Wet weather consumes second day in a row

South Africa were a day closer to saving the Test after play on third day was called off at 11.30am. For a second day in a row not a single ball was bowled as the wet weather coming into Bangalore from India's east coast kept players indoors. It was just a steady drizzle that has hardly stopped since it began early on the second morning. Forecast for Tuesday wasn't much better either, which all but guarantees less than a full day's play on the fourth day.

After bowling South Africa out for 214 on the first day, India were 80 for 0 at stumps, the last bit of action this Test saw.
