    1.2 Drags it on! What a dream start for India! He shapes up for the cut, but the length is not short enough. Plays away from the body and inside-edges back onto his stumps. De Kock departs for 1 and SA now need a repair job. 1/2
    0.6 Cleans him up with a ripper! That's what Chahar gives you, swing both ways! He had bowled only out-swingers till now. This time though, he changes it up - gets it to shape in nicely, and Bavuma is nowhere near it. Big, big gap between bat and pads, and the stumps are left in a mess. 1/1
    1.5 Another one bites the dust! Length ball that starts on fourth stump, and keep moving away. Rossouw searches for it first ball, driving away from his body. He can only find a thin edge with Pant finishing a comfortable catch. 8/3
    7.6 big LBW appeal but turned down. Between good length and full, lands around off. Markram moves to the off side, exposing leg stump, misses the flick, and ball hits the pad. Umpire Menon says no but wasn't a very confident no if I could add. Replay confirms that Markram went through that shot too early, and that's crashing into middle stump! Umpire Menon has to change his decision, Markram out for 25. The crowd roars! 42/6
    1.6 Oh, my days what a ball! That's as good a display of swing bowling one can see. He got the last ball to shape away. To Miller, he gets it back in. The batter plays all around it with the ball clattering top of middle. Arshdeep has the ball on a string and SA can't do anything. 8/4
    2.3 OMG. WHAT IS HAPPENING! Somewhat short, very wide, Stubbs wants to cut it over point, but there's a bit of extra bounce and the shot has flown off the edge. Third man comes charging in, dives forward, and holds on despite the tumble. Arshdeep, on a high after a three-for already, the fielder with the effort. 9/5
    15.5 Has he found the gap? NOPE! A tad tossed up and more importantly full on middle. Parnell sees a chance and looks for a slog. Does not get it anywhere close to the middle of the bat and can only find SKY at deep midwicket 68/7

    19.1 Gets his slower ball right for once gets his man! Slower off-cutter in the blockhole on middle. Maharaj gives himself room, more in hope, misses and the ball clatters into his middle and leg stump. 101/8
