Tabraiz Shamsi to Chris Gayle
CHANCE! A loopy ball, outside off. Gayle cuts it to point and runs across. The fielder collects the ball and has a shy at the striker's end and appeals for the run out. It is referred upstairs but replays show that de Kock dislodged the bails before the throw came! Costly, costly miss.

Tabraiz Shamsi to Evin Lewis
OUT! CAUGHT! Evin Lewis departs for a well-made 71 of just 35 balls! Might have done his job! A loopy ball, on middle. Evin Lewis looks to go downtown but gets the toe end of the bat. The ball lobs in the air towards long off where David Miller runs back and takes a wonderful catch. Both set batsmen gone. Do South Africa have a glimmer of hope? West Indies need 37 from 49 balls.
