SA vs IND 2nd Test day 1 lunch: Intimidating spell from Siraj sends South Africa in tatters, all out for 55
Things haven’t been pleasant for South Africa on day one in their ongoing second Test match against India after India bowled them out for the subdued total of 55 in their first innings. India are completely dominating the host with bowlers doing a fantastic job. Siraj claimed six wickets while Bumrah and Mukesh Kumar returned with two wicket each to bowl out South Africa at the earliest. South Africa lost their openers Aiden Markram and Dean Elgar for (2) and (4) respectively that dwindled the momentum for them as they went on to lose their wickets at regular intervals. At the stroke of lunch, South Africa lost their final wicket in the form of Kagiso Rabada. Post lunch, India would look forward to amassing a mammoth total to continue their dominance over South Africa.
Earlier, South Africa decided to bat after winning the toss in the second Test match against India that is to get underway at Cape Town. Going into the second game, both teams have made changes to their playing XI. India have brought in Ravindra Jadeja and Mukesh Kumar in place of R Ashwin and Shardul Thakur respectively.
South Africa, on the other hand have included Lungi Ngidi, Keshav Maharaj and Tristan Stubbs. South Africa are already leading the two-match series 1-0 after winning the first game. India are looking forward to having their huge comeback to level the series 1-1.
