Stand-in Indian captain Rishabh Pant has shown some attacking gameplay with a slip and short leg in position to mount some pressure on the batters. He has also been spotted brutally scolding youngster Yashasvi Jaiswal for a poor show in the attacking fielding position.
The pitch conditions in the Guwahati Stadium have been very different from what they were at the Eden Gardens. This pitch has turn, bounce, carry, and every element that makes it an ideal red-ball track.
The Proteas have also made great use of the conditions here in Guwahati, as almost every batter in the South African batting order contributed significantly to take their innings past the 400-run mark.
