  IND vs SA, 4th T20I LIVE Score: India 16/0 in 2 overs

  Samson smashes a premeditated pull over deep mid-wicket for a massive SIX! Coetzee keeps bowling short, but Samson finally gets beaten. Coetzee is sticking to his short ball tactic from the last match, but it's not working out for him. This time, he goes fuller and wide down the leg side. Samson takes advantage of a full, wide delivery outside off and plays a late cut through the point region for a boundary, FOUR!

  IND vs SA, 4th T20I LIVE Score: India 4/0 in 1 over

  The ball was pitched straight and angled away from the batter, taking an outside edge off Samson and narrowly missing Hendricks at slips. Samson managed to survive and get off the mark with a single. Another opportunity slipped through our fingers! This time it was Hendricks again. Jansen bowled wide outside off and full, Abhishek attempted to drive through covers but ended up edging it. The ball headed towards Hendricks at an awkward height, but he couldn't hold on to the chance.

  IND vs SA, 4th T20I LIVE Score: India opt to bat

  Suryakumar Yadav: We are going to bat first. We have been doing that well in the last 2-3 games and we want to stick to that. The plan has been clear from the first game. Putting runs on the board and defending is something we have been wanting to do. It is a quick turnaround, one day gap between the games but the boys are professionals. Same team.

  Aiden Markram: We weren't sure. Probably leaning towards batting. We haven't put hundred percent in all three departments. We are edging towards it. We can't win the series but we pulled one back after being 1-0 down, so we can take confidence from that and try to level the series. We are going with the same team.
