India vs South Africa, 2nd Test: South Africa 36/3 at stumps on Day 2, India 601/5d

R Ashwin to Muthusamy, Shorter around off, Muthusamy dabs it down to third man for one.

R Ashwin to Plessis, Comical! On the pads, du Plessis turns it behind the square on the leg side. Muthusamy is adamant for a run and keeps on going even though Faf does not want the run. Du Plessis surrenders as Muthusamy is more than halfway down the track. He is baffled by Senuran's determination for the run.

R Ashwin to S Muthusamy, FOUR OVERTHROWS! Flighted on off, Senuran pushes it towards cover and goes for a quick single. Pujara gets to the ball quickly and has a shy at the bowler's end. It is not a bad throw but bounces just in front of Ashwin. He misses it. Umesh Yadav backing up gets a bad bounce and it goes past him for a boundary.

R Ashwin to Muthusamy, Beauty! Quicker one juts outside off, Muthusamy looks to defend but the ball misses the outside edge by just a whisker.

R Jadeja to Plessis, Flighted around the stumps, Faf defends it to get through the over.

Senuran Muthusamy walks out to the middle. He showed great fight in the previous game and missed out on his fifty in the last innings of the last game. Can he hang around once again?

R Ashwin to de Kock, OUT! TIMBER! What a beauty by Ravichandran Ashwin! De Kock cannot believe he has been bowled and is still having a look at the stumps. Ashwin bowls a flatter delivery on middle and off, the ball pitches and spins away a touch. De Kock is in his crease looking to defend it off his back foot but the ball goes past his outside edge. It just about clips the bails of the off pole and the ball is gathered by Saha behind the stumps. De Kock is confused about what happened. His skipper asks him from the other end whether he nicked it to which de Kock denies. De Kock then asks one of the Indian players and he replies that de Kock has been bowled. He looks at the giant screen and then starts walking back to the pavilion. South Africa 6 down now and du Plessis looks like the lone warrior now.

R Ashwin to de Kock, FOUR! Full and floated on middle, de Kock drives this one through mid on for another boundary. A flurry of boundaries in the past few overs.

R Ashwin to Kock, The batsman has defended it by getting right behind the line of the delivery.

R Ashwin to Kock, On the pads, de Kock flicks it towards square leg.

R Jadeja to Plessis, Du Plessis defends this one off the back foot.
