It's just 2 days into the 2nd Test and we may get a result soon. India ended Day 2 of the Wanderers Test at 85/2, leading South Africa by 58 runs.

Shardul Thakur was the star of the day as his record-breaking figures of 7/61 helped India bowl out the Proteas for 229. They though managed to secure a 27-run 1st innings lead. India lost KL Rahul and Mayank Agarwal cheaply but for a change, Pujara ad Rahane dropped anchor. While Pujara adopted a positive approach and is unbeaten on 35, Rahane remained not out on 11.

It will be interesting to see if the out of form duo capitalise on the opportunity and help India finish at a safe total.
