Axar strikes! South Africa 49/3 after 7 overs | Target - 238
BIG WICKET! Axar Patel came into the attack and took no time to scalp his first victim. The left-armer clean bowled 'in-form' Aiden Markram (33 off 19) with the second delivery of his spell. A big wicket and just four runs off it. Markram was the one keeping the scoreboard ticking for the visitors, so it was a big setback for them in the massive run chase.
