IND vs SA Live Match Score: ICYMI – Mohammed Shami’s sheer artistry with new and old ball fetched him another five-wicket haul as India seized control of the first Test against South Africa on the third day by extending their overall lead to 146 runs that could prove to be decisive. Shami (16-5-44-5) and his pace bowling colleagues Jasprit Bumrah (7.2-2-16-2), Mohammed Siraj (15.3-1-45-1) and Shardul Thakur (11-1-51-2) further enhanced their reputation as world-beaters by dismissing the Proteas for mere 197. The quartet neutralized Lungi Ngidi’s lion-hearted morning spell which saw him finish on 6 for 71 from 24 overs as India lost seven wickets from 55 runs to be all-out on 327.

SA vs IND Live Cricket Score Today: For South Africa, the only way they can get back into the game is by taking wickets. If they manage to pick a few quickly and create panic in the Indian dressing room, you just never know. The new ball will be key, even in the last 30 mins or so, they were quite wayward with their lines and lengths, they’ll need to buck up on Day 4. A fascinating day awaits. Do join us at 1.30 PM IST (8 AM GMT) for the first ball but the build-up will begin much in advance. Till then, goodbye and cheers!

Live Score IND vs SA Test: The visitors would have loved to enter Day 4 unscathed but they still have 9 wickets in hand and have already added 16 to the lead they had. A couple of partnerships is what they’ll need on Wednesday and they’ll probably be the most likely ones to win this.

Live Cricket Score IND vs SA Test: FOUR! Streaky boundary for Shardul Thakur and this will be the end of the day. A good-length delivery around off. Thakur pushes at it tentatively and the ball catches the outside edge of his balde. The ball goes through the gully region and a boundary to end the day for India. India are 16/1 after the end of DAY 3. The lead is now of 146 runs. A good little passage of play for South Africa comes to an end. They would have desperately wanted a wicket before Stumps and they have got it. However, the day has completely belonged to the Indians and they are in the driver’s seat in this game.

IND vs SA Live Score Today: OUT! TAKEN! Marco Jansen removes Mayank Agarwal for 4. De kock certainly had no problems in taking that and Jansen strikes on his first ball. Just what South Africa needed, a wicket before Stumps. It is a good length delivery, angling away from off. Agarwal feels for it away from the body. This goes off the outside edge and de Kock takes it. The South Africans are elated. Still time for another and there will be a new kind of energy in this ending phase of Day 3 in the South Africans. Also, he’ll be on a hat-trick. He got the last wicket in the first innings and now strikes on the very first ball. India 327 & 12/1 in 5.1 overs vs South Africa (197) in Centurion
