  1. SA 188-4published at 39.2 overs

    It gets tougher for South Africa. The impressive leg-spinner Shadab Khan returns.

    Hassan Ali is on the field as a substitute and does a good job of preventing a second run with a sprint in from the deep.

    It's shot a ball time now for South Africa. Have a dip.

  3. SA 186-4published at 39 overs

    Need 123 runs to win from 66 balls

    Two big swings from David Miller at the end of Wahab's over and he doesn't connect with either of them. South Africa have to go hard now but they're not getting the runs they need.

    A lot of fast bowlers throw themselves off their feet - Mark Wood and Jasprit Bumrah do it too.

    Everyone is down. Wahab Riaz rolls around on the pitch after stumbling in his follow-through. At the other end the delivery beats Van der Dussen's swinging blade and the batsman is hit on the body.

    AS: If Pakistan lose today, they can blame the dropped catches.

  7. SA 185-4published at 38.2 overs

    Settle down everyone. As a completely impartial observer I'm confident Pakistan are winning this.

    There's some tension down in the stands among the Pakistan fans at those two missed chances off Wahab Riaz.

    You'd probably still make them favourites to win from here, but when you need a win, the pressure just ramps up a notch with every crucial moment that passes.

    At least South Africa are going out with a bit of a swing.

    It was just going away from him; just out of his reach.

  11. SA 182-4published at 38 overs

    Required run-rate 10.66

    The ball is following Amir around. Having dropped one a couple of overs ago, Miller clunks one off the outer part of his bat just out of his reach on the dive.

    13 from the over.

    127 needed from 72 balls.

  12. 6 runs

    SA 179-4published at 37.4 overs

    Some aggression! Van der Dussen now hits Shaheen into orbit.

    It actually goes further up than it goes long but it just clears the boundary rope. The first six for a long time.

  13. SA 172-4published at 37.1 overs

    Miller crunches Shaheen and the ball keeps travelling to the boundary. Can this be a big over to get South Africa back into it?

  14. SA 168-4published at 37 overs

    Target 309

    Mickey Arthur shakes his head on the Pakistan balcony. He's not impressed with the fielding in that over.

    He should have caught that.

  16. dropped catch

    Miller dropped on 20published at 36.5 overs

    Two drops in two balls! This one should have been taken by Mohammad Amir running in from third man.

    Van der Dussen dropped on 23published at 36.4 overs

    Van der Dussen finally has a swish. He edges the ball to Sarfaraz's right and the keeper spills it going one-handed.

  18. SA 164-4published at 36.3 overs

    Two dots and a single at the start of Wahab's latest over.

    Miller kicks at the pitch in disgust.

    South Africa are going nowhere.

    It's been confused thinking from South Africa since the start of the tournament. If you are on the plane home the least you want to say is that you had a go.

  20. SA 163-4published at 36 overs

    Need 146 from 84 balls

    Chris Morris, Imran Tahir and Kagiso Rabada look glum on the South Africa balcony. Andile Phehlukwayo will be in next and then it'll be down to those three and Lungi Ngidi.

    Shaheen Afridi returns with a good tight over. Two runs and a leg bye from it.

    South Africa's chances are fading fast.
