Virat Kohli and his men looking to score more than 300. But anything more than 250 if India scores at Cape Town then it will be tough for South Africa. However, all depends upon how Dean Elgar uses his bowlers in the second session today. And how he will bat in the second or fourth innings of the series decider Test match. If India scores more than 250 then it would be tough for South Africa to chase as much as 270 or more. With Jasprit Bumrah back in form and Mohammad Shami bowling aggressively, it looks South Africa innings will not last long.
However, it’s too early to say because India have lost two wickets, and looking to play cautiously. The more India bats defensively, the more chances for South Africa to pick wickets arise. Things might change within couple of overs.
To keep playing in order to score more than 250, India needs to spoil South African bowlers’ line and length. This will put pressure on South Africa as quick runs for India will be too good not to lose anymore wickets. Cheteshwar Pujara and Virat Kohli needs to build a partnership of at least 100 runs. Both need not depend upon the lower middle-order or upon Rishabh Pant or Ajinkya Rahane. The two, Pant and Rahane would not likely to adapt to the conditions.
So far, India’s lead is 70 runs. India is ahead of South Africa, but anything could happen in the second hour of the first session before lunch today (day 3). Two more days – Friday and Saturday also to go.
Virat Kohli 14 off 39 balls. Cheteshwar Pujara 9 off 31 balls. India lost two wickets for 57 runs off 17 overs. A good Test match run-rate.
