    Kohli is buzzing here. He's charging everywhere.

    This could be his last World Cup remember.

  2. SA 157-6

    Need 20 from 11

    Precious dot. Defended. Should they have taken the single from the last ball of the previous over. Arshdeep is bowling, by the way. Hardik will bowl the last.

  3. Steven Finn
    Former England fast bowler on BBC Sounds

    Jasprit Bumrah is a ridiculous cricketer. Somehow, taking 2-18 has increased his economy rate for the tournament.

  4. SA 157-6

    Need 20 from 12

    Pinches a single.

    Bumrah is done with 2-18. He's a magician.

    South Africa need 10 an over. It was a run a ball two overs ago.

  5. Steven Finn
    Former England fast bowler on BBC Sounds

    He's defended that like he's saving a Test match.

  6. SA 156-6

    Target 177

    Defended. Just.

    Need 21 off 13.

  7. Steven Finn
    Former England fast bowler on BBC Sounds

    Keshav Maharaj is a capable batter but he's probably a place too high at number eight.

    But, his job is simple. Stay there with David Miller.

  8. SA 156-6

    Target 177

    Keshav Maharaj. Good luck.

  9. Steven Finn
    Former England fast bowler on BBC Sounds

    What a delivery. It's angled in at leg stump, Jansen doesn't do much wrong. It's nipped straight through bat and pad.

    He is marvellous.

  10. Henry Moeran
    BBC Test Match Special commentator on BBC Sounds

    Oh, it's a beauty.

  11. wicket

    WICKET

    Jansen b Bumrah 2 (SA 156-6)

    Unbelievable.

    He's just too good, isn't he? It's a peach from Jasprit Bumrah, inswinging, quick, straight through Marco Jansen, who can only look down at his shattered stumps.

    21 off 14.

  12. Steven Finn
    Former England fast bowler on BBC Sounds

    No. Absolutely not.

  13. Henry Moeran
    BBC Test Match Special commentator on BBC Sounds

    Does Jansen have some freedom here?

  14. SA 156-5

    Need 21 from 15

    Cut for a single. Jansen on strike.

  15. Matthew Henry
    BBC Sport in Barbados

    It's still horribly tense and I'm only trying to write you a match report.

  16. SA 155-5

    Target 177

    Defended. Dot ball. 22 from 16.

  17. Steven Finn
    Former England fast bowler on BBC Sounds

    I like it. Rohit knows that he can't afford to leave it too late.

    For me, if South Africa survive this over, they win. It's huge.

  18. SA 155-5

    Target 177

    It's Bumrah, going past Miller's edge

  19. SA 155-5

    Need 22 off 18

    Bumrah one over, Arshdeep one over and probably Hardik one more.

    Two sixes or three fours probably win it for South Africa.

  20. Steven Finn
    Former England fast bowler on BBC Sounds

    Huge decision coming next from Rohit Sharma.

    Does he risk Jasprit Bumrah's last over?
