Elgar's 14th test Century Puts South Africa in Driver's Seat as India Hunts for Breakthroughs on Day 3

In an ongoing battle on Day 3 of the 1st Test between India and South Africa at Centurion, Dean Elgar is proving to be the Proteas' main man, driving them into a dominant position in the continuing struggle between South Africa and India. Elgar is demonstrating his prowess with the bat, scoring his 14th century in Test matches and sending India chasing vital wickets to change the tide.

 

 

 

 

KL Rahul opened the day with a controlled 70 runs at the crease, displaying tenacity at the crease for India. Rahul's outstanding effort had paid off, as he reached a well-earned century with a dominant maximum. But with him gone, the Indian team faces a difficult period ahead as they strive to assemble a respectable score.

Bedingham is helping the Proteas maintain their position as they attempt to open up a sizable lead.
