India vs South Africa Highlights, 3rd Test, Day 3: Elgar falls late as SA reach 101/2 at Stumps

India's overly-animated approach during the final half-an-hour or so could probably prove detrimental for the team even as the side did dismiss captain Dean Elgar late on Day 3.

In the 212-run chase, South Africa reach 101/2 at Stumps.

Dean Elgar is finally dismissed. Bumrah strikes! Technology finally comes to help Indian team this time as the Indian pacer breaks a dangerous stand. Elgar won't be happy with how he gave his wicket away, though.

This one was going down the leg side and Elgar, in an attempt to find easy runs, goes for a flick but edges it for keeper Pant.

Both batters remain undeterred with the words flying on the field around them. Petersen has put on an exemplary shift and is nearing his half-century, as SA cross the 100-run mark.

SA 101/1. Target 212

An LBW appeal from Bumrah which is turned down by the umpire, and Indian fielders are at it again. “LBW is not a dismissal," chirps KL Rahul sarcastically.

IND 95/1. Target 212

Two successive fours from Keegan Petersen in Ashwin's over as South Africa slowly solidify their position in this game.

SA 93/1. Target 212

“You should find better ways to win, SuperSport,” says Ashwin on the stump mic. (SuperSport are the official broadcasters for the series in South Africa)

Some serious allegations beng thrown around on the field at the moment!

“Focus on your team as well when they shine the ball eh, not just the opposition” Kohli says on the stump mic shortly after the overturned decision on Elgar's dismissal.

The Indian players are still absolutely livid over the overturned decision and the impact of it is seemingly showing on the field. A lapse of concentration and runs are currently flowing for the Proteas.

Jasprit Bumrah is back into the attack as he replaces Shardul Thakur.

That's just rubbing salt on the wounds. The Indian team looked visibly animated after the overturned decision in Ashwin's previous over and Elgar and Petersen have now scored a four each against Shardul.

Brief lapse of concentration from the pacer as he pitches a little short on both deliveries.

SA 70/1. Target 212

The umpire raises the finger for what looked like a plumb. Elgar takes a review against the LBW decision. 

Wow. This looked out in realtime but the ball-tracking shows that the ball has missed the stump. Elgar survives again!

A high-rise delivery from Shardul Thakur seemed to have hit Petersen on his finger and he immediately takes off his glove and calls for physio.

SA 58/1. Target 212

Update: Petersen returns to bat.

It doesn't carry again but it goes for a boundary, which is worse. Elgar survives again as Shardul induces the outside edge but the ball bounces way before it could reach Pujara at first slip. The fielder fails to adjust with the bounce on time.

SA 57/1. Target 212

And Keegan Petersen welcomes him with a four. Poor delivery to start with. A bit short from Ashwin and Petersen makes space for himself, cuts it brilliantly towards deep.

Shardul had been bowling on good lines but bowls one outside off and short on the final delivery, and Elgar cuts it square for an easy two.

SA 49/1. Target - 212

A steady start from Keegan Petersen in the second innings as well. Dean Elgar, meanwhile, has had a rough start but he has started to look a bit settled, which isn't a good sign for Indians.

SA 47/1. Target: 212

Shardul Thakur replaces Mohammed Shami. He bowls to Keegan Petersen.

Almost draws an edge off Elgar on the last ball! Umesh keeps his lines and lengths tight and concedes two off the first over.

SA 43/1. Target - 212

Umesh Yadav replaces Jasprit Bumrah. He will bowl to Dean Elgar.

No bowling change so far as Bumrah and Shami have bowled six overs each. 

Except this time, he edged it intentionally. A clever edge as he opens the face of the bat and finds the gap between gully and backward point.

SA 35/1. Target - 212

Brilliant drive towards long-off by Petersen to get off the mark. 

SA 30/1. Target - 212

Bumrah induces the edge off Elgar as he comes around the wicket but it doesn't carry to Pujara at second slip. Game of margins!

There seems to be something off with the clothing on the sight screen.

SA 23/1. Target - 212

Shami strikes! Markram falls on 16. A thick outside-edge and Shami gets Markram again. The right-hander chases an away-swinger and goes for a drive with minimal feet movement.
