Here are the Hatke Moments from the India-South Africa match
David Miller's unreal runout
An in-form David Miller was dismissed in a disappointing manner as he was run out in a terrible fashion. A misunderstanding between Miller and Faf du Plessis resulted in the southpaw's dismissal. Both the batsmen were on the same end but the third umpire gave his decision against the left-hander.
