Pune (Maharashtra): South Africa managed to score 275 runs in their first innings on day three of the second Test match before India bundled out the visitors at the Maharashtra Cricket Association (MCA) Stadium here on Saturday.
India are still on 326 runs ahead of the Proteas and will start their second innings on Sunday.
South Africa resumed their first innings from 36/3 on day three with Anrich Nortje and Theunis de Bruyn on the field. However, India did not take much time to get their first breakthrough of the day as Mohammad Shami got hold of Nortje (3) in the third over of the day.
Skipper Faf du Plessis then came out to bat could not form a partnership with Bruyn as the latter was caught behind off Umesh Yadav’s delivery. Bruyn’s dismissal brought Quinton de Kock out on the field.
Both Du Plessis and De Kock played cautiously, avoiding any risky shot. The duo provided the Proteas with some momentum as they added 75 runs on the board.
Du Plessis completed his half-century but soon after that, the partnership was broken as De Kock (31) was bowled by Ashwin. Senuran Muthusamy then took the field but failed to leave a mark as he only managed to score seven runs before Ravindra Jadeja took his wicket.
