In a commanding display, South Africa bolstered their advantage against India on the fourth day of the second Test in Guwahati's Barsapara Cricket Stadium. They amassed 113 runs for the loss of just one wicket in the second session, pushing their overall lead to a formidable 508 runs.

Commencing the session at 107/3, Proteas batters Tristan de Zorzi and Wiaan Mulder demonstrated resilience, forging a critical partnership. Facing tight bowling from India's Kuldeep Yadav and Washington Sundar, de Zorzi showcased skill with an elegant reverse sweep off Sundar, setting a steady pace for the innings.
