CAPE TOWN (Reuters) - South Africa will focus on fixing their batting ahead of the third test against India starting in Nagpur on Nov. 25 after escaping the second match with a draw as the final four days were completely washed out by rain.

The Proteas, who trail 1-0 in the four-game series, have managed just 507 runs in three completed innings in the first two tests as they repeatedly failed to find a way to counter India’s spin threat.
