George Linde to Rahane, out Caught by Klaasen!! He's taken a thumping, his partner Piedt's taken a bigger thumping, but together they've successfully bought out Rahane here -- an over-positive, uncharacteristic Rahane, who'd already got into the declaration mode. This time he doesn't step out, stays back deep in the crease crouching instead in trying a late dab of sorts. Nope. He ain't that good. He nicks. And Klaasen has his redemption, ten runs later, for his first Test dismissal. Oh yeah, and also Linde first Test dismissal. The ovation from the few in the stands isn't for that though, it's for the sublime masterclass Rahane's put through here. Rahane c Klaasen b George Linde 115(192) [4s-17 6s-1]

Vipul Tyagi says: After this series, one thing will happen for sure. Either Faf will relinquish captaincy or he will retire from Tests
