    South Africa spinner Tabraiz Shamsi: "I won't lie, we were all nervous at the end, but I'm glad to be here and smiling. Nothing much has changed with my game, just a few more opportunities to play regularly. I'm just glad to be working with this bowling unit. I've said before it is the best bowling attacking in the world and I stand by that."

    Oh and ENGLAND HAVE WON THE TOSS AGAINST AUSTRALIA in Dubai.

    That's a big help for Eoin Morgan's side.

    We'll have the usual coverage of that game very shortly.

    It's a very important win for South Africa in the competition.

    That was not a great final over from Kumara. It was really bad, in fact.

    You've got to feel for Hasaranga. He took a hat-trick and is on the losing side.

    The South Africa players celebrate by the boundary.

    Two games yesterday and this one today have been nail-biters - it's great for the spectators.

    Breaking

    What a game.

    Kagiso Rabada edges the penultimate ball through the vacant slip area. South Africa win! They have kept themselves in the hunt.

    Scores are level.

    South Africa only need two from three balls now. Game over?

    This is exactly what he is capable of. Miller is executing his skills brilliantly.

    MILLER HAS DONE IT AGAIN!

    It was in the slot again and - as with the last ball - Miller crunches it - over mid-wicket. He roars in delight too.

    We're going to have a break while they retrieve the ball. It's the Sri Lanka fans who look stunned now. One lady is close to tears.

    That is Davy Miller's wheelhouse. Perfect execution.

    SMOKED INTO THE STANDS BY DAVID MILLER!

    That changes everything.

    It's eight from four to win now.

    Rabada's head rocks back. He's missed out there. Only one.

    14 from five needed but South Africa have Miller on strike.

    It'll be the pace of Lahiru Kumara to bowl the final over.

    South Africa need 15 from six balls to win.

    Target 143

    That's a good comeback from Chameera when his heart must be beating out of his chest. Rabada takes a single from the final ball of the 19th leaving 15 to get from the final six deliveries.

  20. SA 127-6published at 18.5 overs

    Dot ball. This is great.

    16 from seven balls needed.
