India 77-2 (12 Ovs) vs SA | SCORECARD

Maharaj continues. Kohli drives firmly to mid-off but can't pierce the field. He works the next ball towards midwicket for a single. Gaikwad follows with a sharp quick single. Kohli then jabs one through the covers for another run before Gaikwad breaks the pressure with a crisp boundary. He adds a single to end the over. 

Eight runs from it. After 11 overs, India are 74 for 2.

Jansen charges in again. Gaikwad starts with a push towards cover for no run before picking up a single to deep square leg. Kohli finds the gap toward third man for one more. Gaikwad punches to cover again without reward, but the next delivery takes the edge -- flying over gully. He wanted to punch it on the rise through mid-off, but fortune takes it fine. They take a single. Kohli defends the last ball to close the over. 

Just three runs from it. After 12 overs, India sit at 77 for 2.
