SA 90-2 (29 ovs) & 335 vs India 307  | Scorecard

Welcome to the coverage of Day 4 of the second Test between South Africa and India in Pretoria on Tuesday.

India will be desperate to pick up early wickets and check South Africa's progress so that they don't have to chase much in the fourth innings, on a difficult pitch at Centurion.

Former South Africa players Shaun Pollock and Kepler Wessels believe that the pitch will continue to misbehave on the fourth day and batting will be difficult.

India captain Virat Kohli blazed a magnificent century, but South Africa hold the upper hand as they reached 90 for two in their second innings on a difficult wicket after rain and then bad light curtailed day three.

The home side lead by 118 runs having bowled India out for 307 after lunch, despite a classy 153 from Kohli, who played almost a lone hand in scoring half his side's runs.

AB de Villiers (50 not out) has taken the attack to the Indian bowlers after South Africa had sunk to three for two in their second innings on a wicket that is more Pune than Pretoria, with variable bounce and taking massive turn for the spinners.

De Villiers will resume on day four with opener Dean Elgar (36 not out), who has battled for rhythm but hung around in an unbeaten third wicket partnership of 87.

South Africa had been rocked earlier by a double-strike from Indian seamer Jasprit Bumrah (2-30), who trapped both Aiden Markram (1) and Hashim Amla (1) leg before wicket with deliveries that skidded through after keeping low.
