Murali Vijay 25(127)

40.5
W
Rabada to Vijay, out Bowled!! That's KG at his best. He can bowl the yorker at will. Does Vijay in completely. Certainly Vijay didn't expect it. KG roars in delight. He loved that. That will be lunch as well. Vijay is a very frustrated man, he is walking away, swiping the bat into the turf. Superb yorker, Vijay didn't pick it, tried to clear his toes from the line of the ball, the bat came down late, thin bottom edge and back on to the stumps. Just when things were going flat, KG does the trick. Vijay b Rabada 25(127) [4s-1]
40.4

39.6
Philander to Kohli, no run, keeps a bit low, from wide of the crease, Kohli turns it to the short square leg man
38.5
Rabada to Vijay, no run, dug in short on the stumps, Vijay drops his gloves, arches back and allows the ball to go to de Kock
38.4
Rabada to Kohli, 1 run, just in front of Markram at short square leg. Flicked firmly and it lands inches in front of his left-hand. He can't stop it cleanly and they take a single
37.5
Philander to Vijay, no run, unplayable. Crikey! What a ball. Wobble seam and then it keeps coming in, how did that miss the edge and off only the ball will know. Bounces over both. The ball did everything except get the wicket
37.4
Philander to Vijay, no run, nudges it to leg as the ball is slanted into him
37.3
Philander to Kohli, 1 run, short of length on off, drop and run in front of gully. Well judged run
36.5
Rabada to Vijay, no run, goes full outside off, met with a raised bat and a leave by Vijay
36.4
Rabada to Kohli, 3 runs, spirited effort from Morne. On-driven wide of him at mid-on and he didn't give up. Pulls it back and saves a run for his team. Too full from Rabada and Kohli didn't miss out
35.5

35.4
Lungi Ngidi to Vijay, no run, in the corridor of uncertainty, lifting, left alone

34.5

34.4
Rabada to Vijay, no run, short of length on off, Vijay defends off the back foot to cover
34.3
4
Rabada to Vijay, byes, FOUR, wasted delivery. Fired down leg, no chance for a diving de Kock, he tried his best but the ball kept swerving away
34.2
Rabada to Vijay, no run, angled in, on middle, Vijay nudges it to leg
34.1
Rabada to Vijay, no run, now takes one on the hand. Immediately calls for the physio. I saw a piece of the pitch fly off when the ball landed. The umpires are concerned, they huddle around and have a word with Kohli and Faf. This ball lifted from a back of a length and spat at Vijay who was trying to block. Uneven bounce from a length
33.6
Lungi Ngidi to Kohli, no run, short of length and rising outside off, left alone
33.4
Lungi Ngidi to Kohli, 1 run, angled into middle and leg, glanced to fine leg
33.2
Lungi Ngidi to Vijay, no run, good length outside off, keeps low and bounces through to de Kock, Vijay has left that
33.1
Lungi Ngidi to Vijay, no run, the first loose drive he has played all innings. And he is beaten. Angled in on a fuller length, sucked Vijay into the drive and he is lucky to get away
32.6
Rabada to Kohli, no run, lifts from a fullish length, Kohli hoists his bat high over his head to leave. That's a good leave
32.4
Rabada to Vijay, no run, short of length around the fourth stump line, solidly defended off the back foot
32.3
Rabada to Vijay, no run, this climbs. From a back of a length and rising, coming back in, Vijay had already shouldered arms, watches it go over off
32.2
Rabada to Vijay, no run, full and well outside off, left alone
32.1
Rabada to Kohli, 1 run, pitched up outside off, Kohli steers it wide of gully, again it is AB so they are happy with just one
31.5
Lungi Ngidi to Kohli, 1 run, good length on off, Kohli drops it in front of cover, wants a quick single and gets it. Good running
31.1
Lungi Ngidi to Vijay, no run, angled in fuller, comes back in, but doesn't threaten off, Vijay lets it go
30.6
Rabada to Kohli, no run, look at this go. Woof! Right through the big bat and pad gap. Fuller and curving in, attacking off, Kohli aims for a big drive, is lucky that he doesn't get an inside edge or that the ball comes back in to hit off. de Kock dives to his left to glove
29.5
Lungi Ngidi to Vijay, no run, fullish outside off, rising through to de Kock, Vijay lets it go
29.4
Lungi Ngidi to Vijay, no run, angles it in, then moves away from a fuller length, Vijay shuffles across a bit and then shoulders arms
29.3
Lungi Ngidi to Vijay, no run, he is getting into his act. Dug in short outside off, moves away significantly, left alone
29.2
Lungi Ngidi to Vijay, no run, angles it in fuller, on off, Vijay is a tad slow to get forward to block, but jams the bat and pad together to defend
29.1
Lungi Ngidi to Vijay, no run, a loosener from Lungi Ngidi, well outside off, left alone
28.6
Rabada to Kohli, no run, hits the bat hard from a short of length, Kohli is deep in his crease and blocks to gully
28.3

28.2
Rabada to Vijay, no run, full on off, Vijay defends to cover, wants a quick single, sent back
28.1
Rabada to Vijay, no run, pitched up outside off, Vijay pushes it to mid-off
27.6
Morne Morkel to Kohli, no run, rising back of a length delivery outside off, left alone
27.2
Morne Morkel to Vijay, no run, rushes back in and hits the thigh pad, bounces in front of Elgar at third slip. No bat or glove
27.1
Morne Morkel to Vijay, no run, that's the line and length, maybe bowl that on off, to be ultra-critical, pitches on a fourth stump line and moves away late, leaving Vijay befuddled
26.6
Philander to Kohli, no run, goes slightly wide of the crease and bowls it very full, Kohli with a half-stride forward, defends to cover
26.2
Philander to Vijay, no run, probing away is Philander, but Vijay is leaving them well, another full outswinger left alone
26.1
Philander to Vijay, no run, well left. Full outswinger, moving away late, but Vijay had it covered
25.6
Morne Morkel to Kohli, no run, dug in short outside off, Kohli sits under that
25.3
Morne Morkel to Vijay, no run, full outside off, normal bounce, so Vijay leaves
25.2
Morne Morkel to Vijay, no run, what happened there? Crikey! It has shot past off after pitching on a fuller length, brought Vijay forward to defend and then the ball just refused to get up. Rolls to de Kock. Morne Morkel has a wry smile on his face. The pitch playing its trick
25.1
Morne Morkel to Vijay, no run, short of length outside off, Vijay leaves
24.6
Philander to Kohli, no run, ooh! That's lucky for Kohli. There's a backward square leg and a square leg, but no short leg, this falls in front of the square leg fielder. Fullish on middle, Kohli is late on the defence, inside edge onto the thigh pad and he gets away. Isn't happy with how he played at that
23.5
Morne Morkel to Vijay, no run, dug in short, Vijay weaves away, drops his hands and leaves
23.4
Morne Morkel to Vijay, no run, short of length on off, did nothing off the pitch, Vijay stands tall to block
23.3
Morne Morkel to Vijay, no run, fires one way outside off, easy leave
23.2
Morne Morkel to Vijay, no run, takes one on the leg and winces in pain. Then smiles at Kohli and looks ok. Lets out oohs and aahs. This pitched around leg and seams away late, opens Vijay up, who was looking to turn that to leg, hit near the groin. Just missed the box. Phew!
23.1
Morne Morkel to Vijay, no run, nudged to backward square leg
22.6
Philander to Vijay, 1 run, too full on middle, Vijay gets forward and chips it wide of Ngidi at mid-on, is happy with just a run
22.5
Philander to Vijay, no run, pitches around off, threatens to come in, but moves away and Vijay can leave
22.4
Philander to Vijay, no run, a stride forward and across, then leaves the outswinger, which curves away
22.3
Philander to Vijay, no run, short of length on the stumps, Vijay nudges it to leg
22.2
Philander to Vijay, no run, that's the danger ball. Full on off, attacking the stumps, just that it didn't move, solidly defended off the front foot. If it moves either way, both the edges are in business as well as the lbw
22.1
Philander to Vijay, no run, full outswinger, pitches outside off, moves away, Vijay lets it go
20.5
Philander to Vijay, no run, probing away around off, then getting it to move away, left alone
20.4
Philander to Pujara, 1 run, Philander is on song today. This takes the inside edge on the push and eludes backward square leg by not much. Was in the air for sure, could so easily have gone to hand
19.5
Morne Morkel to Vijay, no run, good bowling. Attacking Vijay with the short ball, on the stumps as well, he sways away from the line and lets it go. Good technique shown to avoid the short one
19.4
Morne Morkel to Vijay, no run, Vijay takes one on the ribs. He is in pain. Throws the bat away after the ball ricocheted off the thigh pad onto the rib. Moves away to leg and then Pujara comes up to have a chat. Looks alright, doesn't need the physio's attention I guess
19.3
Morne Morkel to Vijay, no run, wow! That has lifted from a short of length, Vijay did play it well though, not sparring at it, wanted to rise high and fend it down, but it kept lifting and he dropped his hands to leave
19.2
Morne Morkel to Vijay, no run, fullish around off, defended well off the back foot
19.1
Morne Morkel to Vijay, no run, short of length on the stumps, defended off the back foot
17.5
Rabada to Vijay, no run, another good leave. Pitched up and moving in ever so slightly, Vijay gets forward and across, before leaving
17.4
Rabada to Vijay, no run, flies through to de Kock after it is bowled full and wide of off, Vijay leaves
17.3
Rabada to Vijay, no run, full and just outside off, presses forward and defends it well
17.2
Rabada to Vijay, 2 runs, soft hands from Vijay and he rides the bounce by opening the bat face. Gets it well wide of second slip and it goes down to third man. Deep backward point tidies up
17.1
Rabada to Vijay, no run, starts with a short of a length delivery outside off stump, good carry through to de Kock as Vijay lets it pass
16.6
Morne Morkel to Rahul, no run, that's it for the day. Diving stop by de Villiers at cover and this check-push from Rahul fetches none
15.5
Lungi Ngidi to Rahul, 1 run, collision between ABD and Elgar in the slip cordon. Nothing serious. Elgar, running across from gully, has a laugh about it. Both of them were trying to back Rabada's throw from mid-wicket. Rahul flicked it there, went for the sharp single and then all this
14.5
Morne Morkel to Vijay, no run, delicious full lengths from Morne Morkel here. Just outside off, Vijay must be in a bit of soup to decide between playing and leaving that. Better. Much better from Morkel
14.4
Morne Morkel to Vijay, no run, on off-stump, Vijay defends it off the back foot
14.3
Morne Morkel to Vijay, no run, that takes off from a fullish length. Early shape on it, Vijay shoulders arms seeing that. And de Kock takes it in front of his face
14.2
Morne Morkel to Vijay, no run, leaves this outside off
14.1
Morne Morkel to Rahul, 1 run, full on the pads, worked through mid-wicket
13.5
Lungi Ngidi to Vijay, no run, controlled edge to gully. Gets across on his front foot and softens the impact, knowing that he can't be behind the line there. Nicely done
13.4
Lungi Ngidi to Rahul, 1 run, goes for the pad and Rahul just chokes it out off the inside half there. Quick single round the corner
12.5
Morne Morkel to Vijay, no run, shoulders arms outside off
12.4
Morne Morkel to Vijay, 2 runs, nicely goes back and across, making room for the punch through covers. Mopped up in the deep. Good that they didn't go for the third stuttered run. We don't need no more run outs
12.3
Morne Morkel to Vijay, no run, channels all his fury into this short ball on off-stump but there's no bounce. Vijay seems to have swayed out of it in ultra slow-mo!
12.2
4
Morne Morkel to Vijay, FOUR, edged between the third slip and gully. And it runs away. Seam movement from a back of a length, Vijay is caught in the crease and Morne Morkel has his hands on the back of his head. Familiar sight
12.1
Morne Morkel to Vijay, no run, stands tall and cuts a short-wide delivery.. straight to point. No force in the shot. Went loosely at it
11.6
Rabada to Rahul, no run, extra bounce from a length, Rahul defends it one-handed into the pitch. He's trying to fight it out but might have chosen the wrong pitch to grit it out. We won't leave him, will we..
11.2
Rabada to Vijay, no run, back of a length delivery angled into him, Vijay jumps and gets on top of the bounce
11.1
Rabada to Vijay, no run, looks like he's beaten but Vijay has tried to defend inside the line there. Not chasing the ball - not even a bit - as it straightens off the pitch
10.6
Morne Morkel to Rahul, no run, he gets the length nice and full but the line's stll right. And he hasn't got the kind of movement that Mr. Phil did. Easy leave
9.5
Rabada to Vijay, no run, another similar ball but doesn't to as much. Bouncing over off-stump and then swinging further down leg. de Kock dives across and takes a hit on his fingers
9.4
Rabada to Vijay, no run, save your ribs. He left it on length but that's chasing him like a stalker. Nips back in and he's almost has to sway out of the way and save his ribcage
9.3
Rabada to Vijay, no run, gets this one to nip back in but it starts too wide, so Vijay leaves, having his stumps covered off the front foot
9.2
Rabada to Vijay, no run, lets go off an outswinger from Rabada. Does too much with some seam movement adulterating the delivery
9.1
Rabada to Vijay, no run, defending a pretty full ball from the crease. Good thing is that he's right on top the the bounce there
8.6
Philander to Rahul, no run, plays late and taps it into the pitch. Was spitting up at Rahul from outside off but he dealt with it well, waiting for the ball to do its bit
7.6
4
Rabada to Rahul, FOUR, now Rahul was backing away here. Rabada bowls it very full and very wide outside off, and Rahul reaches out to slap the drive through covers. India will take this. A tad too full from Rabada here
7.4
Rabada to Vijay, no run, you can't play that. Moves away off the deck and climbs past the outside edge. Nothing more that you can say about that
7.3
Rabada to Vijay, no run, he's generating some pace off the deck. 142ks back of a length ball, seaming in toom and Vijay had to get his arms up, and then some, to leave this. Does well in the end. Have seen the ball take the arms and clatter into the stumps
7.2
Rabada to Vijay, no run, nicely sways out of the line of this incoming short ball. 145 clicks *burning fire gif*
7.1
Rabada to Vijay, 2 runs, this is not a pitch to play the first line. Vijay sees the ball coming in, goes for the flick and sees the leading edge roll through covers
6.6
Philander to Rahul, no run, wipe-the-windshield leave. Gets the front leg across his stumps and leaves the full ball late
5.5
Rabada to Vijay, no run, outswinger but it starts wide, Vijay shoulders arms
5.4
Rabada to Vijay, no run, shaping in, Vijay defends
5.3
Rabada to Vijay, no run, goes back and blocks a back of a length delivery
5.2
Rabada to Rahul, 1 run, misfield by Ngidi at mid-wicket and Rahul gets off the mark with a slightly wristy tap into the leg-side. Vijay was slow on his feet to get going
4.1
Philander to Parthiv Patel, 1 run, there's the quick single to cover. A slight fumble after Parthiv Patel pats, as de Villiers loses the ball in trying to slide and throw the ball at the bowler's end. Another one added to India's lead
3.5
Rabada to Vijay, no run, outside off, good bounce, left alone this time by Vijay
3.4
Rabada to Parthiv Patel, 1 run, the idea is right from Rabada, to seam the ball across Parthiv Patel, like Bhuvi did but he's not getting the same amount of seam movement. So Parthiv Patel ticks another one to fine leg
2.5
Philander to Vijay, no run, Philander isn't quite getting the line of his outswingers right, again it's well outside off and Vijay has another sighter
2.4
Philander to Vijay, no run, nice fullish outswinger just outside off, probing line and it's a good leave from Vijay
2.3
Philander to Vijay, no run, loses his radar and spears this down leg, Vijay cannot get bat on it and de Kock does well to dive to his left
2.2
Philander to Vijay, no run, another outswinger and Vijay has probably read it from the hand, the wider line outside off helps him to leave it alone
2.1
Philander to Vijay, no run, the away swinger from a good length, fifth stump channel and Vijay leaves
1.6
Rabada to Parthiv Patel, no run, play and a miss! Back of a length well outside off, Patel slashes at it but connects thin air
0.5
Philander to Vijay, no run, slightly better line, fifth stump channel and this seams away with extra bounce. Vijay shoulders arms
0.4
Philander to Vijay, no run, Philander hasn't started well here in terms of line, probably just warming up to the task. Another away curler that's quite wide outside off, a sighter for Vijay
0.3
Philander to Vijay, no run, another outswinger that's quite wide outside off, a rather easy leave
0.2
Philander to Vijay, no run, lovely shape on this away curler but the wider line allows Vijay to leave
0.1
Philander to Vijay, no run, starts with a wayward line, just around leg and it goes further down as Vijay misses the flick
Move to top
