Bhurtel to Rabada, OUT!
One wicket leads to two. Good end to the last over for the bowling side. Rabada is done and it's a golden duck. Into the tail now. Seven batters back in the shed after 20 overs. Rabada is stumped. Length ball on leg stump. Rabada misses an attempted slog. Nepal grab 2 wickets for 9 runs in the over. Bhurtel's economy rate is 4.8 runs per over and has figures of four for 19. That gets us to the halfway point of the game. South Africa finish on 115 runs for the loss of 7 wickets. After the turnaround Nepal will start the chase with confidence that they can reach this total.
Rabada, left-handed bat, comes to the middle.
