South Africa are in a huddle.. The Indian openers walk out. It will be Steyn to start off. One slip in place..

Welcome back.. India looked shell-shocked at the end of South Africa's carnage. Remember - Johannesburg, 2006? Who will be India's Gibbs? Who will play the role of Mick Lewis? Or will India simply collapse. There's one chance though, if there's any rain and the match is reduced to a 20-overs chase, India will need to be at 158/0 to end up on the winning note.

de Kock: 'It's been good. There are good wickets here and you got to cash in when you can. Everytime I come here, I want to do well. I was extremely happy to get to my hundred. It's a good surface, it might change now. It was a little slower but it might quicken up. Hopefully, we can take a couple of wickets early on, hopefully there will be a bit of movement. This has just become a normal thing for AB (talking about de Villiers' knock). He doesn't even celebrate like he used to. Just puts his bat up and says thank you.'

On the other hand, India would rue the fact that they dropped a slew of catches. Mohit dropped de Kock. Mishra and Rahane shelled one chance each. du Plessis was the lucky batsman on both occasions.The only bowler, who offered some control for MS Dhoni was Harbhajan Singh. Bhuvneshwar went for 106 runs in his quota of 10 overs. He now has given away the most runs by an Indian in ODIs. It is a flat deck and the outfield is lightning fast. However, the Indian batsmen have a herculean task on their hands.

Interestingly, every time he has reached a fifty, he has converted it into a century against India. Once de Kock was prised out by Suresh Raina, de Villiers took over and recorded his third century of the series. He posted his century in a mere 57 balls. Even when he miscued a pull off Bhuvneshwar in the 39th over, it sailed into the stands. His innings consisted of a mere three fours and as many as 11 sixes!

Even when one hand came off the bat handle, he was able to loft Bhuvneshwar Kumar for a boundary through the off-side in the 44th over. Eventually, he retired hurt due to cramps. Lest we forget that de Kock and de Villiers too flayed India's attack. After Hashim Amla was chugged down at the start of the innings by Mohit, de Kock essayed some sparkling lofted shots.

In particular, du Plessis, once he reached his century smashed the opposition to smithereens. In the 43rd over bowled by Axar Patel, he played a volley of thunderous strokes by thwacking three sixes and a boundary. Remember, he was suffering from cramps, yet he continued to muscle the ball and scythed it through all corners of the ground.

It turned out to be a run-feast at the Wankhade stadium in Mumbai as the tourists ended up with a monstrous total. South Africa's total is the third highest score in ODIs. Quinton de Kock, AB de Villiers and Faf du Plessis all cracked thrill-a-minute tons. The bowlers were smacked as though it is a shooting range and spectators ducked for cover in the stands.

48.2 - Bhuvneshwar to D Miller, FOUR, they keep bowling short and they keep going for runs. However, the Indians are not learning their lessons. Short and at the batsman, Miller once again pulls it in the gap between deep square leg and deep mid-wicket, who had no chance of stopping that

It was tossed up outside off, Behardien comes down the track and lofts it straight towards long-off, where Raina moves across to his right, gets both hands to it but can't hold on

47.2 - Mishra to Behardien, no run, comes down the track but can't get to the pitch of the ball, can only defend it back to the bowler

A slower ball bumper on the stumps, de Villiers goes for the hook, gets a top-edge and the keeper takes a simple catch. Kohli pats de Villiers on the back as he makes his way back to the dressing room. The crowd too are up on their feet.

46.2 - Bhuvneshwar to de Villiers, SIX, that's a mammoth hit! There was a cracking sound that came off the bat as it made contact with the ball. Full and on the stumps, de Villiers lofts it through the line and it sails way, way over the long-on fence

Is there any stopping this man?

45.5 - Mohit Sharma to de Villiers, 2 runs, The Superman has done it. de Villiers gets to his 23rd ODI ton, his third of the series. The crowd once again starts shouting 'ABD, ABD'.

This was a high full toss outside off, de Villiers chases it and ends up toe-ending it wide of long-off, the batsmen have ample time to come back for the second

44.4 - Mishra to de Villiers, 2 runs, great effort from Rohit at the deep mid-wicket fence. de Villiers kneels across and goes for yet another slog sweep.

34.6 - Bhuvneshwar to du Plessis, no run, short of length delivery on top of off, du Plessis clears his front leg and bunts it towards mid-wicket, thinks about the single but it's not available

34.5 - Bhuvneshwar to du Plessis, no run, bumper outside off, du Plessis drops his wrists and looks at the square leg umpire, the umpire though deems it a legal ball

34.4 - Bhuvneshwar to du Plessis, FOUR, miscued shot gets him a boundary. Short of length delivery outside off, du Plessis hangs back as he goes for the pull, doesn't get it off the middle but gets it in the gap between mid-wicket and mid-on, races away to the fence

34.3 - Bhuvneshwar to du Plessis, no run, du Plessis comes charging down the track and seeing this, Bhuvneshwar bowls a bumper on the stumps. All du Plessis can do is sway away from the line of fire

33.6 - Axar to de Villiers, FOUR, got to vary your pace and de Villiers will not bother if you fire them in. He comes down the track and flicks the flighted delivery over mid-wicket, no one in the deep and that was a safe shot

33.5 - Axar to de Villiers, 2 runs, excellent shot and excellent fielding by the local boy, Rohit Sharma. Flighted delivery outside off stump, de Villiers drives inside-out past the diving extra-cover fielder, Rohit runs to his right in the deep and puts in the dive to save two

Drinks are on the field now. AB de Villiers said at the toss that South Africa needed a solid platform and his players have responded very well. The pitch is absolutely true and shot making has been very easy. Although Faf is tiring, ABdV is fresh at the crease and we all know what he can do if he bats through. From this situation, India will be extremely happy to chase anything under 350 today. We saw Bhuvi bang the ball short in the last game and get three wickets in his final spell. However, it was a slow wicket back in Chennai and he will have to rethink his strategy.

32.6 - Kohli to du Plessis, no run, wow! Excellent yorker, was bowled at just 98.8kph, yet, Faf was hurried. Kohli would want to show the replay of this ball to his bowlers and say, this is how you bowl a toe-crusher. Faf just about managed to dig it out in time, otherwise, the middle pole was coming out of the ground

32.5 - Kohli to du Plessis, FOUR, that is some shot from Faf. So much bottom hand involved. Full and on the stumps, du Plessis plays a whippy flick, hits it hard and it flies over mid-wicket for four

This is a familiar territory for AB de Villiers. The last time he played a game here at the Wankhede, he smashed a wonderful hundred. Playing for BLR, he carted the MUM bowlers to all corners en route to making an unbeaten 133.

AB de Villiers, right handed bat, comes to the crease

26.5 - Raina to de Kock, out Caught by Kohli!! In the air, not timed well and straight to the fielder. As soon as he hit the ball, QdK threw his head back in disappointment. The crowd cheer for the incoming AB de Villiers and QdK gets a hug from the South African captain as he walks back to take some rest. Excellent knock from the opener. Flighted delivery from Raina, de Kock advances and looks to loft, but it gets it very low on the bat, long-off steadies himself under it and reverse-cups the ball. de Kock c Kohli b Raina 109(87) [4s-17 6s-1]

25.6 - Mishra to du Plessis, no run, flighted delivery on the stumps, du Plessis drives it back to the bowler

25.5 - Mishra to du Plessis, 2 runs, dropped, should have been taken. A relatively easy chance by Rahane's standards. Flighted delivery on the stumps, it's too full to sweep, du Plessis doesn't time it well, Rahane dives to his right and tries to go with both hands, but it bursts through. The partnership is worth 150 now

25.4 - Mishra to du Plessis, no run, tossed up right upto the batsman, driven back to the bowler

25.3 - Mishra to du Plessis, FOUR, too short and it's too easy for Faf, who won't miss out on these freebies. Interestingly, this one spun sharply, but Faf has enough time to rock back and pull over the man at mid-wicket

25.2 - Mishra to du Plessis, no run, googly, but not turning much, du Plessis happily blocks off the back foot

23.5 - Mishra to de Kock, FOUR, you might have a leg slip in place but can't bowl down the leg-side, this was the normal leggie from Mishy, which meant it went further past the leg stump, de Kock helps the sweep very fine and Axar Patel was mere spectator at deep backward square leg, no chance for him

23.4 - Mishra to du Plessis, 1 run, that is a great piece of fielding from Dhawan running to his left from long-on. Flighted delivery very full, du Plessis drives straight down the ground past the stumps at the other end, Dhawan dives to his left and flicks it back just inside the rope

23.3 - Mishra to du Plessis, no run, yes, no and they don't go the run. Flatter delivery outside off stump, du Plessis punches it to the right of extra-cover, on seeing the fielder dive, Faf sends back de Kock

22.3 - Mohit Sharma to de Kock, 1 run, 8th ODI hundred for de Kock and he gets a great round of applause from the crowd and the dressing room. He's a delighted man. He punches the air, takes the helmet off and raises his bat. His celebration tells that this hundred means a lot to him. For the fifth consecutive time, QdK has converted a fifty into a hundred against India. What class at such a young age. Coming back to the ball, it was a harmless short of length delivery on the leg stump which was nudged through square leg

22.2 - Mohit Sharma to de Kock, FOUR, slower delivery but it's very full and de Kock drives it along the ground through cover, the man in the deep was very square and he had no chance

22.1 - Mohit Sharma to de Kock, SIX, thank you very much, says de Kock and deposits Mohit Sharma way back over the long leg boundary. He's into the 90s now. Poor line, especially with fine leg inside the ring, can't bowl down the leg-side, the length is too short as well, de Kock just helps it on its way with a pick up shot and the timing was too good

Mohit back over the wicket to de Kock

21.3 - Mishra to de Kock, 1 run, works it with the spin and along the ground through backward square leg

Leg slip in place

21.2 - Mishra to du Plessis, 1 run, now Faf uses his feet and gets to the pitch of this flighted delivery before driving this down the ground to long-on

21.1 - Mishra to du Plessis, no run, well bowled, Faf was looking to come down the track, but Mishra tossed this up nicely around middle and leg stump line, Faf wasn't sure and he just defended from the crease

20.5 - Mohit Sharma to de Kock, 2 runs, in the air and long-off is inside the ring. For a moment the Indians were excited, but de Kock hit that deliberately in the air on seeing the fielder inside the ring. Slower delivery banged short and outside off stump, de Kock looks to flat-bat it for four, slices it over Axar Patel at mid-off

20.4 - Mohit Sharma to du Plessis, 1 run, width on offer outside off stump, du Plessis guides it to deep backward point

20.3 - Mohit Sharma to de Kock, 1 run, short and asking for trouble, de Kock rocks back and pulls well, but straight to the man at deep mid-wicket

19.5 - Mishra to de Kock, no run, once again driven nicely from the middle of the bat, the ball goes straight to mid-off though

19.3 - Mishra to de Kock, no run, flatter in trajectory and de Kock keeps it out from the crease

19.2 - Mishra to de Kock, no run, slower through the air, de Kock goes down on one knee to sweep, but misses and gets hit on the pad

19.1 - Mishra to de Kock, FOUR, good hit, he picked the gap to perfection. Flighted delivery on the leg stump, de Kock leans forward and flicks, sends it over the infield and splits both long-on and deep mid-wicket

This is quite interesting. The innings is just 19 overs old and Harbhajan Singh, India's best bowler so far, has already bowled as many as 7 overs. Plenty of problems for Dhoni. A lot of power-hitters to come. Someone needs to put the hand up and take responsibility from an Indian point of view.

18.3 - Harbhajan to de Kock, FOUR, this is a good ball but it's gone for four. Harbhajan tries the slider, de Kock goes deep in the crease and is late on the cut shot, meets the ball just in front of the off stump and cuts it past the man at short third man

Kohli got across quickly and shies at the striker's end, Dhoni let it go, the ball misses the stumps and rolls away towards third man.

17.1 - Mishra to de Kock, 1 run, the slider from Mishra, de Kock went back on the flick, gets an inside edge and the ball rolls away behind square on the on-side for a run

Drinks are on the field now. It's a flat track and South Africa have cashed in, after winning the toss. Amla looked in sublime touch - until getting carried away. de Kock has passed fifty and if his record against India goes, he has every chance of converting it into a hundred. The spinners have slowed down things a bit, but it's not looking good for the Indians.

This was tossed up invitingly outside off, de Kock was looking to go over the top, doesn't get hold of the shot, a more agile fielder would have caught it, he didn't leap, ends up getting his fingertips and shells the chance
