Temba Bavuma blazed off the mark with a couple of scintillating drives through the off-side, but Australia were quick to retaliate in the T20 World Cup clash against South Africa. Wickets came thick and fast, with the scoreboard reading a 23/3 inside the PowerPlay. Aiden Markram spared the Proteas a few blushes by compiling a gritty 40 before he holed out to Glenn Maxwell in the deep. Markram’s rearguard effort comprised of three boundaries and a six as South Africa tried to claw their way back into the contest.
Markram’s fighting knock of 40 comes to an end!
