Drinks Break! If you have just woken up and thought India would continue to dominate then you were absolutely spot on. The hosts have picked two wickets in the first hour of play. Both wickets falling to the two bowlers who got into the wickets column yesterday. South Africa have du Plessis and de Kock out in the middle. The last recognized batsmen. This pair had to play a big knock if South Africa were to survive and that scenario still holds true.
