    "editor1": "<p><strong>Ranchi, Oct 21:&nbsp;<\/strong>&nbsp;India wicketkeeper Wriddhiman Saha took a blow on the ring finger of his left hand on Monday and was replaced by Rishabh Pant as India inched closer to a 3-0 series whitewash on Day 3 of the third Test here.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Saha was hit on his finger by a Ravichandran Ashwin delivery in the 27th over of South Africa&#39;s second dig and the 34-year old stumper was seen in some pain before walking off the field. Saha&#39;s finger was already taped and after copping further blow, he could not continue.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Pant, who did not play a Test in this series, came on to replace him.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;Wriddhiman Saha has been replaced by Rishabh Pant who has taken a blow right on the end of the gloves,&quot; a BCCI tweet said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Saha has been brilliant in this series behind the stumps, especially in the second Test in Pune where he took a couple of excellent catches. The Bengal stumper has previously been out of the team due to a long injury layoff.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The visitors are on the brink of another embarrasing defeat as they got bowled out for a mere 162 in their first innings in reply to India&#39;s 497\/9 declared. In the second innings, Proteas are again in trouble having lost six wickets when the story was being written.<br \/>\r\n&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n",
