A drama unfolded in the ongoing third and final ODI as India's Tilak Varma warned South Africa's Matthew Breetzke not to Mankad in Vishakhapatnam. It happened after the 23.2 over, when Tilak bowled a slow, leg-line delivery. Breetzke drove it well to long-on and managed to take a single.
As Tilak began his run-up for the next delivery, Breetzke had already stepped out of his crease, prompting the Indian off-spinner to stop mid-stride.
