first Test

SA in charge against Sri Lanka

The day started well enough for the touristsĀ as they took South Africa's remaining four first-innings wickets for just 19 runs to dismiss the hosts for 286; Suranga Lakmal (5-63) claiming a first Test five-for.

But the tourists' top-order flopped, with three further wickets falling before lunch to make it seven for the session, in stark contrast to the six in total on day one.
