1.50pm Well, there's some respite for India's attack. Over to their batters. India need 164 to make SA bat once again in this Test. Be back soon for India's second innings.

Amit Gaharwar: "More than likely chance that India might lose this by an innings.150 lead on this pitch is too big."

Akshay: "Can we please fly Pujara in? Need one of his epic rearguards to drain SA's will to live :)"

Naman: "It's not about Prasidh's potential but he hasn't got much First class cricket behind him which was very evident in this match..Ind should refrain themselves from fast-tracking players into the Test side."

Utsav : "Boom Boom has already bowled 26 overs in this match. If India were to get out this unscathed, wonder what would his condition be for the second match."

Vinay: "Poor Jansen.. Bavuma should have come for his 100 at least.. just stand there for him.. "

Jakes: "I honestly think Bavuma could have come out at swung the bat a little bit, even if he got a quick 20 SA would have been 200 in the lead with Jansen maybe getting a 100 "

Bumrah to Burger, OUT, Bumrah yorks Burger. Bavuma won't bat for SA. Jansen is stranded on 84. Right in the blockhole from round the stumps, even a top-order batter might have found it difficult to keep it out. Bumrah hits the base of off stump with an accurate yorker

Sumoy: "Prasidh's got potential, I just hope he isnt thrust into tests when he isnt ready. Remember VRV Singh and Jaydev Unadkat? After their debut tests in SA, they both faded away from international cricket. Hope Prasidh doesnt meet the same fate."
