India head coach Gautam Gambhir was furious with pacer Arshdeep Singh after the left-arm pacer bowled six wide balls in one over. The incident happened in the 11th over of the South African innings. After being hit for a maximum Quinton De Kock, Arshdeep tried to bowl away from the left-hander but ended up bowling wides.

Opener and wicket-keeper batter Quinton de Kock had been on a roll in the second clash in Chandigarh and thrashed Indian bowlers all around the park. He went on to score a half-century and thoroughly dominated the Indian bowlers to help South Africa get a quick start.
Earlier, South Africa were put into bat by India after Suryakumar Yadav won the toss. The hosts lead the five-match series 1-0 after they defeated South Africa by 101 runs in the first encounter.
Covering sports for fun. Cricket in whites remains the first love—the kind that teaches patience, rewards nuance, and tells stories over five days rather than five seconds.
