Rain rules the roost on Day 3, Rajpoot strikes twice
The HinduWhen Mohammed Siraj knocked off Dane Piedt at the stroke of tea, the little crowd that had gathered at the Platinum Oval cheered out loud expecting to catch a glimpse of the Indian openers later in the day. But heavy showers called the shots to limit the Day 3 action to 32.4 overs with South Africa A stranded at 294 for the loss of seven wickets; trailing by 51 runs. After a delayed start, Ankit Rajpoot took full advantage of the overcast conditions to remove Rassie van der Dussen and Rudi Second. The Proteas, pushed back due to the slow outfield and wet grass, limped to 250 with Senuran Muthusamy and Dwaine Pretorious trying their best to make a match out of the rain-hit day.
