South Africa vs India: In the ongoing Cape Town test, India has set a target of 212 runs in front of the hosts. As usual, on day 3 the players were seen engaging in verbal battles, and while team India was fielding, there was a moment when Indian captain Virat Kohli and spinner Ravi Ashwin started venting out their anger on the stump mic.
On the last ball of the 23rd over, Ravichandran Ashwin appealed for an LBW against South African captain Dean Elgar. Umpire Marais Erasmus adjudged the batter out, and Elgar went for the review. In the replay, it was shown that the ball was missing wickets, going over the off-stump.
