape. Does not try to overhit it and just lofts it over mid off for a six.

Aiden Markram to Shai Hope, FOUR! Sloppy from Donovan Ferreira in the deep!

Ottneil Baartman to Alick Athanaze, OUT! TAKEN! Ottneil Baartman breaks through for South Africa! The bowling change has done the trick for them. Baartman hurls it full in length with an upright seam, just outside off. Alick Athanaze stays rooted in the crease and is unable to transfer his weight on the front foot as he looks to loft it over mid off. The bat turns in his hand at the point of contact and Athanaze spoons the simplest of catches to Aiden Markram at mid off. Athanaze has done his job though.

Nandre Burger to Nicholas Pooran, SIX! These are easy pickings for Nicky P! Slower one, outside off and right in the zone, Nicholas Pooran detects the pace off and waits for it to come at him before lofting it over the bowler's head for a huge six.

Nandre Burger to Nicholas Pooran, SIX! Absolutely merciless! Burger offers a friendly full toss on leg, Nicholas Pooran creates a strong base for himself, weighing on the back foot and gets his bat underneath it properly. Pulls it well and behind deep mid-wicket for another six. Burger is under the pump here.

11.5
Nandre Burger to Nicholas Pooran, SIX! The quicker you come, the quicker you go, says Nicky P! This is majestic T20 batting from the southpaw. Right into the slot on off, Nicholas Pooran clears his front leg and spanks it down the ground for the third six in a row. The dewy conditions are making it really difficult for the bowlers to find their right lengths.

11.6
Nandre Burger to Nicholas Pooran, SIX! MAKE THAT FOUR IN A ROW! Nandre Burger stays over the stumps and sustains to bowl full and outside off, Nicholas Pooran predicts the length early and clears his front foot before lofting it over the cow corner fence for a biggie. West Indies just need 45 from 48 balls now.

13.3
Ottneil Baartman to Shai Hope, OUT! LBW! An appeal for LBW and the umpire raises his finger! Shai Hope though goes upstairs and challenges the on-field decision. Ottneil Baartman nails it on a fuller length and attacks the sticks as the ball skids quickly off the surface and nips back in a fraction. Shai Hope is cramped up for room and hurries into his shot looking to flick it away but loses his shape and gets rapped on the front pad. There's nothing on the UltraEdge and the Ball Tracking shows that the ball is clipping the leg stump on the umpire's call. West Indies won't lose a review but they have lost Shai Hope who just registered his fifty.

Kwena Maphaka to Nicholas Pooran, FOUR! Surprisingly, this is the first four for Nicky P! Short in length, and pitching back into the batter from off, Nicholas Pooran swings across the line of the ball and helps it away down to deep fine for a boundary.

15.3
Patrick Kruger to Nicholas Pooran, SIX! BANG! That has gone many a mile! Nicholas Pooran brings up his FIFTY! Kruger digs it in short but this is not short enough to trouble the batter and there is no pace on it. Nicholas Pooran picks up the length early and deposits the pull way over deep square leg for a biggie.

Kwena Maphaka to Rovman Powell, OUT! TAKEN! Kwena Maphaka roars in delight as he gets his maiden international wicket! Took a bit of tapping in the first over but has since fought back well. Maphaka delivers a full delivery with an upright seam, on off. Rovman Powell tries to force this one through the off side. Fails to get the elevation to clear the man there and hits it straight into the hands of Patrick Kruger at cover who takes a sharp catch.

Kwena Maphaka to Roston Chase, FOUR! THAT'S IT! Roston Chase with the winning runs! Kwena Maphaka errs in line as this is too straight, on a back of a length, at the hips, Roston Chase gets inside the line and just tickles it fine. The ball beats the diving keeper, Ryan Rickelton to his left and it races away to the fence. West Indies win by 7 wickets and go 1-0 up in the series!
