India 209 and 82 for 7 (Ashwin 1*, Philander 3-22, Rabada 2-30) need another 126 runs to beat South Africa 286 and 130 (Shami 3-28, Bumrah 3-39)
Live scorecard and ball-by-ball details (Viewers in the Indian subcontinent can watch highlights of the Test here)
For a half hour or so, the South African pace attack looked… unremarkable. Without Dale Steyn – out of the series with a heel injury – the other three had a difficult task summoning their usual menace. Then came an inswinger. It only decided to be one after travelling three-fourth the distance down the pitch. It fooled Virat Kohli. And it broke India. They went to tea 82 for 7. The 126 runs they still need for victory may as well be a taunt rather than a target.
