India (IND) vs South Africa (SA) 2nd Test Day 5 Live Cricket Score Updates: India have a mountain to climb coming into the 5th and final day of the 2nd Test against South Africa in Guwahati, needing 522 runs to win the match. If they want to go for a draw, that too looks like a steep hill to climb because they have to bat through the whole of the last day, something that their batters looked incapable of in this series.

With South Africa coach Shukri Conrad’s ‘grovel’ comment raising eye brows coming out of Day 4, it remains to be seen if the phrase can spur the hosts into making a dramatic turnaround in the match. Former England captain Tony Grieg had found out the hard way in 1976 when using the word against West Indies and was promptly humbled when the English were thrashed in the series.

At Stumps on day 4, India were in a bit of bother when they lost both their openers early with just 21 on the board. Yashasvi Jaiswal fell trying to play his patented cut shot off Marco Jansen and KL Rahul was cleaned up by a delightful ball by Simon Harmer. With just 8 wickets remaining, the Proteas look to be the overwhelming favourites going into the final day.

Yashasvi Jaiswal refuses to learn from his mistakes, gets out playing the cut shot again
Marco Jansen had already resumed the short-ball barrage before the blinding 3 pm flood-lights began to fog the Indian craniums. It wasn’t exactly the entry point South Africa head coach Shukri Conrad was plotting when he wanted his batters to ruthlessly make India “grovel” (his words this time) on the field on Tuesday. But no matter, Temba Bavuma’s men drew two wickets closer to history.
