After some very tight bowling from the Indians, SA finish the day on 11/2. Amla, batting with Elgar OUT! Tahir bowled out by Jadeja! SA are 9/2 That should have been out. His heel didnt look like to be grounded - Zulfiqar Ali Soomro (@zeetweets_) Tahir survives a close stumping call. SA are 8/1 You can't keep your eyes off when is bowling. He is at his best time of his life. - Kush Maheshwari (@kush1724) OUT! Van Zyl edges it to Rahane, he's out for a duck, bowled by Ashwin! SA 4/1 Ashwin on from the other end. Spin opening the bowling as expected - Cricket Updates (@cricketinsiders) Maiden over for Ashwin as well, in the 2nd over. Ishant Sharma starts with a maiden over. The 3rd ball of the over got edged, but didn't carry. GOT HIM! you biscuit! Mishra departs for 3. India are 215 all out. - Cricket South Africa (@OfficialCSA) OUT! That's Test wicket number 50 for Tahir! Ashwin goes for 15. IND 215/9 (78 ovs) - Cricket South Africa (@OfficialCSA) In the air and GOT HIM! Great catch by Duminy to give Harmer the wicket of Saha. IND 201/8 (73 OVS) - Cricket South Africa (@OfficialCSA) Ashwin adding some important runs. Another boundary there. India 8-208. - Cricket Updates (@cricketinsiders) India get to the highest score this Test Series. 204-8. 5 innings have been completed before this. Bowlers dominating for a change. - Aditya (@forwardshortleg) Both Jadeja & Saha did all the hard work but I still feel they have given it away with their untimely dismissals.- TANSEN (@tanny_habib) Saha caught by Duminy! Out for 32 India 195/7 in 71 overs. Saha on 27, Ashwin on 6. Indian spinners might be surprised. South Africa have had time to reconsider their approach. I hope the trio prevails though. - Soulberry (@Slbry) India 178/7 in 66 overs. Saha 20(81), Ashwin 0(4) Not out. Tahir doesn't get Ashwin stumped. He got back safely - Cricket Updates (@cricketinsiders) Rabada gets Jadeja's wicket! Inside edge and bowled! India are 7 down, 173/7 in 64 overs. Dropped? Might not have carried. Saha edges one off Rabada but just short of the keeper - Cricket Updates (@cricketinsiders) India 166/6 in 60 overs. Jadeja 32(44), Saha 15(59) 250 could be a good target on this pitch. Jadeja leading inning in a quite handsome manner. Saha should contribute from other end. - Blue Cap (@IndianzCricket) The best part about Jadeja 2.0 might not be his bowling but his willingness to grind it out as a batsman.Mighty impressive ! - Ahmer Nazir (@iAhmer) Tahir came to bowl only his 3rd over, and got hit for a full-toss 4 by Saha. Every single run on this track is like gold dust and Jadeja is collecting many of them... These run can be the deciding factor... - नाम में क्या रखा है (@Capturing_lives) Rohit Sharma scored Two hundreds in his last Two innings in India before today and in this innings he just scored Two.. - Broken Cricket (@BrokenCricket) Tea break - India 149/6, Jadeja 21(26), Saha 9(47) Jadeja has already hit 3 boundaries, in his 16 off 22. India 143/6 in 53 overs The good thing about Jadeja is - he is not hesitate to punish the bad balls for boundary unlike Saha - Gagan Thakur (@gagan_gt) Jadeja joins Saha in the middle. India need a partnership here. TAKEN! gets another one! Sharma goes for 2, caught by de Villiers. IND 125/6 (46.2 ovs) - Cricket South Africa (@OfficialCSA) On a turning and low pitch, Morkel is extracting bounce, reversing the ball, varying the length. Has 3 out of the 5 wickets. - Shirin Sadikot (@ShirinSadikot) Rohit does a Rahane. Only difference the ball wasn't on the stumps - Suneer (@suneerchowdhary) India 121/5 after 41 overs at drinks. Sharma batting with Saha. Morkel gets another one! Kohli is the victim this time, for 22(55). India 116/5 after 39.2 overs Rahane's home Test woes continue as India are at 115/4. Morne Morkel defying the pitch with some excellent bowling. - worldsportspredict (@WSPLive) Those first eight overs by SA qucks, and a few by Tahir have bloated India's score, who's gonna make the tough runs now - Gaurav Sethi (@BoredCricket) WICKET!
