India vs South Africa, 43rd Match, Super 8 Group 1 (X1 v X4), ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2026 - Highlights

Hardik Pandya to Tristan Stubbs, SIX, back-to-back sixes and South Africa end with 187. Not sure if Hardik Pandya got his length right here? Another slower short ball that hardly has any venom, Stubbs is camping deep inside the crease, swivels across and thumps it over deep backward square leg for a maximum

Hardik Pandya to Tristan Stubbs, SIX, clubbed, another slower ball from Hardik, but this one simply sits up to be smacked - Stubbs stands tall, stays deep in the crease and shovels it over long-on for a maximum

Hardik Pandya to Tristan Stubbs, FOUR, Sundar goes for the catch and can't save the boundary either, slower short ball from Pandya and Stubbs slugged it over backward square leg, didn't get hold of the shot - Sundar ran in from the deep, the ball was dropping onto him, he tries to slide and then get his body behind the ball, but can't do so

Hardik Pandya to Tristan Stubbs, 2 runs, a run-out chance at the bowler's end, but Hardik can't collect the ball cleanly, allowing Kagiso Rabada to scramble back home. Was a perfect yorker and Stubbs squeezes it out to deep mid-on

Jasprit Bumrah to Corbin Bosch, out Caught&Bowled!! Lovely from Bumrah - spears one full and right in the blockhole. Bosch jams the bat down and squeezes it back at the bowler. Is it a bump ball? Or did he scoop it back on the full to the bowler? It's an umpire's review and the replays show that Bosch has actually popped one right back at the bowler. This is serious death over bowling from India - speared in full and at the stumps, Bosch jammed the bat down hard and the ball lobbed to the right of the bowler - Bumrah taking a nonchalant return catch. Corbin Bosch c and b Jasprit Bumrah 5(6) [4s-1]

Arshdeep Singh to Corbin Bosch, FOUR, cracking shot, tad too short from Arshdeep, sits up to be smacked and Bosch doesn't miss out - gets on top of the bounce and hammers the pull through mid-wicket

Arshdeep Singh to Marco Jansen, out Caught by Rinku Singh!! India are doing well in this final stretch - On a length and angling into the right-hander, Jansen clears his front-leg and then heaves it with the angle, but he hasn't struck it cleanly and Rinku gobbles up a simple catch at deep mid-wicket. Came more off the inner half, not a lot of distance and no real elevation either. Marco Jansen c Rinku Singh b Arshdeep Singh 2(6)

Varun Chakaravarthy to David Miller, out Caught by Tilak Varma!! A chance and David Miller has holed out to long-off - Chakaravarthy might've been expensive, but he has the knack of taking big wickets and no wicket is bigger than David Miller tonight. Slows down the pace and drifts one wider of off, made the left-hander reach out on the lofted drive and he doesn't get hold of the shot - hit a tad higher on the bat and spoons a sitter down to Tilak at long-off. David Miller c Tilak Varma b Varun Chakaravarthy 63(35) [4s-7 6s-3]

Varun Chakaravarthy to Tristan Stubbs, SIX, smashed, they've taken on Chakaravarthy with ease tonight, fraction too full and just outside off, it's right in the slot and Stubbs swings through the line, sending it soaring over long-on for a maximum

Hardik Pandya to David Miller, FOUR, nicely played, short of a good length and pushed across the left-hander - Miller opens the face of the bat and then runs it past the keeper, third man is inside the ring and has no chance

Shivam Dube to David Miller, SIX, a 26-ball fifty for David Miller. Reached out for the full ball outside off and flayed it over deep backward point for a maximum. This has been one of the best knocks of Miller in World Cups...

Shivam Dube to Dewald Brevis, out Caught by Abhishek Sharma!! The change of length works. Slower back of a length delivery outside off, Brevis was forced to fetch the pull and hit it to the longest part of the ground. Gets a top-edge and picks out Abhishek well inside the boundary ropes at deep mid-wicket. Dewald Brevis c Abhishek Sharma b Shivam Dube 45(29) [4s-3 6s-3]

Shivam Dube to Dewald Brevis, SIX, slower ball from Shivam Dube and Brevis has managed just enough timing (on the loft) to evade the leaping fielder at long-off. Not off the middle, but the ball kept flying away from the reach of Sundar to his left

Varun Chakaravarthy to David Miller, FOUR, Varun Chakaravarthy drops it short once again and Miller used the depth of the crease to smash it past the diving fielder (SKY) at extra cover to his left

Shivam Dube to Dewald Brevis, SIX, a juicy full toss outside off from Shivam Dube, Brevis held his shape and deposited that for a 83-metre maximum over long-on

Shivam Dube to Dewald Brevis, FOUR, overpitched wide of off, Brevis played that like he was playing Hockey. Used the bottom hand power and thwacked it really straight, giving no chance for the fielder at long-off whatsoever...

Hardik Pandya to David Miller, SIX, and he has taken full toll of the freehit ball. Dug in short outside off, Miller played the swat pull and got plenty of bottom hand power into that shot. It was a slower ball alright, but Miller timed it well enough to claim a 88-metre sixer over wide long-on

Varun Chakaravarthy to Dewald Brevis, SIX, he loves playing against spin does Dewald Brevis. Full on off stump, Brevis went low and smoked it clean down the ground for a 82-metre maximum. A no-look special from Dewald Brevis...

Varun Chakaravarthy to Dewald Brevis, FOUR, Varun saw Brevis backing away and fired it in on the stumps. Brevis though did not take his eyes off the ball and played a really late cut off the back foot to beat the fielder at sweeper cover to his left

Varun Chakaravarthy to David Miller, SIX, Varun goes full and gets dispatched! It was right in front of middle and leg, Miller cleared his front leg and marmalized it many-a-mile over the long-on fence. 95-metre maximum that

Washington Sundar to David Miller, FOUR, superb shot off the back foot! Miller made room and crunched the flat delivery down the ground wide of extra cover, beating the diving effort of Tilak at long-off to his right

Washington Sundar to Dewald Brevis, FOUR, poor first ball that from Sundar. Dropped short outside off, Brevis transferred his weight onto the back foot and spanked it all along the ground in the gap through extra cover

Arshdeep Singh to David Miller, FOUR, magical stuff from David Miller. 134ks back of a length just outside off, Miller punches off the back foot and places it past the sliding fielder at cover to his left

Arshdeep Singh to David Miller, FOUR, 129ks short on off stump, Miller was quick to rock back and heave the pull past the diving left hand of Abhishek at mid-wicket. The timing took care of the rest...

Varun Chakaravarthy to David Miller, FOUR, that was loaded a bit fuller from Varun and Miller has tonked it over mid-off with terrific timing

Varun Chakaravarthy to David Miller, FOUR, pokes at a quicker delivery and gets a thick outside edge that runs away past the slip fielder to his left. No chance for Abhishek there...

Jasprit Bumrah to Ryan Rickelton, out Caught by Shivam Dube!! Jasprit Bumrah with his arms aloft as the crowd go bonkers in Ahmedabad. Slower delivery that pitched outside leg and angled in towards middle stump. Rickelton was early into the loft and ended up chipping an easy catch to the fielder at mid-off. What an opening spell this from Jasprit Bumrah. That said, the surface seems to be keeping a touch low and the slower balls are gripping as well. Anything over 160 might prove competitive? Ryan Rickelton c Shivam Dube b Jasprit Bumrah 7(7) [6s-1]

Arshdeep Singh to Ryan Rickelton, SIX, launched! Short and slanted down leg, Rickelton helped it into the fine leg stands with a well-timed pull. He swivelled across and timed it really well for a 78-metre maximum

Arshdeep Singh to Aiden Markram, out Caught by Hardik Pandya!! That is catching practice for Hardik Pandya. 135ks slightly overpitched outside off, Markram tries to smash the drive down the ground and picks out the man at mid-off. He wanted to use the bottom hand power to clear the fielder, but got it off the toe end of the bat. Both openers back in the hutch for South Africa. Aiden Markram c Hardik Pandya b Arshdeep Singh 4(7)

Jasprit Bumrah to Quinton de Kock, out Bowled!! The leg peg has been smashed. No feet from de Kock. Tries to slog the 137ks nip-backer and misses it completely. It tailed enough and kept a fraction low to beat QDK on the under edge. Bumrah used the crease and went a bit wide to create the angle. Quinton de Kock b Jasprit Bumrah 6(7) [4s-1]

Jasprit Bumrah to Quinton de Kock, FOUR, first boundary of the game! 137ks full toss in the slot outside off, QDK slaps it square and gets enough timing to slice it past the fielder at cover to his right
