At this moment, i will not call Indian favorites because if they again played poor in the second innings, this can give south Africa another chance to come back in the match.

The outcome of the match will depend on India's batting in the 2nd innings. If India can collect more than 300, they will definitely win. Because we've seen batsmen have a lot of trouble to collecting runs on this pitch. South Africa managed to collect only 210 runs. India have already lost 2 wickets for 57 runs. Pujara and Kohli are at the crease. The next day the two of them have to be at the crease at least for the first session if they want to win the match. Because no batsman in India can be relied on now. Because the performance of all batsmen is now irregular.

We all thought that India showed a poor batting performance in the first innings by scoring only 223 runs. But now we see south
Africa showed an even worse batting display and were bowled out for mere 210 runs. Jasprit Bumrah got 5 wickets and was the highlight of the day.

None of the teams played badly and the Proteas performance wasn't worse as well. India got the lead of 13 runs only, today they have added 57 more runs by losing 2 wickets. India should set a target above 350 runs to make the game on their favour. The pitch could be good for batters on the last two days of this match. We may see the similar result like the second test match if Indian batting lineup collapsed at the first session of tomorrow. Anyway, betting odds is in favour of India now.

India VS South Africa

India lost all their wickets for just 223 runs. But now the situation in South Africa is even worse. South Africa lost their seventh wicket for 176 runs. Petersen is still at the crease with 70 runs. Indian batsmen couldn't play well. If South Africa could have scored 300 runs, they would have won. But their batting is very bad. They may lose all their wickets before 200 runs. However, the chances of the match being drawn are slim. I think India is more likely to win.

Shami turned over the match with a superb bowling performance. Having two quick wickets was a great performance from Shami, who always gives his best for his team. India have won vital wickets so far as SA's 8th wicket has fallen. Things must be concluded. Bumrah hits the target. Even though everyone predicted that this was going to be a batsman's day, Indian bowlers had different plans. The odds even indicate a win for India. A draw is possible, but a lot of cricket remains. Let's see what happens.

South Africa Collection 209/9. Perhaps they will not be able to surpass India's run.
Despite the poor batting of the Indian batsmen, the performance of the Indian bowlers was outstanding. Only the performance of the bowlers has enabled India to fight for victory in this match. Bumrah has taken 4 wickets. Umesh Yadav and Shami both took two wickets each. Basically the bowling of all the bowlers in India was good today. Soon South Africa will lose all their wickets. And India will have a chance to bat again today.

I think south african pitches have average totals around this much only, also where the pace bowling attacks of both the sides are outstanding it's difficult to bat in south african conditions, even when Indian side made 223, I knew it's not that bad of a score which could make you lose the game, India needs to score something around 250-300 again which will be more than enough to win this match I think

Indian selectors are not at all bothered with Ajinkya Rahane or Pujara it seems. They still get a berth in the team regardless of their performance. Pujara still played well yesterday but Rahane has been scoring single digit for a long time now and he needs to go out of the team. There are others like you suggested who can replace this guy.

India team selections are always player oriented and not just performance oriented in my opinion.

For example, the triple centurion Karun Nair never gets another chance since his 303 not out score. I am not expecting such a thing from CA or any other board.

The players who contributed to win the series against Australia in last year treated very poorly. In my opinion India won that series just because of new players and if Virat and same players played that Gabba match, then India might not have got chances to break the Australia's 32 year glory in Gabba.

To rub salt to the wounds, Rahane also wasted one review yesterday. There was a clear edge, and he still went to take the DRS. At least Kohli on the other end should have told him that there is no point in going for the DRS. Rahane had a consultation with Kohli, and after that went for the review (which was obviously turned down). Social media channels are full of posts against him. Anyway, this is the last test match of the series and he has one more chance left (second innings). After that he should be kicked out of the team and kept away for a long long time.

Really frustrated with the Indian selectors persisting with Ajinkya Rahane and Cheteswar Pujara. When was the last time these two scored a century? After repeated poor performances, it looks as if they have assured slots in the playing XI. And all this at a time when promising youngsters like Shreyas Iyer, Venkatesh Iyer, Ishan Kishan and Ruturaj Gaikwad are relegated to the sidelines. Rahane now averages just 39 in test cricket and I really don't understand the logic in keeping him in the playing XI.

There need to be no excuses that if they bat first, they could have won. Teams should be capable of showing performance batting first or second. Bangladesh did not play well in this match and New Zealand won this test by an innings and 117 runs.

The main highlight of the match was Ross Taylor took the last wicket of bangladesh on the last ball of his final test appearance.

Spot on. Excuses related to toss and other factors are downright silly and stupid. NZ demolished Bangladesh thanks to a spectacular innings by Latham and amazing bowling performances by Boult and Jamieson.

Ross Taylor had a fairy-tale ending to his test career thanks to that wicket. Another legend is out. Will miss him for sure.

Now this match also looks likes the second Test match and if the bowlers are not able to restrict South Africa then it will be hard to get back in this match as it looks like a difficult pitch to bat.

I feel like I am watching an ODI series between India and South Africa at this point. South Africa definitely has the advantage currently though they could lose it if we witness a batting collapse.

Although Virat Kohli could not score a century, he played very well today. He is the highest run-scorer among Indian players. He scored 79 runs off 201 balls. India collected 223 runs. While the Indian collection is not enough,though I am happy because in great form. He will play better in the next innings if he is back in form, i hope so.

If not for the patient innings from Virat Kohli, India would be struggling to get to this total, if one player was able to give him a decent support from the other end, the situation would have been different. Now this match also looks likes the second Test match and if the bowlers are not able to restrict South Africa then it will be hard to get back in this match as it looks like a difficult pitch to bat.

Day 3 at Christchurch with Bangladesh requiring a massive innings to improve their run rate yet 5 wickets gone. I question how much long they will survive on the pitch. I hope nothing but at this point but at least a respective performance. Maybe being too optimistic but waiting to see a better bating display from Bangladeshi batters Liton Das or Hasan.

This match is being dominated by Newzealand. They want to forget the humiliating defeat that they faced in the first test match. Bangladesh has already lost 7 wickets and are still trailing by 127 runs. I do not think that the tailenders will be able to chase that score. I also feel after winning the first match Bangladesh became over confident and elected to bowl first. If they had batted first then the situation might have been different now.

There need to be no excuses that if they bat first, they could have won. Teams should be capable of showing performance batting first or second. Bangladesh did not play well in this match and New Zealand won this test by an innings and 117 runs.

The third Test match between South Africa and India will be held shortly after. This is the last Test match of the series. The series is still in a 1-1 draw. India won the first Test match and they dominate the full 5 days. South Africa won the second Test. I hope this match will be competitive. My hope is that India will win.
Virat Kohli was absent in the second Test. He will be in the squad for this match. He will be the captain. KL Rahul will be the Vice-Captain. Kohli has not been in form for a long time. I'm anxious to see a 100-run innings from Virat.

Virat Kohli had come back after rest. In most of the match he does his contribution. In several matches his contribution has helped the team succeed. The match have started, India have won the toss and elected to bat. Starting the innings India have lost 2 wickets for 33 runs. Now Virat Kohli have come and has faced 9 balls taking zero runs.

@Vaskiy Virat has to score big in this match, and he should at least try and stay as long as he can on the pitch and help other player’s make valuable contributions, and then inspire them to beat this SA side.

Also if India don’t win this match then I fear he’ll lose test captaincy too, and it’s a possibility that he along with Rahane, and Pujara maybe removed from the team as they’re not in their best form, hence these 3 need to ensure team India wins this match, and in the process prolong their test career.

Despite losing 8 wickets, India's captain Virat Kohli maintains his position. Virat Kohli took 157 deliveries to get to fifty runs! He played a classy innings in such conditions. He's not out of shape, he's just not performing up to his usual standard. Virat Kohli has scored an extremely important half century at crusial time, and is now heading to century if the two batters remain on this pitch a little longer.

update: India have been dismissed for 223 and Virat Kohli has scored 79 (201).

You're right, also it looks like the Indian cricket board is full of politics than fair functioning. Considering the contribution of Virat Kohli he can be given chances than directly taking the captaincy.

Virat has been doing the best, Pujara managed to score 43 runs whereas Rahane lost his wicket scoring just 9 runs in a very important match. Virat Kohli has taken the responsibility and playing the best test cricket scoring 40 runs out of 139 balls. Considering the early wickets what India have scored by now seems to be a better score. If I'm not wrong, Kohli will focus much on withstanding partnership than scoring runs. Because, if the winning chance decreases he needs to manage atleast for a draw.
