00:00Remember Bavuma against Barbarazam, two hugely talented sides, probably two of the best bowling attacks in the tournament.
00:11Both skippers need some runs, they have been short of runs.
00:16Barbarazam won the toss and said we will have a bat on a used pitch, which is a little bit dry.
00:22But this venue in an evening game, it is very difficult to beat the Sydney cricket ground.
00:28Remember that Pakistan won the toss and decided to bat first.
00:34That is their line-up to make one forced change.
00:39Fakaz Amman out with that serious knee injury, he's out of the tournament when Mohammed Harris comes in.
00:45So the one change for them lies on their opening combination.
00:49Barbarazam and Rizwan have been short of runs, Barbarazam in particular.
00:52There is the South African team.
00:58Sean Pollock, what do you make of that team?
00:59Yeah, just the one change, Klaassen comes in place of David Miller in the batting department.
01:06And then Shamsi is in place of Maharaj as well.
01:09Klaassen, Miller is at a cautionary back injury with regards to just resting him.
01:15They feel that they're in a stage of the tournament where they need to give it an opportunity to heal itself and mend.
01:20Rizwan will take strike, he loves that little pull off his hip, doesn't he?
01:26The sweep almost off the seamer towards deep square leg.
01:29That's his area he targets.
01:33It's going to be Wayne Parnell from the Randwick end, ranking of 49 in the ICC rankings.
01:40Age 33, been very consistent.
01:44Time for the action to start.
01:46Will we see any swing from Wayne Parnell?
01:49Well, there to start.
01:54The other South African bowlers are much more hit-the-deck bowlers, the likes of Rabada, Norkia and Gidi.
02:01If anyone will swing it in, it will be Parnell.
02:07Short and through, first boundary, and it's off the bat of Mohamed Rizwan.
02:12That's nicely played.
02:13The offside is reinforced, it's got the extra field, it's just the one slip in place, and it's the shorter boundary.
02:19It's got a little bit of width.
02:25Gone, dragged on.
02:27Brilliant comeback from Parnell, straight into the action.
02:31Boundary and then gets Rizwan.
02:32His strength, as we mentioned earlier, is square of the wicket, and this one just nips back, tucks him up, bottom edge onto the stumps.
02:41And that's a nice comeback from Wayne Parnell.
02:43That will help, that will help, that is for certain, he may not get too many more pitched up after that, because when it's up, it's off.
02:5386 metres, it only needs to carry 60 to go for a maximum that side of the ground.
02:58And that's gone way back, quality strike, and that'll give him a nice boost after being hit on the helmet.
03:03Short, pulled away, and that's another six into the crowd, back-to-back sixes for Harris.
03:12His first four balls in World Cup cricket, he's got 12.
03:15Nailed, nailed between the two that are out, six, six, four.
03:28He goes up and over the offside, a little bit of a faint edge on that.
03:32He wanted to go squarer, but that's four more, he's trying to cash in on this power play.
03:37Scoop, how far will that go, all the way.
03:45He's just scooped Heinrich Norcia for six, he's having some fun.
03:48Smile on his face.
03:55That's close, very close, full straight, he was going a long way across.
04:03Going out Chris, pitching us off, impact in line.
04:07Ligas is hitting, so you can stay with your original decision and outs.
04:10We'll let you know when you're on screen.
04:12Signal now.
04:21That's gone a long way up.
04:23Rabada, Rabada takes the catch.
04:26Oh, he's been in some catching form this tournament.
04:31Another one for South Africa.
04:33Superb from Rabada, just running back and making sure he got there and then calmly pouching it.
04:43It's that slow one again.
04:50Oh, in the air and gone, there's another one.
04:54Simple as you like.
04:56Gone straight to the captain and South Africa have another one.
05:00Capacity, hello, look out.
05:05Oh, Q2K gets airborne but can't hang on and he may have done himself a mischief here.
05:13Oh, this is all right too.
05:19Well, probably when you mention Rabada getting popped around the track.
05:27Up and over again, this one is hit well.
05:29Will it carry the whole distance?
05:30No.
05:31One bounce into the boundary.
05:3311 from the 12th over.
05:3482 for 4th.
05:36Oh, he's misjudged that badly.
05:50This one's going to carry even further.
05:53This one's going 10 rows back.
05:55That's beautifully played.
05:56Brings up the 50 partnership between these two of 40 deliveries.
06:08And he's given big appeal.
06:10Would have been run out as well.
06:11Lung Yengiri hits the direct hit.
06:13But it doesn't matter.
06:14The finger has gone up.
06:16Shamsi going a little bit fuller in this case.
06:19He was going across his stumps.
06:20It looked like he may have got some bat onto that.
06:22That's scary.
06:23He definitely hit that.
06:24He's definitely got a bottom edge on that.
06:26Which is a massive surprise.
06:28Because normally is a batter you'd expect him to know.
06:30Absolutely.
06:31He would know himself.
06:35Wow.
06:36If the curve has answered the frustration of losing the wicket
06:40with a massive six straight down the ground.
06:45100 up for Pakistan with that shot.
06:48And if there was some confusion in the last ball,
06:50there was definitely no confusion in this shot.
06:52Hits it beautifully.
06:56It's going to land safely.
06:57It should be one bounce and into the boundary rope.
06:59It was perfect placement.
07:00It's a big ground.
07:02A big area that it was taken on.
07:06Up over extra cover.
07:07That's the shorter boundary.
07:09It doesn't matter.
07:09Even if it was the longer one.
07:11That is a brilliant strike from Shadab.
07:13He's pulled that virtually out of the ground.
07:24Top tier.
07:26Top tier.
07:27Top shot.
07:28If they can't.
07:29Dahl up the cabin crew for this one.
07:34goes across.
07:40Shovels it leg side.
07:41There's no one there.
07:43Field has gone in front of square.
07:45Much needed momentum for Pakistan.
07:47Down the pitch.
07:50Does he get it over mid-off?
07:51He gets it past mid-off.
07:54I think it was the skipper.
07:55It was diving to his left.
07:57He's in a hurry to get the ball back.
08:01Up and over third.
08:02That will go all the way for six.
08:04Pakistan on the charge.
08:05Classic T20.
08:1350 partnership up with this one.
08:20There's no one back there.
08:22That's edged away for four.
08:23He'll take it.
08:24He won't care one bit.
08:29It does go York and Nokia.
08:30Can he get back for two to go to 50?
08:33He can.
08:34A T20 World Cup half-century for Iftikar.
08:38He's played beautifully.
08:42That's a full toss.
08:45That will go to six.
08:47That probably will be a no ball.
08:49And will have to be bowled again and be a free hit.
08:51It is.
08:52The slippery ball maybe.
08:54With the rain coming down.
08:59And it is a free hit.
09:01And that's been belted leg side.
09:03And that goes for six.
09:0650 for Shadab Khan in just 20 deliveries.
09:15Slow ball.
09:16It's gone a long way up.
09:17Mid-arm should take this.
09:18He's coming in.
09:19Will they catch one in the end?
09:20No.
09:21It's been put down.
09:23Remarkable from South Africa.
09:25Remarkable.
09:26Remarkable.
09:30Leg side.
09:31This should be taken.
09:33And finally it is taken.
09:35Takistana 177 for six.
09:41Mohamed Wazim comes in at number eight.
09:45It goes straight up in the air.
09:46Three of them try and get there.
09:48But Vuma takes the catch.
09:50Two wickets of the last two balls from Nokia.
09:54Fine comeback from him.
09:55And will it be a team hat-trick.
10:07Three and three balls.
10:08Oh brilliant catch.
10:10Brilliant catch.
10:12Riley Rousseau at long on.
10:15Pakistan lose three and three.
10:18And South Africa have found their hands at the end.
10:23Now Riley Rousseau the fullback.
10:27Under the high ball.
10:30That's gone a long way up.
10:32That'll take some catching.
10:33Again two players try and get there.
10:35It's put down.
10:37I think it's Shamsie.
10:39In fact it's not.
10:41I think it was Wayne Parnell.
10:43That was a really hard run.
10:45Last ball of the innings.
10:47That's also gone a long way up.
10:49This has been catching practice.
10:51And it's gone down again.
10:56And they've got to run back for three.
10:58Will he dive in?
11:01It's all happening out there.
11:03It really is.
11:06What a crazy half hour that was.
11:08What fun that was.
11:12Brilliant.
11:13Absolutely marvellous.
11:16From the captain.
11:17Well brilliant last half hour.
11:21Brilliant 20 overs of cricket that.
11:23That was so much fun.
11:26Yeah when you look at this.
11:27Highest total for a team in a T20 World Cup.
11:30Lost their first four wickets for less than 50.
11:33And they still managed to scramble to 185.
11:36They'll take a lot of heart.
11:38Will Pakistan from this?
11:39They will because that's been their nemesis in the last year or so.
11:42It's been that middle order.
11:44They've relied heavily on Rizwan and Barber.
11:46They failed.
11:47But Iftikar 51.
11:49Noa's 28.
11:49And Shadab 52 were quite brilliant.
11:53Wickets shared amongst everyone.
11:54But Nokia again.
11:55Such good form.
11:56The pick of the bowlers.
11:5711 dots in these four overs.
11:59Fourth for 41.
12:01Quite outstanding.
12:02Given it's quite tough.
12:04With the ball getting down.
12:05Target 186 with 120 deliveries.
12:08South Africa will have their work cut out for them.
12:11I think it was good that Pakistan Barrett first and put runs on the board.
12:14That puts them in a much better position now.
12:17Quintin de Kock there will be targeting him.
12:21If they get him early then that really puts Pakistan in the driver's seat.
12:26Well in short, Sean I think he'll be very very happy with getting over 180.
12:32Shadab Freedy will open the bowling for Tuckie Stone.
12:37He's growing in confidence.
12:38Back from his injury.
12:39He's started to get better and better as the tournament's gone on.
12:44That's the field that's set.
12:45Third man.
12:46Square leg back on the boundaries.
12:49One slipped in place.
12:54And Timber Vavum is underway.
13:01And he's got one.
13:02Quintin de Kock has not got the time in.
13:04Try to hoik it over midwicket.
13:06A good catch in the end.
13:08And Pakistan have the breakthrough.
13:12They couldn't have asked for a better start.
13:13Pakistan with the ball.
13:14Shine sharp 3D strikes and is that danger man.
13:19Quintin de Kock.
13:23Flicked away and that's the whole way.
13:25He starts with a six.
13:26That's Raleigh Bissot.
13:27What a shot that is.
13:32That's not really too short.
13:33It's just drifted on to the pads.
13:38To the ground.
13:38And that's brilliant from Timber Vavum.
13:42That's what you want to see from him.
13:45Backing himself.
13:46Picking up the back of the length of delivery.
13:48Helping it on its way.
13:52Top edge.
13:53Carries to third man.
13:55And taken.
13:55Doesn't go the whole way.
13:57I think Raleigh Rousseau was looking to go up and over.
14:00And Shahina Freedy has struck for the second turn.
14:0750th wicket for Shahina Freedy.
14:11In T20 international.
14:12Doesn't come bigger than this.
14:13Riley Rousseau trying to smash this over point.
14:17Top edge.
14:17Carries all the way.
14:21Up and away.
14:22And that's nicely played by Timber Vavum.
14:24Drags short.
14:25This one played a beautiful pull shot in the last over.
14:27That one.
14:28He just helps it on its way.
14:31And that does.
14:32And that's beautifully played.
14:33Timber Vavum is underway.
14:35He's got himself to 18 quickly.
14:40Pulls this away with more confidence and authority.
14:42And they'll be thinking of three.
14:45In fact, it's going to bounce and go away to the advertising cushion.
14:50So, it's back to back down to the end.
14:52The over.
14:52An expensive over for Pakistan.
14:5420 from it.
14:5436 for two.
14:59Time for a little bit of rushing to get carved away almost for six here.
15:03To a wide third man position.
15:05And the skipper's starting to get into a groove.
15:09Yeah, there we go.
15:09That's better from Timber Vavum.
15:12Reigning sixes.
15:16But sure is.
15:18Gone way back.
15:20This.
15:2250 up for the team scorer of the South Africans here.
15:25Just outside of the power play.
15:27This is a shot that Timber's been looking for for the last few games, actually.
15:32Gotten out once or twice.
15:34To India the other day.
15:35Trying to play it.
15:36A little glove down to the keeper.
15:37But this time, he's got all of that.
15:40Yeah, spot on, Nass.
15:46That'll be the challenge for the bowlers holding on to the ball as this one gets through extra cover for four more.
15:53The ball becomes a little bit of a greasy soap in your hand.
16:00Oh, on the up.
16:05Mark, clean as you like, 17 off the seven.
16:14Oh, yes, is it?
16:17Fastball into the action.
16:19Shadid Khan.
16:22Got a key wicket now.
16:24The skipper has to go here.
16:33Oh, straight through.
16:36Take the salute from the crowd that is erupting here in the SCG.
16:41Aidan Markham going on to the back foot.
16:43And that's just slid straight through onto the stumps.
16:49That's the end of Aidan Markham.
16:50He's gone for 20.
16:52South Africa now 66 for four.
16:58The drizzle right now.
16:59It's coming down slightly harder.
17:01Although it's been like this throughout the game.
17:04Just reminds me of that 92 World Cup.
17:07Sorry, South African fans.
17:08Too much for South Africa, some will say.
17:12But you never know.
17:15You just never know.
17:16Confirmation is that it's a 14-over game.
17:20That's what the South Africans have at the disposal.
17:25They can face 14 overs.
17:31And...
17:32We have to try and overhaul a rather big target.
17:36There you go.
17:3673 more runs
17:39from 30 balls.
17:48Banged away.
17:49And there's some power for you.
17:52Tristan Subs.
17:54Awesome shot that.
17:55Just gave himself a bit of room
17:57and he's been able to carve this.
18:02It is accessible.
18:04If you turn around like that.
18:06Clarsen.
18:07What a shot.
18:0983 for four.
18:10A shot.
18:17A shot.
18:18Wonderful shot.
18:20Clarsen.
18:21One bounce and four.
18:25Top-notch batting that.
18:30Shot again.
18:32Oh, that's beautiful.
18:33Such control.
18:35Leg side first.
18:36And now over mid-off who's up in the circle.
18:42That's gone straight up in the air.
18:45Pressure on the catch.
18:46Pressure.
18:47Well done.
18:49Well done, Mohamed.
18:50We'll see him.
18:52Oh, did they need that?
18:55Big this wicket
18:56as it breaks this important
18:58South African partnership.
19:08Oh, that's gonna be out.
19:09That's gonna be out.
19:12Stone dead in front.
19:14Decided rather late
19:15he was going with the lap.
19:17Too quick.
19:18Smashes into his pad.
19:22Roll it through.
19:24Roll it through.
19:25There's a gap there.
19:26Keep going.
19:27Gap to the back of the ball.
19:28Roll it through.
19:29There's no ban involved.
19:31We go through to
19:31ball trick minutes available.
19:39Pitching in line.
19:40Impact in line.
19:41Hitting the wickets.
19:42You can start the original decision of out.
19:44Chris, I don't know anymore on screen.
19:46Signal now.
19:49And Tony, well,
19:50couldn't do much with that.
19:53He's gone for three.
19:5399 for six, South Africa.
19:59Same again.
20:01Pulled to the deep.
20:02Caught in the deep.
20:05Stabs goes,
20:06and with him,
20:07the hopes of South Africa.
20:08They're not going to get home,
20:17I don't think.
20:18That's a good throw from the deep.
20:20I think Ahisa Rabada's gone there.
20:36Got a ball in his hands.
20:40Roll it through the stumps.
20:43Got a decision ready for the big screen.
20:44Yeah, good work from Nawaz in the deep.
20:55Yeah, good work from Nawaz in the deep.
20:55It's the long handle.
21:00It's gone a long way up.
21:02Will this be taken at deep mid-wicket?
21:04It should be taken.
21:05It is.
21:06Pakistan's fielding has been excellent in the end of this innings.
21:09Nice change of pace by Harris Raaf.
21:13Anruf Norkia going for it.
21:14He has no choice.
21:15Head down.
21:17And a good catch by Harris out in the deep mid-wicket boundary.
21:21That is a big boundary out there,
21:23and that ball had a lot of hang time.
21:24That is the end of Anruf Norkia.
21:29He scored one of five.
21:30South Africa almost done.
21:32They're 103 for nine.
21:36They're done.
21:39And that is just chipped over mid-off.
21:41It will go away for four, I reckon.
21:43Yeah, it does.
21:45Shadab Khan shouldn't really be doing that.
21:47The star of the day with bat and ball.
21:52And he ends up with the ball in his hand.
21:54Very good from Pakistan.
21:56They win.
21:57They beat South Africa again in a World Cup T20 game.
22:01They move to third in the table.
22:03South Africa stays second.
22:15A duck for Quinton de Kock.
22:17Russo made seven.
22:19Twenty for Markham.
22:21Slight return to form for Temba Bovuma.
22:23He played nicely there.
22:24Thirty-six for nineteen.
22:26It's very important in the games ahead.
22:29But after the rain delay, the collapse came.
22:31With Klassen going for fifteen.
22:33Stubbs for eighteen.
22:34Under an eight for nine after fourteen.
22:36And with bowling, Shaheen Shiafidi was wonderful tonight.
22:43He took three for fourteen.
22:45The damage was done when Shadab Khan took those two wickets and three balls.
22:49It really put South Africa on the back foot.
22:52After that, South Africa had to come out to score a bunch of runs in a short period.
22:56They weren't able to do that.
22:57Pakistan walk home victims tonight.
23:02So Pakistan won the toss, decided to bat first.
23:05They were in trouble at forty-three for four.
23:07But fifties for Iftikar and Shadab moved them up to one hundred and eighty-five for nine.
23:11Norkia, brilliant for expensive, but four for forty-one.
23:16And South Africa in reply, one hundred and eight for nine.
23:18Thirty-six for Bovuma.
23:20And wickets for Shadab.
23:21So runs and wickets for Shadab.
23:22Nathan Rousseau's shake hands.
23:41Three inches away.
23:41Two inches away.
23:44Three inches away.
23:46Three inches away.
23:47Four inches away.
23:48Three inches away.
23:49Two inches away.
