It should have been the most remarkable event of the day, or even of the series, that South Africa went all out for 55. After India's innings collapsed within 11 balls of the third session of the first day, it was ultimately reduced to a footnote. At the beginning of the 34th over, the visitors were 153/4; at the end of the 36th over, they were 153 all out with one ball remaining. Lungi Ngidi began by ending KL Rahul and Virat Kohli's partnership by dismissing the former off the second ball of the 34th over, followed by the dismissals of Ravindra Jadeja and Jasprit Bumrah for ducks.
