Chidambaram: "Earlier, test matches at Eden Gardens used to start at 9:00 AM" No calls of preponement yet, developments - if any - will be reported. 11 wickets and 196 runs across 75 overs today. Join us tomorrow to find out what Saturday has to offer.
BISWADEEP DAS: "Which team will be penalised for slow over rate INDIA or SOUTH AFRICA?" Not India because they bowled out the opposition under 80 overs.
KarthikK: "Actually this is the best time to get the wickets!! Unfortunately the SA fielders wasted 4-5 minutes in the last few overs!!"
Mohammed Siraj New ball came onto bat nicely. Older ball was keeping low, so I attacked the stumps and built pressure. Before taking the wicket, I asked to give me one more over. Two wickets fell. Ball's reversing, tough to score off the stumps, especially with a leg-side field. The wider you go, the easier it gets. Ball was up and down from one end, so the pacers attacked from here. Other end was easier. Bumrah was telling me to keep the lines straight. We're in a good position, just one wicket down. They started really well before our bowlers hit back. Now we're better off.
4:30pm, Day 1, Stumps Harmer was keen on wanting to bowl but the umps decide enough is enough. The light has the final say. Rahul and Washington have gone unscathed through a super-tricky period against excellent bowling. Maharaj is unlucky not to have taken Rahul, ball almost kissed the stumps earlier. Washington, too, was happy to be beaten, just stayed put. Jansen was good, got Jaiswal - who was out cutting again. 20 overs, 37 runs might look boring but it wasn't just that. Lots of plays and misses, ball slightly above bat, but just the one wicket. Riveting stuff.

Fielders being brought in as the light deteriorates. Pads being brought out for close-in fielders. Ump talking to Bavuma and Maharaj. Dinesh Karthik on air says SA missing a beat by delaying. Maharaj wants things to hurry up. Rickelton runs in with pads and a helmet on. About 3-4 minutes gone in all of this. Three and a half it is. Ryan at silly mid-off
