Ashwin opening the bowling ffs.

I hate it when spin opens a Test Match innings.

Yep same.

His action isn't the best looking but Bumrah actually bowls at a decent pace and his test match record is decent. He is on fire early with 2/5 trapping Markham and Amla in front, SA off to a bad start at 2/8.

Not so bad in second innings. Strange pitch....tailor made for Ashwin. Why would the South Africans do that?

[Brodlach]

That innings by De Kock was the strangest innings I have ever seen

[Grenville]

Just about the worst 12 you'll ever see.

[Brodlach]

Not sure what he was trying to accomplish

[Grenville]

This is a ripper of a spell by Shami.

[Grenville]

Not sure what he was trying to accomplish

He just wasn't switched on for whatever reason, never looked like it.

[The Dark Knight]

South Africa with a lead of 213, currently 5/185. du Plessis 15 no and Philander 12 no

[mighty_tiger_79]

Going to need to really get some runs for the tail

[The Dark Knight]

The South African cameraman sure have a good eye for quality women.

Anyway, India review and LBW decision where the ball hits the middle of Faf's bat! Terrible review!

I’m staggered Ishant Sharma still gets a gig. His record wouldn’t stand up in a stiff breeze. He is the Benjamin Button of cricket ; he has gone continuously backwards since his debut.

There are better bowlers currently representing India in the U/19 World Cup.

Yep, test bowling average of 36.55 is very, very poor for a strike bowler.

I can't find if he's injured or not but Umesh Yadav, who is in the Indian squad should surely be picked in front of Sharma.

Isn't it great to see a contest between bat and ball instead of it being a one way street.

Going to take some serious batting from India to win this one however particularly seeing Captain Me is back in the sheds

Yep, so much better to watch.

Resuming day 5 at 3/35 and still trailing by 251 you'd think it'll be a bridge too far for them.

All up to Pujara get him early and its almost all over.
