Under 200 to go ...

The ball is getting older.
The runs are getting less.
Wickets in hand.
Lots of time.
Brilliant test.

100% agreed. It'll be tense and stressful for both all the way down to the wire.

You have to love the passion Sunil Gavaskar brings to the small screen

12.30 pm There was the fear of the worst happening, but the umpires choosing to use a heavy roller might have helped dull the pitch just enough that batsmen do stand a chance now. The ball is also a bit softer, it's 28 overs old and doesn't have the pace a brand new nut does. Nevertheless, Dean Elgar and Hashim Amla still had to use every ounce of application and mental strength to walk in at 11 am and walk away now unbeaten. It is the first wicketless session of the entire Test match and it's only spurring the anticipation of the fans. India need nine pins to fall. South Africa need 172 runs.

Lunch Day 4: South Africa require another 172 runs with 9 wickets remaining

On the Pakistani cricket forum I follow the Indian posters are all crying foul and that we doctored the pitch overnight.

Yes, those guys are a riot. You don't want to be on any other forum when S.A/India are playing.

 

[Dan C]

Nicely played Elgar we somehow forgive you for that dropped catch

 

[Creag]

Elgar gets a good 50. Hard fought. Keep going lad!
