LUNCH - DAY 5

SA 94-3 (107 ovs) & 121 vs India 334 & 267-5d | Scorecard

AB edges Ashwin past the slips for a single bring du Plessis on strike for the first time against the off-spinner as he defends the last ball of the over.

Jadeja gets a break after figures of 34-27-10-1, he didn't concede a single in 11 overs he bowled on Day 5, while making the breakthrough with the key wicket of Amla.

Pacer Yadav comes into the attack as Kohli looks to make a breakthrough.

Du Plessis finally gets off the mark from the 52nd ball he faces as he drives a full toss through the covers for a single to the fielder in the deep in the covers.

Another single for du Plessis as he turns a short ball from Yadav to the fine leg region.

A short break for Jadeja, who has not conceded a run in his last 15 overs and he promptly starts with another maiden, his 28th in 35 overs.

Yadav gets one to jump off the good length spot as AB is struck on the gloves while trying to defend. That is a painful blow as he throws his bat away immediately and winces in pain. The physio comes out to attend him before AB continues after a small break.

Yadav gets another once to bounce awkwardly, hitting AB on the gloves yet again, who throws his bat away. Strangely, India do not have a fielder stationed at short leg or anywhere close in else that could have been an easy catch for the forward short leg fielder. Poor thinking by the Indian captain Kohli under the circumstances.

At lunch on Day 5, South Africa reach 94 for three in 107 overs, having scored just 22 runs from 35 overs in the morning session.

De Villiers took a few blows on his fingers from Yadav in the final over but showed great application to remain unbeaten on 26 from 203 balls, while du Plessis also followed the same tactics to score two from 61 balls.

Jadeja didn't concede a single run in the 12 overs he bowled in the session, while picking up the wicket of Amla, the only dismissal of the session.

Ashwin failed to pick up a wicket in the session, he has figures of two for 43 in 35 overs.

India still have a minimum of 55 overs left in their kitty to claim the remaining seven wickets but the slow wicket has made their task a lot more difficult.
