Shikhar Dhawan got into a sort of a verbal spat with substitute fielder KL Rahul. Apparently there was some mis-communication of sorts between the two. Dhawan was however, seen apologising for his outburst.

Morne Morkel brought back for another spell ended Shikhar Dhawan's fight in the middle. The India opener was undone by a excellent yorker, which crashed onto Dhawan's leg stump. Dhawan was on his way back to the pavillion for 21.

Imran Tahir got into the action as he castled Cheteshwar Pujara for 28. The Indian batsman mis-read a quicker one from South African legspinner to leave the hosts in a precarious position.

Imran Tahir had a golden opportunity to remove Virat Kohli when he was on five. The umpire Bruce Oxenford had even given the decision in legspinners favour. However, Oxenford wanted to be sure about the no-ball and asked for a review. The replays indicated that the bowler had over-stepped thereby saving Kohli.
