India loses its first wicket but the mark has been set as the opening pair managed to score 97 runs before Keshav Maharaj turned in to catch a spooky shot by Ruturaj.
Ruturaj Gaikwad looked strong and in an aggressive mode tonight. Ruturaj managed to score a quick fifty which also was his maiden half-century in the blues.
Keshav Maharaj assists the South Africans to breathe with relief after the Indian openers haunted every bowler who came through.
Drinks breaks have been announced and possibly Shreyas Iyer will be coming out to assist Ishan Kishan who was playing a sensible inning.
Ishan Kishan might take this opportunity to accelerate as the last ten overs can be a good platform for India’s middle order due to which Ishan can smash some bizarre shots.
India has got the start they needed and now it’s just time for the remaining batters to continue and grow with the same fierce performance.
At drinks break, India is batting at 97 for 1.
