The South African bowlers were right on the money in the 2nd session but were put through some bashing in the last one as Rahane was at his attacking best along with Jadeja. Piedt and Abbott have been the wreckers-in-chief and have bowled extremely well. Amla will be distraught as he’s dropped a couple of catches, the second one being the important one of Rahane.
A great fightback by India in the last session as Rahane and Jadeja stitched a well guided partnership. A 59-run stand between the pair put India in a commanding position just before Jadeja threw away his wicket. Ashwin who came in to replace Jadeja is looking in fine touch and is cemented at the crease along with Rahane who’s gotten the highest individual score in an innings in the series so far.
The light isn’t good enough and the umpires feel the conditions are getting tough for the batsmen. Hence, they’ve called Stumps on Day 1. #India 231 /7,
India vs South Africa Delhi Test: Bad light forces early stumps, hosts #INDvsSA 231/7
#Delhi : #FirozShah #Kotla : Overall it’s been a great day of cricket as there have been decent performances in all departments and it is turning out to be a good contest. South Africa will be looking to clean up the Indian tail soon. India will be happy if they manage to put 40 odd runs on board in the morning tomorrow. We hope to have an action packed day of cricket coming our way, to witness all of it.
