The wicket was customized for the pacers. Perhaps the 2nd innings will be different. Sehwag will come good. But Laxman and Dravid will be the danger men here

India 136 & 190/2 (44.1 ov)
South Africa 620/4d
India trail by 294 runs with 8 wickets remaining
Stumps - Day 3
Jacques Kallis finally cracked his maiden double century with 201*.
AB de Villiers scores fastest ever Test century for South Africa
AB de Villiers scored the quickest test century by a South African on Saturday when he reached his hundred from 75 deliveries on the third day of the first test against India.

At lunch De Villiers, who scored a national record 278 not out against Pakistan last month, had reached 119 not out from 94 ball as South Africa extended their first innings to 591 for three in reply to India's 136.

The previous record of 95 deliveries was shared by Denis Lindsay (versus Australia 1966/67), Jonty Rhodes (v West Indies, 1998/99) and Shaun Pollock (v Sri Lanka 2000/01).
