IND vs SA Live Cricket Score

26.5 OUT! DRAGGED ON! Jasprit Bumrah has answered the skipper's call! Brought back for a 1 over burst before the Tea break, he has managed to break the opening stand. Aiden Markram throws his head back in disappointment. Pitched up with an upright seam, on off. Markram gets on the front foot and looks to firm the drive down the ground with a straight bat. The ball nips back in to catch the inside edge, and it crashes back onto the stumps. Aiden falls for 38 (81). The 82-run opening stand has been broken and that will be TEA on Day 1!  82/1

27.2 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! India strike on either side of the break! Both Proteas openers back in the hut in the space of 4 balls. Tossed up by Kuldeep from over the wicket, full and outside off, Ryan Rickelton goes for the drive but the ball turns away to graze the outside edge. The ball keeps a bit low and it is a healthy deflection but Rishabh Pant does well to stay low, gets his gloves around his left knee and snaffles it. Rickelton departs for 35 (82). South Africa are now 82/2.  82/2

63.1 OUT! EDGED AND GONE! Kuldeep Yadav picks up a wicket on the very first ball of his new spell. A tempting delivery from the chinaman. Pushes across a fuller delivery, just outside off, Tristan Stubbs stretches forward to defend across, but the ball turns slightly away, takes the edge and goes straight to KL Rahul at first slip. He doesn't drop it this time. India have two wickets in this session. The wait continues for the second fifty of the series as Tristan Stubbs goes on 49.  187/4

57.2 OUT! TAKEN! India have a wicket against the run of play! Ravindra Jadeja tosses it up, a bit too full and just outside off. Temba Bavuma bends, tries to get underneath the ball as he tries to launch it over mid off but fails to get the elevation. He cue ends his shot to mid off where Yashasvi Jaiswal dives forward and takes it. Excellent catch from him. India have an opening and a chance to open the floodgates. The 84-run partnership has been broken.  166/3

81.1 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Mohammed Siraj strikes late in the day! Pushed across the left-hander from over the wicket, on a length. Tony de Zorzi has a feel for the delivery away from his body. Pays the price for it as the ball leaves him to catch the outside edge. It goes low towards the keeper, Rishabh Pant, who dives to his left and takes a safe catch. Tony admonishes himself as he trudges off. He falls for 28 (59). South Africa are now 246/6.  246/6

67.2 OUT! TAKEN! Kuldeep Yadav strikes again! He pushes this leg-breaker up front, fuller and around off, entices Wiaan Mulder to take on mid off who is standing a bit behind than usual. Wiaan Mulder hits on the up and finds Yashasvi Jaiswal there. Mulder shakes his head as he takes the long walk back. South Africa lose half of their side.  201/5

138.1 OUT! GONE! Muthusamy falls! End of a marathon innings from him. Ultimately, the short delivery works for India. Bowls it on middle, well-directed and Muthusamy takes it on but gets a top edge. It goes flat and straight to Yashasvi Jaiswal at fine leg. A simple catch and Muthusamy has to go on 109!  431/8

120.3 OUT! STUMPED! Ravindra Jadeja breaks through for India! A rush of blood on the part of Kyle Verreynne. Verreynne charges down the track early and it is spotted by the bowler. Jadeja fires it wide on the off side, full in length. Kyle tries to get his hands closer to the line of the ball but fails to make any contact. Verreynne ends up running past it and Rishabh Pant reaches out to his right. Collects the ball cleanly and breaks the stumps with the batter well short of the crease. The 88-run stand is broken. South Africa are now 334/7.  334/7

151.1 OUT! DRAGGED ON! Marco Jansen is absolutely distraught! Jansen falls 7 runs short of what would have been his maiden Test ton. Googly from Kuldeep, short and turning away from the batter. Marco hangs back and steers it behind square on the off side with an angled bat. Gets an inside edge that crashes back into the stumps. End of a marathon batting effort from South Africa as they finish with 489.  489/10

143.1 OUT! TIMBER! Jasprit Bumrah strikes. Typical Bumrah delivery. He delivers this kind of wicket almost in every match. Bowls on the good length, seam up position and the ball nips in. Simon Harmer is late to get his bat across, lacks foot movement too. Harmer tries to defend but misses as the ball straightens to uproot the off pole.  462/9

32.2 OUT! CAUGHT! Simon Harmer gets the massive wicket of Jaiswal! Harmer drops it short and it is slower through the air, on off. Jaiswal presses on the back foot to punch it away with an angled bat. The ball stops on him and turns away to catch the leading edge. It balloons towards backward point, where Marco Jansen dives in front and scoops it inches off the turf. Jaiswal has a long look at the pitch as he looks stunned and departs for 58 (97). India are 95/2, trailing by 394 runs.  95/2

21.3 OUT! EDGED AND TAKEN! Finally, the resistance is broken by Maharaj. Keshav drops it full and gets a bit of drift into the batter, well under 80 kph. It lands and then sharply spins away from the right-hander with some bounce. KL Rahul is drawn forward and pushes at the delivery, goes with hard hands and gets a thick outside edge. The ball goes to the right of the first slip fielder, where Aiden Markram gets low and gathers a fine catch in his safe hands. KL Rahul is disappointed as he walks back for 22 (63). India are 65/1, trailing by 424 runs.  65/1

34.3 OUT! CAUGHT! Not the best of balls by Simon Harmer, but he will take it! A real drag down by Harmer from around the wicket, outside off, Sudharsan goes deep in the crease and hammers the pull but fails to keep it along the ground. It goes at chest height to mid-wicket, where Ryan Rickelton gets both hands to his left to take the catch. The ball pops out of his grasp as he falls on the ground, but he manages to cling onto it close to his chest, not allowing the ball to drop on the turf. Sai is distraught as he trudges off. He falls for 15 (40). Harmer has his 2nd wicket. India are 96/3, trailing by 393 runs.  96/3

35.3 OUT! IN THE AIR AND GONE! An uninspiring shot, and Dhruv Jurel pays the price. The session gets even better for South Africa. Jansen bangs it in short at shoulder height and pushes it across the right-hander from over the wicket. Jurel gets his hands high and looks to drag the pull away with a horizontal bat, but he fails to get on top of the bounce. Ends up spooning it over mid on, where Keshav Maharaj, despite the sun in his sight, runs over his right shoulder and slides to take a safe catch. Jurel departs without troubling the scorers. India are now four down with a deficit of 387.  102/4

37.2 OUT! EDGED AND GONE! Now, one might ask for sure. Was that really needed right now? We always talk about how Pant loves to go aggressive against any bowler, but it's so important to control your aggression as well when your side is under the pump already. A needless throw of a precious wicket by the Indian captain. On a good length, in line of the off stump. Rishabh Pant shimmies down the track and stays leg side of the ball. Swings for the hills as he looks to launch it back over the bowler's head. The ball appears to have grazed the outside edge, and it goes behind where the keeper, Kyle Verreynne, does the rest. UltraEdge comes up with a spike and Pant takes a review with him. From 95/1, India have slipped to 105/5.  105/5

43.3 OUT! CAUGHT! Another Indian batter falls to the short ball! Jansen bangs it into the surface, over off. Ravindra Jadeja gets into a tangle and hurriedly takes his eyes off the ball. It flies off the right shoulder, where Aiden Markram takes the catch at second slip. Not given by the umpire and South Africa have reviewed it. Well, well, the front-on replay shows that the ball has deflected off the right shoulder onto the back of the bat and then went towards the slip cordon. The UltraEdge confirms the involvement of the bat. Another Indian batter that departs in single digits. Ravindra Jadeja goes for 6 (18) and India are 122/7, still 168 runs adrift to avoid the follow-on.  122/7

41.4 OUT! CAUGHT! A spectacular grab from Aiden Markram! The short ball does the trick for Marco Jansen. Jansen bends his back and digs it in short at the bodyline of the batter. Nitish Kumar Reddy hops and gets his hands high but the ball keeps rising and he fails to get on top of it. The ball lobs off his gloves but there is no gully in place. No problem, says Aiden Markram as from second slip, he flings himself to his right and pulls off a one-handed stunner, while being airborne and parallel to the ground. Third wicket for Jansen and India are on the mat.  119/6

78.1 OUT! EDGED AND TAKEN! Simon Harmer breaks the 72-run partnership for the eighth wicket and his joy knows no bounds. It is that in-dipper that drops on an in-between length and spins away from the batter. Washington Sundar is caught in two minds, whether to play on the front foot or commit on the back foot. Ends up just poking tamely at it. The ball bounces and takes the outside edge. It goes at thigh height to the right of the first slip and Aiden Markram is not dropping those. Washington Sundar perishes on 48 off 92 balls. India are 194/8, trailing by 295 runs. The hosts need 96 runs more to avoid the follow-on.  194/8

81.5 OUT! EDGED AND GONE! 5-fer for Marco Jansen and how good Aiden Markram has been in that slip cordon? Fifth catch for him in this innings. Marco slams the deck hard, and keeps the line of attack just outside off. It leaves the batter with extra bounce. Kuldeep gets on the back foot to work it away, but plays away from his body and the ball shoots flat and low to second slip. Aiden Markram like a magnet, attracts the ball towards him once again. Kuldeep Yadav's resistance comes to an end after 134 balls. He departs on 19 runs. India are 194/9.  194/9

83.5 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Jasprit Bumrah eventually falls to the short ball! Jansen bends his back and digs it in short, under the left armpit. Bumrah swivels for the pull but the ball gets big on him. The ball raps him on the gloves and balloons behind, where the keeper, Kyle Verreynne, does the rest by settling underneath it. Jansen finishes with 6 wickets. India have been bowled out for 201, falling 288 runs short of South Africa's 489.  201/10

18.3 OUT! TAKEN! Ryan Rickelton miscues it completely. Poor shot from Ryan and he has to go. Ravindra Jadeja bowls it on a length and around off, Ryan Rickelton dances down the track and plays all over it, trying to go inside out over cover. He hurries into his shot and slices it to cover, where Mohammed Siraj leaps and holds onto the catch with both hands stretched over his head. India have an opening against the run of play. Ryan Rickelton departs on 35 off 64 balls and South Africa are 59/1, leading by 347 runs.  59/1

28.1 OUT! OUTFOXED! Jadeja has fished out both the South African openers in this spell. He bowls an in-dipper on a fuller length, and gets a good bit of in-drift and purchase off the deck by bowling in front of the stumps. Aiden Markram is drawn forward and tries to defend it forward, but the ball lands and spins across his bat's face to beat the outside edge and then makes an absolute mess of the stumps behind. Aiden Markram departs on 29 (84) and from 59/0, South Africa are 74/2, with a lead of 362 runs.  74/2

78.3 OUT! CLEANED HIM UP! Tristan Stubbs is gutted. He ends on 94. Ravindra Jadeja tosses it up and attacks the stumps with a straighter line. Tristan Stubbs looks to slog-sweep again but misses and it crashes into the stumps behind. With the wicket comes the declaration. India need 549 runs to win.  260/5

31.3 OUT! CAUGHT! Sundar finally gets the reward for his controlled bowling. Good length off break, angled at the pads with turn and bounce. Bavuma comes forward to flick it away, but it is not an ideal length to play that shot.  The ball catches his glove and deflects behind. It beats Pant's dive to the left but Reddy, alert at leg slip with hands perfectly placed, snaps up the simple opportunity. Temba Bavuma departs for 3 (11) and from 59/0, South Africa are 77/3.  77/3

58.1 OUT! LBW! Yes, that is right in front. Oh, Tony de Zorzi has reviewed it straightaway. Was there some bat? Tossed up, on a length and just around off, the ball straightens off the deck. Tony de Zorzi plants his front foot just across the line, trying to sweep but misses and gets hit on the pads. Onto the review - UltraEdge shows no bat. Ball Tracking shows THREE REDS. Tony de Zorzi goes on 49. The 101-run stand is broken as Ravindra Jadeja picks up his third wicket. Tony de Zorzi departs on 49 off 68 balls. South Africa are 178/4, leading by 466 runs.  178/4

6.1 OUT! EDGED AND TAKEN! And once again in the series, Jansen fishes out Jaiswal. For the third time, in four innings. Jansen keeps it on a good length, with a gentle away shape, outside off. Yashasvi Jaiswal gets on the back foot and tries to cut it square on the off side. But he only manages to nick it behind to Kyle Verreynne, who gets low to his left and gathers it safely. Yashasvi Jaiswal looks at the heavens in disappointment and walks back after scoring 13 (20). India are 17/1.  17/1

9.2 OUT! CLEANED HIM UP! Harmer with an immediate impact off a peach of a delivery. Floats up a fuller-length delivery, pitching it well outside the off stump line. The ball dips and lands right on the rough and prodigiously spins into the batter. KL Rahul gets sucked into it on the front foot and tries to play it through the off side, but plays all over it and gets beaten all ends up on the inside edge. The ball goes on to disturb the furniture behind. KL Rahul perishes on 6 (29) and India are 21/2.  21/2

47.5 OUT! EDGED AND GONE! Senuran Muthusamy strikes in his first over and ends Sai Sudharsan's defensive blockathon. While defending for a long time, there is always a scare of one odd ball having your name and this one from Muthsamy had it. A full ball, just around the off stump. The ball lands and this one doesn't spin at all. Sai Sudharsan is drawn forward to smother the spin. The ball goes off the outside edge towards first slip, where none other than Aiden Markram gets low and takes a fine catch. A record 8th catch for him in this Test match. Sai Sudharsan departs on 14 off 139 balls and India are 95/6. South Africa need 4 wickets to win now.  95/6

23.3 OUT! BOWLED'EM! Simon Harmer gets his man this time and does not need anyone's help. Aiden Markram will be a relieved man as his dropped chance does not cost much. This is the arm ball, full and on off, skids through and goes with arm. Kuldeep Yadav gets stuck in his crease and tries to play it but leaves a massive gap between bat and pad. The ball goes through and crashes into the middle stump. Kuldeep's resistance has been broken early in this innings as he walks back for 5 off 38. India are 40/3!  40/3

24 OUT! EDGED AND GONE! Simon Harmer with the double strike and India slip further down here. This is tossed up, full and on off, does not spin and goes straight. Dhruv Jurel strides out and plays for the turn in, but only manages to get a thin outside edge. The ball carries towards first slip, where Aiden Markram, this time, gets down well and takes a sharp catch to his front. It almost slipped out, but he managed to hold onto it with one hand in the end. Jurel departs for 2 off 3, and from 40/2, India are four down now on 42.  42/4

31.2 OUT! EDGED AND GONE! Harmer does the trick once again and gets his fourth wicket. A lovely release off the hand, nicely tossed up on a fuller length, just around off. It lands and spins sharply with a good bit of bounce. Rishabh Pant is sucked into the defensive shot and leans forward. Only gets a thick outside edge off the shoulder of the bat. The ball pops up in front of Markram at the first slip and the way he has been a live wire in that position, takes a fine catch moving forward. His 7th of this Test match. India have lost half their side down now and disappointment continues for Pant with the bat.  58/5

63.1 OUT! STUMPED! Keshav Maharaj joins the party finally. He tosses it up, full and around off, turns in sharply. Ravindra Jadeja skips down the track to slog it across the line but gets nowhere near the pitch of the ball. He gets beaten on the flight and misses as it goes behind, where Kyle Verreynne collects it and breaks the stumps. The third umpire is called in and the replay shows that Jadeja is well short of his crease. He departs for a gritty 54 off 87, and India are nine down now. South Africa can see the finishing line now.  140/9

60.4 OUT! OFF THE EDGE AND TAKEN! A sensational take from Aiden Markram as this is his 9th catch of this Test. With this, Markram now has the record of taking the most number of catches in a Test match by any non wicket-keeper. Simply outstanding stuff from him. Simon Harmer gets maiden five-wicket haul in India and breaks the 35-run alliance for the seventh wicket. Harmer lands it on a good length, and gets sharp turn and bounce from the deck. Washington Sundar gets in a bit of a tangle. He is neither on the front foot nor committed on the back foot, and ends up poking tamely at it away from his body. Outside edges and it goes real quick to the right of the first slip fielder. Despite very little time frame to react, Aiden Markram shows excellent reflexes and takes a fine catch to his right. Washington Sundar departs on 16 (44) and India are 130/7. South Africa now need just 3 wickets to execute a clean sweep.  130/7

62.1 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Simon Harmer gets his sixth wicket now, and the writing is on the wall for India. Tossed up, full and around off, turns in a bit and sticks to the surface a bit as well. Nitish Kumar Reddy goes down on one knee to play the reverse sweep but goes through the shot way early. The ball spins and lobs up off the gloves, and the keeper, Kyle Verreynne, moves forward to take a dolly. Reddy walks back for a duck and India are 138/8 now. South Africa just 2 wickets away from the win now.  138/8

63.5 OUT! TAKEN! My word, that is an unbelievable catch from Marco Jansen, and if that does not sum up this series for South Africa, then nothing else can. Keshav Maharaj loops it up, full and on middle, Mohammed Siraj gets his front leg out of the way, and lofts it nicely over the bowler's head. It goes miles in the air, but Jansen from mid on runs backwards and keeps his eyes on the ball. He stretches out his left hand and grabs a stunner tumbling onto the ground. Siraj cannot believe it, nor can Temba Bavuma. All the Proteas players run towards Jansen, and the celebration begins for them. SOUTH AFRICA WIN BY 408 RUNS AND TAKE THE SERIES 2-0.  140/10
