India 281-7 (82 ovs) vs SA 335 | Scorecard

Maharaj switches to round the wicket to Ashwin and immediately makes an impression. Ashwin is beaten off the second ball trying to lash at a wide ball before the next ball hits the gloves but flies over the fielder at slip.

Two singles from that over as India continue to eat up on South Africa's lead, but South Africa are waiting to get their hands on the second new ball which is due after the next over.

Ngidi comes back as Kohli taps a short ball on the off-side for one before Ashwin also picks a single.

Kohli then pulls a short ball through midwicket but the fielder in the deep keeps it down to two.

India are 269 for six in 80 overs but South Africa decide against taking the new ball as Maharaj continues.

Ashwin seizes the opportunity as he lofts the first ball from the spinner over the off-side for a four. He survives a close shout for leg before wicket later in the over as the umpire turns it down and the South Africans decide against taking the DRS.

South Africa take the new ball at the end of the 81st over as Philander, who has bowled 11 overs so far, comes back.

Kohli welcomes the second new ball in grand style, crashing it through the covers for a lovely boundary. He is half forward to the next ball and gets an inside edge for three runs fine on the leg side.

Philander makes the new ball count with the wicket of Ashwin. He throws his bat at a wide delivery, which moves away enough to take the edge and du Plessis does well to hold on at second slip. Infact, that ball flew to du Plessis, who barely had time to react but managed to hold on.

Ashwin played a good hand of 38 runs, hitting seven fours in his 54-ball knock, but importantly added 71 runs for the seventh wicket with Kohli.

Mohammed Shami plays a strange shot first, walking right across his stumps before he is squared up by the outswinger. Shami gets off the mark with a single from the last ball of the over.
