I will leave you here. Need to run to press conference. Catch you tomorrow at the next match ... early in the AM. Gokul. Follow us on twitter and FaceBook as well.

Hamid Hassan would want to avoid the ignominy of being at the crease while his team loses ... that too after scoring the least any team has in a T20I. Ooooh ... he just strikes a brilliant 6 right over Morekel (the Ablie version)'s head. Sweet shot. Hit out or get out! Afghanistan: 40/8 in 9 ov.

A great pitch ... will be superb to watch a Test match played here. We have seen spinners from Bangladesh trouble batsmen, then the extreme pace of the Proteas as well as the fastish bowling of the Afghans keep batsmen in check. Now, Roelof van der Merwe also getting some prodigious turn. This is a great...

Morne More-kill! 4 wickets. Smith ... goes for the jugular. Only 2 fielders outside the circle still ... both behind the keeper, considering the bowler's length and the pitch's mood. Afghanistan: 29/7 in 7.2 ov. A free hit wasted.

Azghar Stanikzai perishes to a slightly slower short ball. Just manages to lob it up to square leg. Waits for Ian Gould to signal a No Ball, but doesn't even get a nod of acknowledgment from him. Charl Langeveldt, by the way, has a strange run up. He first runs away from the line of the stumps and...

India will play Australia on this ground at the Kensington OVal. In my jaunt downstairs, I met an experienced local photographer, Errol Nurse. Him and a local police officer agreed that this pitch is now "slowly returning to the ol' Kensington". Afghanistan: 24/6 in 6.2 ov ... Charl Langeveldt...

This pitch is a fascinating one. Had gone down to snap a couple ground-level shots of the action. The media box glass window had reflections and smudges preventing a good shot. By the time I went down and came back up, here we are: Afghanistan: 16/6 in 5.4 ov. Needless to say, COW thinks South Africa...

South Africa have posted a target of 140 for the Afghans. Who would have thought the Afghans might trouble the Africans this way. The lights are taking effect here at Kensington Oval, in the meanwhile. The Afghans struggled against Nehra's shorter ones. South Africa must be able to exploit that amply...

Zadran comes back to finish in style ... or so the Afghans will hope. And he is almost there ... a good ball forces a top-edge from Morkel, whose 20+ was a big impetus to his team, but is it enough? Should be. Skipper Mangal takes another beauty ... this time with a little fumble. South Africa: 138/7...

A great 19th over from Hammid Hassan. One of those balls was almost 90mph. Finishes with excellent spell of 3-0-21-3! South Africa: 135/6 in 19 ov. 150 looks a bit of a stretch from here. COW is nodding in favor of Afghanistan still.
