37.1 : India:87/7

37.1: L Ngidi to Ashwin, OUT! Ashwin is walking back now! This is all happening too quickly! Ngidi bowls it on a drivable length outside off, it shapes away a touch. Ashwin without any foot movement goes after it as he tries to force it through the off side. The ball takes the edge and goes to de Kock who does not drop many. Excellent bowling by Ngidi. This is what pace can do, it freezes the batsmen's legs. Lungi gets his fourth. South Africa are now just three wickets away.

35.6 : India:83/6

35.6: L Ngidi to Ashwin, NOT OUT! A review gone for the Proteas. Ngidi bangs it in short, Ashwin sways away from the line. The ball seems to have gone straight into the keeper's gloves but the South Africans go up in appeal. The umpire shakes his head. The hosts confer and think about the review and eventually take it. Nothing on the Snicko when the ball is close to the bat. The only spike is seen when the bat is brushing the pad. Perhaps that is what Markram seemed to indicate in that mini-conference. Ash bats on.

35.3 : India:83/6

35.3: L Ngidi to Pandya, OUT! Hardik Pandya - threw his wicket away in the first innings, does the same yet again. What is the situation of the game? How good or bad is the position of his side? These are somethings that should have been going on in his mind but sadly, these lie just in words at the moment. Ngidi banged it short but it was well wide. Pandya should have left it alone but no, he doesn't. Looks to go for the upper cut and only manages a cue end. The ball was going over slips but de Kock leaps high to his right and pouches it nicely. Another one falls for India, South Africa just 4 wickets away now.
