For South Africa Dean Elgar, Hashim Amla and AB de Villiers were the only batsmen who got into the double figures. De Villiers top scored with 63 and was lucky to get reprieve when he was caught off a no-ball early on in his innings. Also Check- India vs South Africa 1st Test Day 2- As it happened

India then once again got off to a jittery start when Vernon Philander removed Shikhar Dhawan for a duck. The left-hander was out without adding a run in first innings as well and thus got pair against his name.

Murali Vijay and Pujara then continued to build a partnership and gave India the momentum. The duo added 86 for second-wicket before Imran Tahir removed Vijay. The right-hander fell short of his half-century by just three runs. Kohli then joined Pujara and the two led India to safety when play ended on day two with overall lead of 142.
