Ashwin to Elgar, FOUR and South Africa have won the Test match by seven wickets. It was the South Africa captain who was absolutely brilliant with the bat in the chase of 240.
Shami to van der Dussen, OUT!! caught by Pujara in the slips. South Africa have lost their thrid wicket now but they still have an upper hand in the chase.
Ashwin to Elgar, FOUR to midwicket, Fifty up for South Africa captain!! A deserving 50 for Elgar!! South Africa are still ahead in the game and that is only because of Elgar.
Brilliant first ball, van der Dussen was completely beaten. Bumrah has done the job quite well so many times for Team India in the past at the same situation, can he do it today?
