Here are the highlights from the Day 2 of India vs South Africa 1st Test from SuperSport Park in Centurion:
There seems to be a delay, probably due to injury. Dean Elgar has copped a blow in his arm. The physio is attending him. Yashasvi Jaiswal also went off the field for a brief period. Must be a toilet break. Technically, SA are six down with no update on Bavuma
I think he has knicked it! The Indian players are confident but the umpire hasn't moved. Verreynne also gave no reaction. The UltraEdge shows it brushed his glove on its way to the keeper. Maiden Test wicket for Prasidh Krishna
Siraj strikes at last! He bowls full from wide of the crease, gets the ball to move back in a bit to sneak through his defense. Hits the his idol Ronaldo's "siuuu".
50 on debut for Bedingham! This has been a fine innings from the youngster. Surprise inclusion in the team, promoted due to Bavuma's injury, He has lived up to the hype. India's lead just 10 runs now
Bedingham is playing like a 100-Test player. Elgar hasn't put a foot wrong. Bumrah has had now support from any of his partners, barring Siraj's first spell. One way traffic. Just over 20 runs to India's total
We are back underway at the SuperSport Park! India hope to make early inroads in the final session. Elgar and Bedingham have put up a strong partnership so far
IND vs SA Live: Poor bowling from Prasidh Krishna!!!
No, that's not the right length! Elgar plays this with soft hands and gets a thick outside edge. Beats the diving gully fielder on his left and races away for four. He moves into the 90s.
This has been a good session for SA so far. They have piled up around 93 runs in 22 overs with only two wickets lost. India need a good third session to get back in the contest. We are still a few overs away from Tea. A wicket or two might give them the momentum
Prasidh Krishna is back into the attack! And Bedingham welcomes him with a six off his second ball. Poor delivery from the debutant. Bedingham wins the battle of debutants this time
Rinku looks hurt! The standing 12th man of the Indian team goes crashing into the advertising boards. He did his absolute best to save the boundary but hurts himself instead. Hope he is alright
The wait is finally over! Bumrah gets the breakthrought as De Zorzi gets a thick edge. Jaiswal at third slip takes the regulation catch without a fuss.
A 79-ball 50 for Elgar. Hasn't put a foot wrong, the former South Africa captain. Shardul is beating batsman but Prasidh hasn't done that and leaking runs as well. SA cruising
This is too easy for Elgar! Poor stuff from the debutant Krishna. Full and straight and he picks up another boundary. Drives it between the stumps and the non-striker. Elgar moves into the 40s
Nothing is going in India's favour at the moment! Easy pickings for Elgar and SA. This one runs past third slip for four. Lunch can be called at any time
Appeal for a caught behind! Kohli saying he did hear something. Ball tracking shows that there no spike when the cherry passes the bat. Hits Markram on thigh guard
Elgar fends off the pressure with a cracking drive down the ground! Good response from the man who is playing his penultimate Test match. Shows the full face of the bat to put that away.
Siraj finds the edge this time! Markram is gone. A similar delivery to the beating the outside edge. It's pitched up, full and swings away late to have Markram nicking as he prods tentatively. Big wicket!
