Ryan Rickelton | Player of the Match: When Tristan came and joined me, we were in a bit of bother and we wanted to take time and we always knew we would be able to catch and it was nice to have that partnership. The tail wagged nicely for us and credit has to go to them because those runs are really valuable.
Lizaad Williams: We did a lot of analysis. We had a box as a target and tried to land most of our balls there. I don't get a lot of bounce, the wobble seam is more effective for me. There was a bit of wind and it did give me a bit of boost.
Ireland had the opportunity earlier with the ball to restrict South Africa to a low score after reducing them to 39/3. However, Ryan Rickelton and Tristan Stubbs poured cold water on their plans with a 152-run stand for the fourth wicket. Stubbs was dropped early in his innings and it proved costly as he went on to lead the recovery along with the left-handed opener who carried on his good form from the T20Is. He's also the Player of the Match, let's listen in.
22:16 Local Time, 18:16 GMT, 23:46 IST: The South African bowlers, led by Lizaad WIlliams, have made short work of Ireland, bundling them out for just 132.
