    Wahab Riaz to Tahir
    and it is all over as Pakistan romp to a famous 29-run victory (D/L) at Eden Park! Tahir was looking to simply get bat on ball to this fast delivery outside off, before offering a chance to Sarfraz, who has now broken the record for most catches in an ODI by a Pakistani wicketkeeper, picking up the record-breaking catch with this effort

    Wahab Riaz to Tahir
    round the wicket to Tahir as he gropes at this fuller length, but is late on it

    Wahab Riaz to Morkel
    ramps away this short of a length outside off to third man
    32.6

    Sohail Khan to Tahir
    has a late waft at this length delivery outside of off, with this one flying through to the keeper in the end
    32.5
    0
    Sohail Khan to Tahir
    short ball which has Tahir bending his back to avoid the delivery

    Sohail Khan to Tahir
    how did that not strike the base of middle? delivers a wonderful yorker which is just dug out, but only at the very last moment
    32.4
    1
    Sohail Khan to Tahir
    looked to glance away Sohail through fine leg, but fails to make any connection. Called wide as Sohail and the umpire feigned the appeal
    32.3
    0
    Sohail Khan to Tahir
    tries to dab one through third man, but was never really in position for the shot
    32.2
    W
    Sohail Khan to de Villiers
    AB comes down the track to this short delivery, with the intention of blasting this over long on, but ends up feathering an outside edge to Sarfraz, who has been safe as houses behind the stumps. That could be the end for South Africa as AB departs for a courageous 77
    32.1
    4
    Sohail Khan to de Villiers
    gets a thick outside edge outside off as he looked to hammer Sohail through the covers, with the resulting edge flying away to the third man boundary
    31.6
    0
    Wahab Riaz to Morkel
    short delivery which is dabbed down to third man, reaching the fielder after one bounce, but he was able to hold on to it despite overrunning just a touch
    31.5
    1
    Wahab Riaz to de Villiers
    shows his finesses with a glide outside off through third man. Morkel back on now to face the final ball of the over
    31.4
    4
    Wahab Riaz to de Villiers
    looking to attack long on, but instead gets a top-edge which flies high to deep extra-cover, with the ball having enough on it to reach the boundary after a couple of bounces
    31.3
    0
    Wahab Riaz to de Villiers
    keeps out this back of a length from round the wicket
    31.2

    Wahab Riaz to de Villiers
    AB is just too good. Riaz offers a low, full toss and you just can't bowl like this to him, as he smokes this high over midwicket to pick up a valuable six
    31.1
    0
    Wahab Riaz to de Villiers
    goes round the wicket to AB as he gets away a shot through third man. Doesn't bother to run though
    30.6
    0
    Sohail Khan to Morkel
    fires in a good length which raps the top of the pads of Morne as he looked to defend
    30.6
    1
    Sohail Khan to Morkel
    bangs in a short delivery which is given a wide by the leg umpire. It's kind of funny because Wasim was asked just before what he would have done, and he specifically said not to bowl that kind of delivery, which Sohail naturally ended up doing anyways
    30.5
    1
    Sohail Khan to de Villiers
    searching for the yorker as he instead offers a low, full toss down the leg side which is helped away by AB through square-leg
    30.4
    1
    Sohail Khan to Morkel
    Morne pushes at this length delivery towards mid-off as he just makes his ground at the other end before the throw from the fielder. Gets AB back on strike
