I really feel the spinners did a brilliant job and I\u2019m just lucky to be the one who cashed in.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>&#8216;They are absolutely stupid!&#8217; | 01:06<\/p>\n<p>India slumped to 122-7 despite Yashasvi Jaiswal\u2019s 58 as wickets kept tumbling on what still seems like a good pitch to bat on. <\/p>\n<p>Washington Sundar, who made 48, and fellow left-hander Kuldeep Yadav resisted in a partnership of 72 off 208 balls before off-spinner Simon Harmer struck to end Sundar\u2019s defiance. <\/p>\n<p>Jansen then dismissed Kuldeep for 19 off 134 balls and Jasprit Bumrah for five to pack a shell-shocked India off in under three sessions. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere is quite a few ways you can play the game and it\u2019s up to the individuals on what their plans are,\u201d said Sundar. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe just back our plans but at times it doesn\u2019t go our way.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>On the pitch, Sundar said, \u201cIt\u2019s a true wicket and not many days you get to bat on such tracks, especially in India. If you spend time there runs are for the taking.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Earlier, the left-handed Jaiswal lost overnight partner KL Rahul for 22 in the first hour of play before reaching his 13th Test half-century. <\/p>\n<p>Heat vs Stars: WBBL11 Highlights | 13:38<\/p>\n<p>Jaiswal used the sweep to good effect and took on the bowlers, hitting seven fours and one six until his departure off Harmer.<\/p>\n<p>Harmer had Sai Sudharsan caught at mid-wicket for 15 and Jansen removed Dhruv Jurel for a duck to further put India on the back foot at the first break. <\/p>\n<p>The 6ft 8ins (2.03 metres) tall Jansen, who made 93 in South Africa\u2019s imposing first-innings total, used the bouncer to snare the Indian batters with Jurel falling to the pull off a short ball. <\/p>\n<p>Skipper Rishabh Pant fell caught behind for seven to Jansen soon after in the second session and the batting fell apart like nine pins. <\/p>\n<p>Aiden Markram took a stunning catch as he ran from second slip to take a one-handed diving catch to his right to dismiss Nitish Kumar Reddy off Jansen. Reddy made 10. <\/p>\n<p>India&#8217;s Ravindra Jadeja walks back to the pavilion after his dismissal.Source: AFP<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Towering pace spearhead Marco Jansen took six wickets to put South Africa in sight of a first Test&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":281924,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[34],"tags":[1721,101,56,54,55],"class_list":{"0":"post-281923","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-cricket","8":"tag-cricket","9":"tag-sports","10":"tag-uk","11":"tag-united-kingdom","12":"tag-unitedkingdom"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/281923","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=281923"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/281923\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/281924"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=281923"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=281923"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=281923"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
