    Raina picks up his second maximum of the innings with a majestic flick over the mid wicket fence off Yasir Shah. Getting louder than ever now in Adelaide.

    "A steward, who presumably doesn't like fun, confiscates a whistle from an India fan and adds it to his collection of horns and other noisy devices. Not satisfied, he tells some fans, who have no one behind them, to sit down. Smiling, our big killjoy heads off to tell Tigger not to bounce any more."

    Shahid Afridi continues to test my fast typing skills as he races through another over of his off spin. Seven added for India in ones and twos.

    Time to stock up on the fluids over in Hamilton. (That's the South Africa and Zimbabwe players, not the thirsty spectators)

    So it is time for us to take stock of the match situation. Zimbabwe are still ticking over nicely as opener Chamu Chibhabha closes on his half century, ably assisted by Hamilton Masakadza (28).

    Zimbabwe are scoring just under six an over, so will need to up the ante if they want to match South Africa's hefty target.

  6. Ind 217-2 (Riaz 8-0-41-0)published at 06:34 Greenwich Mean Time 15 February 2015

    Wahab Riaz continues to bowl a tight line here for Pakistan. Just the four singles from it and India safely negotiated that batting powerplay by scoring 25 without loss.

    "The match is really in the balance now. If Pakistan can keep India to 280, they will fancy their chances of chasing it down. But there's enough batting left for India to put their foot down and go quickly."

  8. Ind 213-2 (50 partnership off 56 balls)published at 06:28 Greenwich Mean Time 15 February 2015

    Virat Kohli moves in to the 90s as he glances Mohammad Irfan for four from a loose delivery. Pakistan have done a good job so far off keeping this powerplay tight, but Irfan shows some sloppiness as he sends down a wide with a short ball to Raina. Up comes the 50 partnership between Kohli and Raina.

    "This is almost like a Twenty20 innings now. India's batsmen are in and going well."

  10. Ind 206-2 (Kohli 87, Raina 27)published at 06:23 Greenwich Mean Time 15 February 2015

    Suresh Raina opens his shoulders and clubs Wahab Riaz over long-on for four. A dismissive stroke and the first boundary in the powerplay. Virat Kohli meanwhile, looks a bit becalmed and hasn't seen a lot of the strike in the last few overs.

    JP Duminy was one of the South Africa stars with the bat in Hamilton - can he dazzle with the ball in the late-afternoon sunshine.

  14. Ind 200-2 (run rate 5.41)published at 06:18 Greenwich Mean Time 15 February 2015

    Mohammad Irfan is brought back in to the attack. From the opposite end to where Ian Gould gave him two warnings earlier for running on the pitch in his follow through. He comes round the wicket and Raina pulls a short ball for a single to bring up the 200 off the final ball.

  16. Ind 196-2 (Kohli 85, Raina 19)published at 06:15 Greenwich Mean Time 15 February 2015

    Wahab Riaz is back on to bowl as Misbah-ul-Haq abandons his spin at both ends approach. Worth reminding you we're now in the mandatory batting powerplay, which might have influenced his thinking. Four singles off the left-armer's return over.

    "It's difficult for these Pakistan players. Somebody like Umar Akmal has played almost 10 international games for Pakistan, but has never played in his own country."

    Shahid Afridi rattles through another over, which only goes for two runs. India captain MS Dhoni sits waiting expectantly in the dug-out to come in, perhaps at the fall of the next wicket.

    BBC Monitoring's Vikas Pandey: "Life in India and Pakistan has come to a standstill. TV channels, radio or corner shops - cricket is all around."

    Looking like they're on a mission these two to up the ante. Could be a painful few overs here for Pakistan.
