India vs South Africa Highlights 1st Test, Day 3: Shami enters 200 club, India extend lead on eventful day in Centurion

Meanwhile, Bumrah has returned to the deck, giving Indian fans some relief. The pacer had a discussion with the on-field umpire, asking when he can resume bowling. This is just minutes before the tea. 

Just when it looked like South Africa had built a decent stand, Shardul Thakur removes De Kock to break the partnership. Inside edge and it crashed straight into the woodwork. De Kock would be disappointed after watching the replays. Wiaan Mulder joins Bavuma in the middle.

South Africa 104/5

A vociferous appeal from Siraj and Kohli went upstairs to review the LBW decision. Looked like it was going down the leg side and ball-tracking told the same tale. Wickets missing and India lose the review!

De Kock, who was dropped on a duck by Rahul, is looking solid in the middle. He's on 32 off 55 at the moment. India looking for a breakthrough here. Thirty minutes to go before tea.

De Kock and Bavuma have now added 60 runs for the fifth wicket, playing a key role in South Africa's stirring fightback after early blows. The hosts are now inching closer to the 100-run mark.

Consecutive boundaries by Bavuma. He didn't middle Thakur's delivery but it managed to race towards the boundary in the cover region. The right-hander edged the next delivery but gets away with it, also earning four more runs. He's spent over 50 deliveries and looking to resurrect the early collapse.

It's an ankle sprain as reported.

Close… Siraj, bowling round the wicket, squares up de Kock. Opens him up as the ball takes the edge and flies towards third slip. However, there just wasn't enough on it as the ball landed short of a diving KL Rahul.

After 22 overs, India have brought R Ashwin into the attack. The partnership between de Kock and Bavuma is is beginning to gather momentum, and perhaps Kohli can sense that. Can Ashwin get among the wickets tally here? 

His team may be pushed to the walls here but Quinton de Kock will not hold back to the balls that deserve to be punished. He gets himself a couple off boundaries off Shardul Thakur, who oversteps twice in the 20th over.

"Indians have learnt what to do on the pitch from South Africa," says Ajit Agarkar from the commentary box. Even when Bumrah is off the field, India have looked in command.

What a day of Test cricket we're witnessing.. 11 wickets already! Van der Dussen nicks it to Rahane in the slips as Siraj enters the wicket-takers column.

Shami strikes again by clipping the top of off stump and removing Markram for 13. Bowlers are extracting a lot of movement today and the early flurry of wickets showed that.

South Africa 30/3

Injury scare for Bumrah, who seems to have twisted his ankle in the follow through. He's back on his feet but walking off the field. Siraj will finish the over for Bumrah.

Looked like an outside edge but wasn't one! Shami's delivery made contact with Makram's back thigh before flying towards Pujara in the slips. Pant, however, dives in front but doesn't manage to pouch it.

The next man in, Rassie van der Dussen has been smacked on the gloves by Bumrah. The South African moves forward to defend but takes a hit on the glove. Siraj might also enjoy bowling here!

Shami delivers straightaway. He castles Petersen for 15 as South Africa lose their second wicket. The Indian camp is chirpy out there now. Markram might be the next on the team's to-do list.

South Africa 25/2

The second session gets underway. Shami opens the attack for India!

Petersen has looked solid with his technique, having got 16 First-class hundreds to his name. Markram has been a constant LBW technique due to his stance covering the wickets.. but the right-hander has also produced some lovely drives on the off-side.

"Had SA bowled a bit more tighter on the opening day, they would have been in a much better position," says Sanjay Bangar on Star Sports about the change in bowling approach that triggered the Indian collapse on Day 3.

What a superb shot from Petersen, who drives it towards covers for a picture-perfect shot. South Africa 21/1 at lunch, trailing by 306 runs, with Markram (9) and Petersen (11) at the crease.

Shami into the attack and Keegan Petersen glances it towards square leg for a single. Six have gone by and SA are trailing by 311 runs. Also, the average score batting first in Centurion in 329 -- something for Indian fans to feel better after witnessing the unexpected collapse.
