It was a very big challenge for the young Indian batting line-up to face the brutal South African pace attack.At the start of the 5th day of play Dale Steyn removed Virat kohli and Cheteshwar Pujara early with a fierce pace bowling.
India lost 5 wickets in the first session of play.Spinner Robin Peterson took 4 wickets.Ajinkya Rahane stuck it out to score massively impressive 96 runs.But India kept losing wickets from the other end.
India took a lead of 58 runs to make South Africa bat again in the fourth innings.It took less then 12 over for South African openers to go over the line.
It was a perfect send-off from South African team to their legend Jack Kallis.He must be very pleased with his own performance in the last test match of his career.Though South Africa is the winner, but there was a lot of positive things India can take from this test series as they did not play like underdogs overseas.
