Edge and four! Streak but South Africa don’t care which way they come from! Need 12 off the last 4 balls. Accelerating forward, angling, on off, back of a length, Kagiso Rabada bowls the kitchen sink and takes the outside edge and the ball goes between the keeper and short third for a boundary.

19.1 overs (0 runs)
OUT! What an amazing catch! Suryakumar Yadav, you are gorgeous! Brilliant mind on the ropes and he has won the World Cup for India with this effort. David Miller can’t believe it! The over India were looking for had started. Pandya’s delivery was not good, he pushed the ball forward as a full toss, outside off, David Miller pushed the ball down. He looked like he had caught the ball quite a bit, but Suryakumar Yadav at long off steadied himself on the rope and kept his eye on the ball throughout. Held the catch and just as his momentum took him past the rope, he dropped the catch. Came back to complete the catch.
Is it a catch? Has Suryakumar Yadav taken the most brilliant catch at the most crucial moment? This catch could go down in cricket history as one of the best catches if SKY managed to keep his foot away from the rope. The third umpire was called and it was a very close decision. What an effort and the conclusion is that SKY managed to avoid the rope and will be given out!
Hardik Pandya will bowl the last over. South Africa need 16 runs to win, it was a great game. Which team will keep its composure in the last over? Let’s find out.
