By Saurabh Sharma October 06, 2019 • 12:21 PM View: 869

Visakhapatnam, Oct 6: India is on the verge of victory in the first of the three-match contest against South Africa as the hosts reduced the visitors to 117/8 at lunch on the fifth and final day at the the ACA-VDCA Stadium here on Sunday.

Off-spinner Ravindra Jadeja was the wrecker-in-chief for India as he sent back four South Africans for 51 runs while Mohammed Shami scalped three wickets on a track that was said to be not suitable for the pacers.
