1st Test: India Reach 10/2 At Lunch In Pursuit Of 124 Against South Africa
India were the early favourites to make further inroads and take control of the game. But South Africa seized control by adding 60 crucial runs, with skipper Temba Bavuma unbeaten on 55, before being dismissed for 153 in their second innings.
With Marco Jansen taking out Jaiswal and Rahul in a short burst, Washington Sundar (five not out) and Dhruv Jurel (four not out) had to survive a nervy 4.5 overs before the lunch break arrived, as the session ended in the visitors' favour.
