Ottneil Baartman to Gulshan Jha
OUT! RUN-OUT! SOUTH AFRICA HOLD THEIR NERVE! AGONY FOR NEPAL! They have fallen short by just one run. Ottneil Baartman bowls it short again, around off. Jha plays and misses again. The batters look to scamper for a bye as de Kock throws it at the bowler's end but the ball hits the back of Jhas. Heinrich Klaasen collects it quickly and knocks down the stumps. Gulshan Jha is short of his crease and Nepal fails to get over the line. Soo close and yet so far for Nepal.

Anil Sah reaches out and looks to thump it over long on but gets it quite height without any real timing. Marco Jansen comes in from the deep and slides forward to reverse-cup is nicely.

Drinks break! Well then, Nepal seemed to be a decent job with the bat and remained unscathed in the Powerplay. However, that double breakthrough from Tabraiz Shamsi has brought South Africa right back in the contest and on this deck, it won't easy scoring runs at around 7 runs per over. Nepal do have wickets in hand and Aasif Sheikh has been out there from the beginning and will be expected to kick on from here. Let's see how the chase unfolds.

A bit of a hold-up in the play now. The middle stump seems to have been shattered here and needs a bit of repairing. All good now and Sompal Kami comes in to face the next delivery.

What happened here? Drama right at the death, wow! That could probably be the most heartbreaking way for Nepal to lose the game. De Kock's throw ricocheted off the batter but Heinrich Klaasen was right there and he flicked the ball onto the stumps at the bowler's end. The replays show that Gulshan Jha was just short of his crease and OUT comes up on the big screen. Even if Klaasen had missed, South Africa might have appealed for obstruction of field as well given Jha ran straight down the middle of the pitch.

Right then, what a fabulous contest we have witnessed here at the Arnos Vale Ground in St Vincent and the 2024 ICC Men's T20 World Cup just keeps giving us these humdingers which the neutrals certainly enjoy a lot. Also, in Tarouba, New Zealand have demolished a hapless Uganda side by 9 wickets in what is a consolation win for the Kiwis. There's still group stage action left in the tournament and next up, it will be India taking on Canada in Lauderhill on Saturday, 15 June at 8 pm IST (2.30 pm GMT) but as usual, you can join us a lot sooner for the build-up. Till then, take care and goodbye!

Marco Jansen to Kushal Bhurtel
Oh, that was steep bounce and that is an unreal take from Quinton de Kock behind the stumps. Marco Jansen just strolls in and bangs it in short and quick over the stumps, Kushal Bhurtel is early to back away but the ball just takes off after hitting the deck and de Kock leaps up, grabbing it with the right glove.

Marco Jansen to Kushal Bhurtel
SIX! Wow, that is some shot from Kushal Bhurtel. Dug in a bit short and over the stumps, Burtel shuffles across to the off side and flicks it away over short fine leg and travels all the way for a maximum.

Kagiso Rabada to Aasif Sheikh
Four dots on the trot now! On a good length and outside off, moving away a lot and bouncing a bit extra as well. Aasif Sheikh looks to back away and open up the off side but misses.

Kagiso Rabada to Aasif Sheikh
DROPPED! Oh, dear! Kagiso Rabada has made a meal off an absolute sitter of a catch and Aasif Sheikh is let off the hook here. Pitched up now and around off, Aasif Sheikh just throws his hands at it and ends up miscuing the ball straight up in the air. Rabada settles himself under it but the ball moves a bit and the ball goes straight through the hands.
