The Indian batsmen will have to show their strength on the third day, so far the state of the game

Today is the third day of the game between India and South Africa at Newlands Cricket Ground (NCG) in Cape Town. The Indian team had scored 223 runs in the first innings, reducing the hosts to 210 runs. The Indian team gained a 13-run lead. At the end of the second day’s game, India scored 57 runs in the second inning for the loss of 2 wickets. So far India has a 70-run lead. On the third day, Cheteshwar Pujara and Virat Kohli will carry out the Indian entries. There is great responsibility in these two hitters, as Pujara and Kohli had also done well in the last innings. The third day will be very decisive for this match.

The performance of the South African hitters was not good on the second day and the grounds continued to fall one after another. Indian fast bowlers outnumbered the hosts in 210 runs giving them continuous volleys. Jasprit Bumrah took the maximum of 5 plots, while Umesh Yadav and Mohammed Shami each took two plots. Apart from this, Shardul Thakur also took a piece of land. The Indian bowlers did well in the first innings, but it is only one inning of the match. It remains to be seen how much the Indian team will score in the second inning and whether or not South Africa will be able to reach the goal.

In the second inning, the Indian team’s hopes rest on captain Virat Kohli and Cheteshwar Pujara. Virat chipped in 79 and Pujara 43 runs in the first innings of the game. If both hitters can also score big in this inning, then Team India can make history by winning this series. For now, it will be necessary to see in which direction the match of the third day will go, since South African bowling is also seen with a good rhythm.
