On Day 2, early stumping due to bad light saw South Africa reach 256/5, 11 runs ahead of India. After tea on the second day, Dean Elgar and David Bedingham, who had a fifty on his debut, stitched a century partnership, capping off an incredible series for Elgar. India has let go as South Africa has taken the lead. They are clearly exhausted because they have gone nearly thirty overs without a wicket. When Mohammed Siraj eventually removed Bedingham from the game, India's wait for a wicket had reached 131.
