India Stumbles on Day 4 Against South Africa: Rahul, Jaiswal Fail as Hosts Face Possible 2-0 Series Whitewash

Guwahati, Day 4 – India’s hopes of salvaging the second Test against South Africa are fading fast, as the hosts were reduced to 27/2 chasing a massive 549-run target on a challenging fourth-day pitch.

Opener KL Rahul struggled for form, managing just six runs before succumbing to spinner Simon Harmer, whose sharp turn rattled the stumps and sent the batsman back to the pavilion. Rahul’s early dismissal set the tone for a batting collapse that has left India under severe pressure.

Meanwhile, Yashasvi Jaiswal showed a flash of aggression with a spectacular six off pacer Marco Jansen but fell shortly after for 13 runs, caught behind attempting another cut shot. The early wickets have left the Indian lineup reeling, facing the real possibility of a series whitewash.

South Africa’s disciplined bowling and commanding lead have put them firmly in control, with India now staring at a humbling defeat unless a remarkable turnaround occurs in the remaining innings.
