India pacers, Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj, took a back seat, and the spin attack, which consists of Ravindra Jadeja, Washington Sundar, and Kuldeep Yadav, led the charge on Day 4, bowling long spells in testing conditions. The spinners bowled 62.3 overs and picked five wickets, but struggled to consistently break through as South Africa’s middle order, led by Stubbs, Zorzi, and Wiaan Mulder, rotated the strike and frustrated the India bowling attack.
Other hand, Bumrah, Siraj, and Nitish Kumar Reddy combined to bowl 15 overs together while conceding 65 runs, the spinners shouldered the bulk of the workload, showcasing stamina and discipline despite the mounting pressure from South Africa’s resilient batting lineup.
