Another solid session for India as they've got South Africa by the scruff of their neck. After Umesh struck in the first over of the morning, South Africa had a decent partnership as Bavuma and Hamza added 90-odd for the fourth wicket. But, once that stand was broken, South Africa collapsed like a house of cards. The visitors still trail by 368 runs, but can India wrap up the tail quickly. Or will we see South Africa's tail adding some crucial runs like they've done earlier in the series.

42.1 Shami to Anrich Nortje, no run, gets squared up and defends it out with a hop on to the back foot
