India vs South Africa, Live Cricket Score, 2nd Test Day 3: Virat Kohli Leads India’s Reply With Defiant Century

Indian captain Virat Kohli stood firm against a relentless South African bowling attack on an attritional second day of the second Test at SuperSport Park on Sunday. Kohli made 85 not out as India reached 183 for five at the close in reply to South Africa’s first-innings total of 335. It was tough going for both batsmen and bowlers on a slow pitch on a hot day. Kohli made his runs off 130 balls with eight fours. The Indian skipper was saved by a faint inside edge on a ball from debutant Lungi Ngidi late in the day which was crashing into his stumps. The powerfully built Ngidi was one of four bowlers to take a wicket each, having Parthiv Patel caught behind. He built up impressive pace, with one delivery timed at 150.5 km/h.
