Ind Vs Sa ,3rd Test ,Green Park , Kanpur

This has been a great day at the office for the Indians and they would be very satisfied with the performance they have put up on the field today. The first one and a half session were undoubtedly South Africa's but the last 40 minutes or so of the second session saw a turnaround. The Indians chipped in with quick wickets to pave a comeback for themselves. There wasn't any looking back after that as the hosts bowled well and picked up wickets at regular intervals to strangulate the visitors. It's not that the South Africans would be sad about their opening day's show but it's just that the Indians drove all the momentum in quick time. Job well done by the bowlers and it's time for the batsmen to take up the charge, they failed miserably in the last outing and they would be looking forward to overshadow that with some brilliance.
