OUT! Caught & Bowled. Shahbaz Nadeem to Lungi Ngidi. Stock ball half volley, outside off stump on the front foot driving, back to bowler, by Nadeem. What a bizarre way for the Test Match to finish. Ngidi is gone first ball. Tossed up high and wide, tempting the big shot, and the number eleven climbs into it. He smashes a drive back down the ground, but the ball strikes his partner, Nortje, on the full, and it then lobs up kindly into the bowler's hands. Remarkable!That didn't last long at all. Just the two overs needed to finish things off. What a huge victory that is. Rohit Sharma and Ajinkya Rahane piled on the runs in the first innings to put all the pressure on to the visitors, and South Africa were unable to respond. Two disappointing batting displays have got them nowhere near India's total. A brilliant collective bowling performance dismantled the Proteas batting line up twice.So it ends 3-0 to India, and that caps off this tour between these two teams. Very one sided, but some wonderful cricket on show.

OUT! Caught. Shahbaz Nadeem to Theunis de Bruyn. Stock ball back of a length, outside off stump on the front foot driving, inside edge to wicketkeeper, by Saha. Didn't take long for India to strike. The recognised batsman, de Bruyn, is the man to go. Fantastic catch behind the stumps by Saha. The delivery doesn't get up at all. De Bruyn's feet are stuck, and he just wafts the bat out at the ball. A small inside nick, Saha keeps low, and snaps it up at ankle height. Sublime take.

Runs : 0 Bowler: Ravindra Jadeja Wickets : 0
Welcome to Day 4 of this third and final Test Match. Play should not last too long today. The hosts just require two more wickets to wrap up this game, and seal the 3-0 series whitewash. India have been completely dominant across these matches, and fully deserve their huge victories in each game. South Africa showed some fight to stretch it out into today, but that will not be much consolation to them, as it is still going to be an innings defeat. How long will it take for the home side to nip out these remaining two wickets?
Over 46. no runs. Bowler: Ravindra Jadeja. South Africa: 8-132(rr 2.87)

Ravindra Jadeja to Anrich Nortje. Stock length ball, outside off stump on the front foot defending, to silly mid off for no runs, fielded by Jadeja. India require just two more wickets for victory but the light has deteriorated in Ranchi so we will have to come back in the morning. Completing victory should be a formality for the hosts after a day on which 16 South African wickets have fallen. Zubayr Hamza's maiden Test fifty was the only real consolation for the tourists, he played a wide array of gorgeous shots but couldn't kick on to something more substantial. India's fast bowlers were excellent and the spinners provided decent support, putting them on the verge of taking the series 3-0.

Anrich Nortje to Shahbaz Nadeem. Short, outside off stump ducked Leave, Left to wicketkeeper for no runs, fielded by Klaasen. South Africa are taking their time in the field, calling for a helmet to be brought on so Virat Kohli decides enough is enough and waves in his batsmen with the total just short of the 500 mark. Their commanding total was built upon a sensational double century by Rohit Sharma, a classy century by Ajinkya Rahane and some lusty striking down the order. George Linde was a bright spark for the Proteas, picking up four wickets on debut to keep South African spirits up. With the light deteriorating again in Ranchi, the tourists will have their work cut out this evening to defy India's bowling attack.

Ashwin prodded a long way forward and dragged his back foot an inch from the crease, that was all the keeper needed to complete the dismissal.

One shot too many from Rohit, he wanted to carry on the carnage but this bouncer from Rabada is quicker and shorter than anything Ngidi delivered. That made it difficult to get on top of and Rohit could only help it into the hands of fine leg, a simple catch. All the South Africans go to shake Rohit's hand as he departs, recognising the magnificent knock they have witnessed over the last two days. Great sportsmanship from them, lovely to see.

SIX! Lungi Ngidi to Rohit Sharma. Back of a length, outside off stump on the back foot pulling, well timed in the air under control over deep mid wicket for 6 runs. What a way to go to a double century, immense batting by Rohit Sharma. It's a trademark pull shot, clubbed into the jubilant crowd with aplomb. He soaks up the applause from the Indian dressing room and the entire stadium, a moment to savour.

Lunch on Day Two in Ranchi after a wonderful session for India. Rohit Sharma and Ajinkya Rahane carried on where they left off yesterday, stroking boundaries to all parts of the ground as their partnership swelled to 267. Rahane brought up his first home century since 2016 before nicking behind off debutant George Linde, however Rohit has continued to march merrily towards a maiden Test double century. South Africa need a dramatic change in fortune this afternoon to get back into this match, with conditions still suited to batting.

There's the breakthrough, a moment of success for the Proteas out of nowhere. It's a great time for them to strike as well with the second new ball just around the corner. Rahane was starting to accelerate and play an aggressive shot every ball, that has caused his downfall. This delivery bounced more than expected to kiss the top edge, giving Linde his first Test wicket and Klaasen his first Test catch.

Good morning, welcome to coverage of Day Two of the Third Test between India and South Africa in Ranchi. The hosts found themselves in early trouble yesterday as the Proteas made use of helpful conditions, before a commanding and unbroken partnership of 185 between Rohit Sharma and Ajinkya Rahane swung the pendulum firmly towards India. Bad light curtailed proceedings, something the tourists will have been thankful for as they looked tired and flat as the day wore on. They will need to be at their best today or face another marathon stint in the field.
Over 58. 5 runs. Bowler: Anrich Nortje. India: 3-224(rr 3.86)

Anrich Nortje to Ajinkya Rahane. Seaming in back of a length, outside off stump on the back foot defending, to gully for no runs, fielded by Hamza. It has been gloomy for quite some time and the floodlights have been on since Tea but unfortunately it is too dark to carry on. South Africa will be the happier of the two teams as they can make new plans about how they are going to pick up a wicket.That is it for the day. Stumps are called with the light not getting any brighter. India's day overall after a tough start in which they lost three cheap wickets. Rohit Sharma and Ajinkya Rahane came through it and they have moved along to 224-3 with a unbroken 185 run partnership. Century for Rohit in his classy style while Rahane has looked good for 83.For South Africa they weren't able to capitalise on the helpful bowling conditions and then gifted too many runs in the afternoon session. They will be wanting another session tomorrow morning like today to get them back into it. Join us then.

There were some scintillating batting from both batsmen, and Rohit Sharma notched yet another Test century while Rahane is only 26 away. If the next session goes the same way South Africa's early advantage will be all but forgotten.

Anrich Nortje to Rohit Sharma. Length ball, outside off stump on the front foot working, to short mid wicket for no runs, run save by Piedt. Lunch is called on day one. For the first time in the series South Africa have had the upper-hand after losing the toss. Conditions were perfect for swing bowling early on and Kagiso Rabada was on fire with the new ball in his hand. Taking two quick wickets before Anrich Nortje got the big one of Virat Kohli for just 12 runs. The next session is going to be interesting as we will see more spin come into the attack and that is when the Indian batsmen have been able to score freely.

Start of India Innings. The series may already be over but there are World Test Championship points still up for grabs, as well as a piece of history for India. They have never whitewashed South Africa in a Test series. All signs are pointing to an Indian victory in the third Test with their players in form while the visitors lose two to injury, one self-inflicted.Here in Ranchi the conditions are overcast and look good for some early morning bowling, but batting first is usually the norm. South Africa sent out Temba Bavuma for the toss to try and change their fortunes but unfortunately that doesn't work, India win the toss and they choose to bat.Debut for Shahbaz Nadeem as he replaces Ishant Sharma. Plenty of changes in the Proteas side. Heinrich Klaasen and George Linde make their debuts, Lungi Ngidi and Zubayr Hamza along with Dane Piedt come into the XI while Quinton de Kock will give up the gloves and open alongside Dean Elgar.

OUT! L.B.W. Shahbaz Nadeem to Anrich Nortje. Stock length ball, off stump on the front foot working, hit pad to. Up goes the finger in an instant, Nortje reviews but it will be in vain. This skidded on with the arm and the debutant wraps up the innings. Kohli signals upstairs to du Plessis that India will be taking the field again, so the follow-on has been enforced. South Africa will need more of their batsmen to show the intent that Hamza displayed earlier on, as he was the only one to really get going in the first innings.

OUT! Caught. Umesh Yadav to George Linde. Reverse Swing-Out length ball, outside off stump on the front foot driving, outside edge to second slip, by Sharma. Linde's resistance is over thanks to a sharp grab at a wide second slip by Rohit. A combination of the angle across the left-hander and a hint of reverse means the edge is taken, giving Umesh his third wicket of the innings. India are on the verge of taking a massive lead.

FOUR! Ravichandran Ashwin to George Linde. Off break length ball, off stump down the track driving, mis-timed in the air uncontrolled past long on for 4 runs. Linde might just have to go up the gears now with not much batting to come. The bat twisted in his hands as he made contact with this but the commitment to the shot meant it still cleared mid on by a few inches.

OUT! Run Out. Ravichandran Ashwin to Kagiso Rabada. Off break length ball, outside off stump on the front foot driving, to mid off, direct hit by Yadav. Things go from bad to worse for South Africa, now a run out compounds their problems. Rabada hesitated and then set off after a little fumble from Umesh, but the Indian quick was able to quickly recover and nail the stumps direct at the non-striker's end. Everything going wrong for the Proteas.

Ravindra Jadeja to George Linde. Stock length ball, to leg on the back foot working, to short leg for no runs, fielded by Agarwal. That was a fantastic session for India, they have strengthened their grip on this Third Test by picking up 4 wickets. Umesh Yadav got the ball rolling in the very first over of the day with a magical delivery to leave the South African captain helpless. Zubayr Hamza and Temba Bavuma combined for 91 runs to lead a mini fightback, the former making a maiden Test fifty, before three quick wickets to spin set them back again. Shahbaz Nadeem's first Test wicket was sandwiched in between two for the always dependable Ravindra Jadeja, meaning the Proteas are staring down the prospect of a massive first innings deficit.

Umesh Yadav gave India the ideal start by removing Faf du Plessis with a beauty, however since then Zubayr Hamza and Temba Bavuma have scored freely for South Africa in an impressive response.

Good morning, welcome to coverage of Day Three of the Third Test between India and South Africa in Ranchi. The hosts are in a dominant position thanks to Rohit Sharma and Ajinkya Rahane combining for a huge partnership, as well as the fast bowlers making early breakthroughs with the new ball. The visitors will be looking for a spirited response today with the opportunity to bat long and the chance of more bad light taking time out of the match later this evening. With crucial World Test Championship points on the line there will be no let up in intensity despite the series already belonging to India.

Shahbaz Nadeem to Faf du Plessis. Stock length ball, off stump on the front foot defending, to short leg for no runs, fielded by Saha. It's become very dark in Ranchi, the floodlights are on but they have taken over from the natural light so the umpires are taking the players off. Hopefully it improves soon so we can get some more play this evening. India will be delighted to have taken two quick wickets in that little spell of action. That's all for today I'm afraid, the battle will resume in the morning with South Africa needing something special to fight back into the match. The highlight of today was Rohit Sharma's maiden Test double century, a superb innings full of quality shots. He was ably supported by Ajinkya Rahane, who made a classy century of his own, plus some strong hitting by the lower order. Virat Kohli declared on the stroke of tea with India on 9-497, leaving the tourists to face the new ball in the evening gloom. Mohammed Shami and Umesh Yadav made a breakthrough apiece with a pair of brutal short balls, leaving the Proteas precariously poised at 9-497.

OUT! Caught & Bowled. Shahbaz Nadeem to Lungi Ngidi. Stock ball half volley, outside off stump on the front foot driving, back to bowler, by Nadeem. What a bizarre way for the Test Match to finish. Ngidi is gone first ball. Tossed up high and wide, tempting the big shot, and the number eleven climbs into it. He smashes a drive back down the ground, but the ball strikes his partner, Nortje, on the full, and it then lobs up kindly into the bowler's hands. Remarkable!That didn't last long at all. Just the two overs needed to finish things off. What a huge victory that is. Rohit Sharma and Ajinkya Rahane piled on the runs in the first innings to put all the pressure on to the visitors, and South Africa were unable to respond. Two disappointing batting displays have got them nowhere near India's total. A brilliant collective bowling performance dismantled the Proteas batting line up twice.So it ends 3-0 to India, and that caps off this tour between these two teams. Very one sided, but some wonderful cricket on show.

Welcome to Day 4 of this third and final Test Match. Play should not last too long today. The hosts just require two more wickets to wrap up this game, and seal the 3-0 series whitewash. India have been completely dominant across these matches, and fully deserve their huge victories in each game. South Africa showed some fight to stretch it out into today, but that will not be much consolation to them, as it is still going to be an innings defeat. How long will it take for the home side to nip out these remaining two wickets?

Ravindra Jadeja to Anrich Nortje. Stock length ball, outside off stump on the front foot defending, to silly mid off for no runs, fielded by Jadeja. India require just two more wickets for victory but the light has deteriorated in Ranchi so we will have to come back in the morning. Completing victory should be a formality for the hosts after a day on which 16 South African wickets have fallen. Zubayr Hamza's maiden Test fifty was the only real consolation for the tourists, he played a wide array of gorgeous shots but couldn't kick on to something more substantial. India's fast bowlers were excellent and the spinners provided decent support, putting them on the verge of taking the series 3-0.

The ball jagged back into the right-hander to sneak past the inside edge and would've smashed the stumps out of the ground. Yet another South African batsman departs for a single figure score.

OUT! Bowled. Mohammed Shami to Zubayr Hamza. Seaming away length ball, off stump on the front foot defending, missed to.

FOUR! Umesh Yadav to Dean Elgar. In-swinging back of a length, down leg side on the back foot working, leading edge past third man for 4 runs. Elgar gets his first runs of the match in very streaky fashion. His eyes were looking through mid wicket while the ball scooted low through gully at a catchable height. Fortune for the left-hander.

OUT! Bowled. Umesh Yadav to Quinton de Kock. Seaming away length ball, to leg on the front foot defending, hit pad to. Off stump goes cartwheeling towards the keeper, that is an absolute peach of a delivery from Umesh Yadav. He punches the air and gets mobbed by his teammates, they know this is pretty special. It jagged across de Kock at high pace, brushing the back pad with the bat no where near it. The crowd is loving this.

NEW BALL. FOUR! Mohammed Shami to Quinton de Kock. Out-swinging half volley, outside off stump on the front foot driving, outside edge in the air uncontrolled past third man for 4 runs. Wow, what a start to the second innings. It's wide and swinging even wider yet de Kock still has a go at it, recklessly throwing his hands at the ball and getting lucky as it soars over the slips.
