It felt like a tame dismissal, Miller couldn't believe what he'd done. Nabi said "thank you very much!"

Miller c & b Nabi 24 (SA 182-5)
Or not! The softest of dismissals!
David Miller shakes his head in disbelief as he trudges off having just tapped the ball back into the hands of Mohammad Nabi.
Very, very tame just as he was getting into his groove.
Again, just as South Africa are looking solid, they throw one away.

An in-form David Miller would be a very handy asset for South Africa going into the semi-final.

Target 245
The Rahmat Shah experiment comes to an end very abruptly.
Noor Ahmad returns and starts with the most ambitious of lbw reviews against Van der Dussen. Apart from pitching a mile outside leg stump and missing all three, it was a decent shout.

Target 245
Patience, it seems. Just three from the over with very little alarm for the batters.

Former Australia bowler on BBC Test Match SpecialRashid Khan was taken out of the attack, but after that release of pressure he's been brought back to take a wicket.
SA 175-4published at 35.1 overs
Big moment. Here's Rashid Khan, with just two overs left.
Interesting to see if South Africa just see him off patiently, or keep attacking.

Former Australia bowler on BBC Test Match SpecialIt's a shame, that over has released all the pressure. It's just gone.
50 for Rassie van der Dussenpublished at 35 overs
SA 175-4
A freebie from Rahmat Shah as he drops too short, and Rassie van der Dussen isn't going to miss out on that.
He helps it on its way for four and brings up a fine half-century, an innings of patience combined with occasional flair from 66 balls.

Former Australia bowler on BBC Test Match SpecialThat's the danger of changing bowlers and not quite hitting the mark.

SA 170-4published at 34.2 overs
Interesting move from Afghanistan as they turn to Rahmat Shah's part-time spin.
And his second ball is launched down the ground for an almighty six by David Miller.
Class.

Target 245
Just a single from a very respectable Mohammad Nabi over.
South Africa aren't in much of a rush.

Former Australia bowler on BBC Test Match SpecialIt's incredible how Nabi deceives batters time and time again with such a simple action.

Nikesh called it! Missing leg stump.

BBC Test Match Special commentatorThat looks pretty straight. Was it just turning and drifting past leg stump?
Afghanistan reviewpublished at 33.3 overs
Now then!
Big moment. Mohammad Nabi is very confident about this lbw shout on Rassie van der Dussen.
He convinces the skipper to send it upstairs.

BBC Test Match Special commentatorWell fielded at mid-wicket, he's saved three runs but Naveen looks to have done some damage to his right hand.
Straight away, the physio is being called for.
