India head into the final day of the second Test against South Africa with a daunting challenge and the real possibility of another home series defeat. Set a target of 549, they will resume at 27/2, still 522 runs away and already without openers Yashasvi Jaiswal and KL Rahul. The Indian lineup will need exceptional grit and discipline to even force a draw in Guwahati, while South Africa stand on the brink of only their second Test series triumph on Indian soil.
Talking about Day 4, Tristan Stubbs top-scored with a fine 94, supported by important contributions from Tony de Zorzi and Wiaan Mulder. Aiden Markram and Ryan Rickelton added valuable runs at the top as well. For India, Ravindra Jadeja claimed four wickets, while Washington Sundar chipped in with one.
