India vs South Africa, 2nd Test - Live Cricket Score, Commentary

Harmer to Jaiswal, out Caught by Marco Jansen!! That's a huge wicket! Grip and turn on offer, Jaiswal was back in the crease to play at it. The ball stops into the surface slightly and Jaiswal ends up getting an outside edge towards short third man. Jansen stationed there takes a good low catch and with that wicket, both the Indian openers are back to the pavilion. End of a good knock by Jaiswal, but India wanted more from him as they still trail by a huge margin of 394 runs. The South African spinners are starting to get some purchase from this surface on Day 3. Ominous signs for the Indian batters. Jaiswal c Marco Jansen b Harmer 58(97) [4s-7 6s-1]
