The Indians had very much a field day after South Africa had scored 128/1 in the first session. It was an incredible comeback by India after they were down and out. A very good spell from Jasprit Bumrah and Zaheer Khan really crushed the hopes of South Africa to get a good score. The Proteas would somehow want to add more runs to their total while India would hope to get that last wicket as soon as possible. Thanks for joining us for a grueling day of Cricket!!

We started well, but lost the plot. Expected more from our middle order. However, if the Indian pacers are doing so great, one can only imagine what Pollock, Steyn and Donald are gonna do on this pitch.

What a comeback after a 92 run opening stand, the new ball didnt play any part but when the ball lost one side of its shine, I think the reserve swing came into the picture.[DOUBLEPOST=1599724685][/DOUBLEPOST]

More about the Indians finding the right line and length after struggling a bit. South Africa faced it tough to bat against the second new ball.

After bowling out South Africa for 274, India seemed to have taken control of the game. But after losing Sehwag, Gambhir just threw away his wicket while Dravid's defence came under question as he got out lbw to Keshav Maharaj. Although, Sachin and Kohli looked good at the crease until a beauty from Steyn got Tendulkar out lbw. Ganguly looked clueless against Allan Donald's express pace and got out bowled to him. Kohli was the best batsman for India in their innings who scored 54 but he followed that by a lapse in concentration to get out caught and bowled to Kallis. Dhoni and Ashwin showed a lot of courage a stitched together a 50-run partnership but Steyn managed to dismiss Dhoni on 42. The match is now evenly poised, runs are crucial now for India as they look to reduce that lead of South Africa. Ashwin looks good for a fifty. Let's find out who gains control of this match on Day 3.
