9.2 OUT! EDGED AND GONE AGAIN! Mohammed Siraj has three now! India are well and truly on top here in Cape Town. It's a bit unlucky for Tony de Zorzi but the visitors won't mind one bit. Siraj serves this one full and around middle and leg, shaping in a bit, Tony de Zorzi stays in his crease and tries to glance it away but only manages to get a thin edge behind where KL Rahul anticipates it well and moves to his right when the ball is released off the bat and pouches it safely in the end.

South Africa are in more trouble now!  11/3

He once again lands this one on a good length and in the corridor of uncertainty, this one lands and nips away a shy bit which is enough to catch the outside edge of Marco Jansen who tries to block it from his crease, KL Rahul behind the stumps makes no mistake. South Africa six down and in huge trouble!  34/6

20 OUT! TAKEN! Another one bites the dust! Mukesh Kumar gets a wicket now! He sets up the batter nicely here sticking to his fuller lengths on the previous couple of deliveries. This time he bangs in a quick and sharp short delivery, on middle, Keshav Maharaj is not expecting that but still goes for the pull shot. However, the ball gets big on him and he fails to transfer his weight on the back foot and miscues it off the upper half of the bat towards mid-wicket.

South Africa nine down now!  55/9

This is back of a length and on middle, Yashasvi Jaiswal hops up to try and fend it down with an angled bat but only manages to get a bottom edge back onto the stumps. Rohit Sharma, at the other end, seems very disappointed. India lose an early wicket!  17/1

14.2 OUT! TAKEN! Nandre Burger roars in delight as he gets rid of the dangerous-looking Rohit Sharma! Indian skipper walks back in disappointment! Burger bowls it on a hard length, on off, the ball rises off the deck and Rohit Sharma fails to counter the steep bounce. Gets this one off the shoulder of the bat and lobs low towards gully.

The third umpire wants to check if that is clean or not. The replays show that it is a fair catch and Kohli, who was asked to wait near the boundary line, can go and take a shower.  153/8

22.2 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Nandre Burger strikes yet again and screams in joy! South Africa are fighting back! Burger continues from over the wicket and pulls his length back ever so slightly, landing it around middle and off, Shreyas Iyer stays back in his crease and makes the mistake of fiddling at the delivery. He gets a faint edge on it as the ball nips away slightly and Kyle Verreynne, behind the stumps, makes absolutely no mistake. Shreyas Iyer departs for a duck and India lose their fourth wicket! This place is buzzing and what a Test match it's turning out to be already. The lead for India is 55 runs.  110/4

This one is on a hard length and around middle, angling away with some steep bounce again, Ravindra Jadeja stays back and looks to work it across the line but closes the face of his bat a bit too early and fails to ride the bounce. The ball loops off the gloves in front of gully where once again the tall Marco Jansen dives forward to take another brilliant catch. India have lost the plot completely here!  153/6

33.5 OUT! TAKEN! THREE IN THE OVER! This is something extraordinary happening at Cape Town. It is the same combination once again for South Africa. Lungi Ngidi lands this one on a hard length again and around off, angles in with extra bounce once more. Jasprit Bumrah stays back to fend at it but it takes the shoulder of the bat and loops towards gully where Marco Jansen this time leaps and pouches it safely. Lungi Ngidi, who started looking like the weak link in this South African bowling attack, has suddenly woken up from his slumber and his triple strike has given South Africa a semblance of chance. Mind you, India still have a very handy 98-run lead.  153/7

34.4 OUT! RUN OUT! Utter chaos! This dismissal just about sums up what has happened in the last couple of overs! Rabada serves it on a length, on off, Prasidh Krishna looks to drive it through the off side but does not move his feet much. Mishits the shot towards mid on and Mohammed Siraj sets off for the single. Nandre Burger, at straightish short mid-wicket, moves across to his left and picks it up cleanly. Siraj is halfway through his run and it is too late for him to return. Burger runs towards the stumps and as he sees Siraj turning back towards the bowling end, he releases an underarm throw and hits the stumps at that end to catch the Indian pacer well short of his crease. There was never a run and it was a brain-fade moment for Mohammed Siraj. India's lead remains where it was at the fall of the 5th wicket.  153/9

31.4 OUT! IN THE AIR...AND TAKEN THIS TIME! Mohammed Siraj gets the massive wicket for India and the visitors take a huge sigh of relief here. Siraj hits the hard length this time and around off, Aiden Markram backs away to go for the pull but the ball gets big on him and he miscues it miles up in the air towards mid off where the Indian skipper, Rohit Sharma runs forward and settles under it to take a very important catch. He bangs the ball on the ground to vent his frustration. Lead is 64 as South Africa's last hope fades away. Nandre Burger is next to join Rabada.  162/8

10.2 OUT! EDGED AND GONE! Mukesh Kumar breaks through for India! Bowls it from around the wicket and from wide of the crease, angles it into the left-hander, on a good length, outside off, Dean Elgar pokes at the delivery away from his body and pays the price.

Elgar raises his bat and acknowledges the support from the crowd on his way back to the dressing room.  37/1

12.1 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Mukesh Kumar strikes yet again for India! South Africa lose another and it is Tony de Zorzi who departs cheaply in the second innings as well. Kumar persists with the around the wicket angle for the left-hander and slants this one back in on the off-stump line, on a good length, Tony de Zorzi is forced to play at it due to the angle and the line of the delivery. He presents a straight bat to see this one out. The ball nips away ever so slightly to catch the outside edge. The ball is dipping in front but KL Rahul does well to get down low and gets his gloves under the ball to complete the catch.  41/2
