India vs South Africa 3rd Day of Testing 2 Live Score Updates: Team India will aim to put on a good show with the ball when they take to the field on Day 2 against South Africa at Newlands in Cape Town. Skipper Virat Kohli ran out of partners on Day 1, but not before helping the team cross the 200-run mark. Despite having a first-inning average score, pacesetter Jasprit Bumrah had his tail up and, with rhythm and pace, tossed away home team captain Dean Elgar to finish off a mixed day for the Indians. Close. With the series level at 1-1, Day 2 could have plenty of action in store as the Proteas will be desperate to revisit India’s 223 runs and claim the upper hand. (LIVE SCORING CARD)
