IND vs SA, 3rd Test:Umesh, Shami take India close to 3-0

The Hindu  

That's it for Day 3! Temba Bavuma, one of South Africa's better performers in the 1st innings is back in the hut for a duck. South Africa finished the second day's play, staring down the barrel on 9/2, still 488 runs behind India's first-innings score. When Rohit's carnage of 28 fours and six sixes ended off Kagiso Rabada’s bowling, every South African player walked up to shake hands with him. Not only did Rohit and Rahane dismantle South Africa's bowling in the early half of the first session, they also hit them the hardest where it would hurt them the most— ruthlessly attacking their young fast bowlers.
