Day 3 Stumps: India Still In Command!
It's stumps on Day 3 of the ongoing Test between South Africa and India. 18 wickets have fallen today and that is the most at the venue on a single day in Test. Indian score read 16/1 with lead of 146 runs over South Africa.
Marco Jansen to Mayank, OUT!! caught behind! First wicket for South Africa and Jansen is on a hat-trick now as he was the last wicket-taker during India's first innings.
Shami to Bavuma, FOUR!! South Africa vice-captain Temba Bavuma has completed his half-century and he has played brilliantly till now despite no support from the other end.
Three boundaries in this over from Temba Bavuma and South Africa less than 200 now. Bavuma and Mulder have batted with some positive intent but they need to carry it forward.
Its Tea on Day 3, India still have an upper hand but South Africa haven't let it go so easy. The 72-run stand between Quinton de Kock and Temba Bavuma was one of the positive point for the home team.
Siraj to Bavuma, appeal for LBW but umpire has turned it down. India had gone for a review but ball tracking shows that the ball is missing the wickets.
