SA won the toss and elected to field.
India 0/35.
Steyn bowling beautifully and has been unlucky. Question, why is Tsotsobe still in the side?

Still have that quota thing going, perhaps?
Edit: Sehwag is gone, Steyn breaks through at 1/43.

But I thought they had a couple in the side already?
Steyn! Nice footwork by Sehwag again.

If they are in there, they would be Cape coloured cricketers, because I can't think of any.

Even Strauss and Cook?

We'd love to have a Steyn in our side.

Even those two.
If England had Steyn, everyone would be praising our score of 98.

Tsotsobe did get rid of Tendulkar with a decent ball for 13, but has also bowled a couple of "please hit me" balls to Laxman who did the rest.

That's going to be an often quoted bit of commentary:
"The best figures at this ground was by Hugh Tayfield, who was a spinner. The second best figures was by Hugh Tayfield - who was also a spinner."
Laxman hit a six before - only his fifth six he has ever hit in Test matches.

6/158, Tsotsobe gets Pujara to sky one to Boucher.
Interesting set of scores by the top six: 25, 19, 25, 13, 38, 19.

And yeah, strange looking scorecard, everyone getting starts but failing to convert.

15 and 20 should make up the six IMO - as that's what the not out batsmen are on at the moment.

I was watching some of the replay before and India were in real trouble. Steyn was on fire and bowling really well until he pulled out of his stride during a delivery and looked to of injured his left Groin. He went off for a while and then luckily came back on.

Lets wait and see how many individual all out scores India make between 1 and 45 in this innings, then we will do it:

1, 13, 19, 21, 25, 35, 38
Maybe even an entry to OZ Lotto?
Steyn 6/50
India 205 - Laxman top scoring with 38.

Here's hoping South Africa can make another 600+ score.

4/74. Unfortunately 600 won't be a goal this time, a handy lead will be it.

Hmm, this series is looking like its momentum is violently changing too!
South Africa are now 7/103, basically halfway to 205.
