4:03pm The umpires are getting together. And that is stumps on day four. South Africa day all the way. Jurel applauds and welcomes the nighwatch Kuldeep back for surviving the tricky phase. South Africa did what India have been doing for all these years to their opponents. Score big and let the spinners do their thing. Their batters, led by Stubbs' 94, set India an improbable 549. Jaiswal then fell on the cut shot again, and then Harmer and Maharaj applied the squeeze with the former accounting for Rahul's wicket.
A tough, tough task awaits India in a home Test on the fifth day. That of saving the game and coming from the series with a 1-0 margin than 2-0. Will they be able to draw the game from hereon? Join us nice and early tomorrow to find out.
Tristan Stubbs: "Wasn't an overs thing. It was more about time. We wanted to bat 40 minutes after lunch. When Jadeja came on, that was the last over, so two hits was what I tried. Some of the options, you had to play them. If you looked to defend, you might be a sitting duck. The reverse sweep was more of a defensive shot to get off strike. Some nice foot-holes. Harmy showed by getting KL out."
Two silly points, a short leg and slip
