India vs South Africa Live Updates | 1st Test Day 3: Pitch Report

<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	The Day 3 pitch report suggests that it will be nice and dry thanks to the sunshine it has received in the early hours of the day and will be the best one for batting in this Test so far. A few soft patches and a few divots could pose some challenges to the batters. Ashwin could come into play later in the day if Proteas manage to bat past the first session. They will have to wait for the new ball to pass first.&nbsp;</div>

<div>

India vs South Africa Live Score | 1st Test Day 3: Match Summary

<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	Virat Kohli was the last man to go for India as Kagiso Rabada took a stunning catch at long-on to get the best batter on the day as the Indian team folded for 131 in their second innings on Day 3 to lose the India vs South Africa 1st Test at the SuperSport Park in Centurion on Thursday, December 28, 2023.</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	Dean Elgar with the bat (185), Rabada, Nandre Burger with the ball (7 wickets each) and Marco Jansen all around (84* runs and four wickets) were the main heroes for the Proteas who took an unassailable 1-0 lead in the two-match series, part of the World Test Championship 2023-25.&nbsp;</div>

India vs South Africa Live Score | 1st Test Day 3: Rabada takes a stunner to win it for Proteas

<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	South Africa have not only beaten India but also not allowed Virat Kohli to get a hundred. Kagiso Rabada dived full-length at long-on to take a stunning catch to remove him off the bowling of Marco Jansen, who picked up his third wicket of the match. India were bowled out for 132 and Proteas won by an innings and 32 runs.&nbsp;</div>

India vs South Africa Live Score | 1st Test Day 3: Burger gets fourth wicket courtesy of a brilliant review

<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	It was one heck of a review by Nandre Burger as the ball hit Siraj on the helmet and went to the keeper, which is what the on-field umpire thought and that is why he gave not out.&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	Kyle Verreyenne, the Proteas wicket-keeper asked Dean Elgar to go for the review, which he did. The review showed that before hitting the helmet, the ball edged the gloves of Siraj which were in contact with the bat and as a result, Siraj was given out.&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>

India vs South Africa Live Score | 1st Test Day 3: Bumrah run-out

<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	It was never a second there and Kohli should have trusted Bumrah to get him a single on the next ball. Instead, the dup ran for two, subjecting Bumrah to a great throw from Dean Elgar, who threw one-handed, very accurately to Rabada, who made no mistake in flicking the bails quickly way before Bumrah could make it through at the non-striker&rsquo;s end.&nbsp;</div>

India vs South Africa Live Score | 1st Test Day 3: Rabada gets Thakur, India seven down

<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	Well, this drop too hasn&rsquo;t cost much to the Proteas as Thakur departs for meagre two runs on the board in the very next poverty after being dropped. Dropped off Burger, Rabada got him with a length ball that rose and kissed the shoulder of Thakur&rsquo;s bat as he played it straight to Bedingham in the gully region. India are now seven down.&nbsp;</div>

India vs South Africa Live Score | 1st Test Day 3: Thakur dropped

<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	Shardul Thakur gets dropped in the first slip by Marco Jansen. He has dropped the second chance in the match and the Proteas have dropped their third one in this innings. It would have been nine wickets by now had they held on to all their catches. Earlier, Jaiswal was dropped by Markram and Iyer by Petersen.&nbsp;</div>

India vs South Africa Live Score | 1st Test Day 3: Fifty for Kohli

<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	After giving a scare to the Indian fans by throwing his bat at Burger&rsquo;s first ball of the over, Kohli manages to flick one for a four past the mid-wicket region to collect his fifty which has come off just 61 balls. This is his 29th Test fifty to go alongside the same number of hundreds in the longest format.&nbsp;</div>

India vs South Africa Live Score | 1st Test Day 3: Burger goes bang-bang, has Ashiwn

<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	After getting Rahul to play a drive away from his body, Burger kept the length the same, probably a bit towards the shorter side for Ashwin, who too had a flash at it and the ball flew to the gully where David Bedingham hung on to it to get Proteas their sixth and Burger his third wicket. He will be on a hat-trick on the first ball of his next over.&nbsp;</div>

<div>

India vs South Africa Live Score | 1st Test Day 3: Kohli hits a six, great comeback by Coetzee

<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	That was an amazing shot from Virat Kohli as he picked the length early and at the front foot, hit a back-of-length ball for a six over covers. The bowler, Gerald Coetzee made a great comeback afterwards, bowling two unplayable deliveries.&nbsp;</div>

India vs South Africa Live Score | 1st Test Day 3: Jansen strikes, gets Iyer

<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	Marco Jansen struck right after being hit for four and three runs to clean up Shreyas Iyer, the man who was dropped off his bowling before Tea. Much like Gill, Iyer too became a victim of a fuller ball from Jansen which went through his defences to crash into the stumps.&nbsp;</div>

India vs South Africa Live Score | 1st Test Day 3: Positive start from Kohli

<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	Virat Kohli started on a positive footing in the third and final session of the third day of the Boxing Day Test as he got three runs off the first ball post Tea and then hit Marco Jasne for a four as well. He has scored all the runs that India have since Tea.&nbsp;</div>

India vs South Africa Live Score | 1st Test Day 3: Tea called

<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	Proteas could have been the happier team heading into the dressing room at Tea on Day three of the Boxing Day Test at the Supersport Park in Centurion. However, because of the dropped catch of Iyer, their happiness would have been dimmed. Iyer was dropped by Keegan Petersen in the third slip.&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	This was the second dropped catch of the innings by the Proteas after Aiden Markram dropped Yashasvi Jaiswal in the very first ball of the innings. That did not cost much as Jaiswal departed for only five runs.&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	Yet, they are the dominant team, leading by 101 runs with a whole session of play possible in the third and final session. At the start of the third session, Kohli will start on 18 and Iyer on 6 while all the four Proteas pacers will be eyeing wickets. So far, Rabada, Burger and Jansen have got one wicket each.&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>

India vs South Africa Live Score | 1st Test Day 3: Iyer dropped

<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	Oh no!! Another one goes down. It was a genuine edge as Shreyas Iyer went poking at a ball outside off from Marco Jasne and got an edge towards the slip cordon. Keegan Petersen at the third slip went in with the left hand while Markram behind was into his routine with both hands. It stuck Keegan&rsquo;s palm and touched the grass. It was the second drop catch of the session by the Proteas as Tea was called at the SuperSport Park in Centurion.&nbsp;</div>
