“It’s been challenging and we have runs on the board, so it is very balanced. Although we didn’t take too many wickets, we are confident that the pitch will deteriorate tomorrow & they will find the wicket difficult to bat” Pujara said at the end of third day’s play on Wednesday.

India vs South Africa LIVE: South Africa’s chase is led by skipper Dean Elgar. Proteas captain has hung in for 121 balls and is only four short of a half-century despite frequently getting beaten outside the off stump.

His gritty stay will be worrisome for the visitors, who are aiming to secure their maiden series win in South Africa. Even the South African camp feels – Elgar would be the most important figure if they have to win the Johannesburg test.

“He’s a competitor. The thing he loves about the game is the competitiveness. The competitive nature of Test cricket brings the best out of him,” South Africa’s batting consultant Justin Sammons said of Elgar during the media interaction at the end of day’s play.

“His role will be massively important. Having somebody there to bat for the rest of the innings would be the key.
