IND V SA: Elgar's Incredible Century Puts South Africa In Lead After Rahul’s Hundred Takes India To 245
South Africa: In his final Test on his home ground, veteran opener Dean Elgar kickstarted his farewell series by slamming an incredible century to put South Africa into the lead on day two of the first Test against India at the SuperSport Park on Wednesday.
When bad light stopped play and eventually go into early stumps, South Africa ended the day at a commanding 256/5 in 66 overs, taking a lead of 11 runs over India, who made 245, thanks to KL Rahul converting his overnight score of 70 into 101, his eighth Test ton and second successive one at this venue.
The overcast day belonged to local boy Elgar, who wowed the spectators with a flurry of gorgeous drives, fierce pulls and his famous gritty attitude to be unbeaten on 140 off 211 balls, his 14th century in the format, laced with 23 fours. He also stitched a vital 131-run stand with debutant David Bedingham, who looked rock-solid in his 56, and place South Africa in the drivers’ seat.
