FOUR! KL Rahul reaches his half-century in style, hitting a four off Lungi Ngidi. Rahul hit nine fours to reach the landmark.

First ball duck for India No. 3 Pujara. A big inside edge onto his thigh and the ball lobs up towards short leg fielder and Keegan Petersen makes no mistake. Lungi Ngidi brings South Africa back into the game with twin strikes.

Successful LBW review for South Africa. It was given 'not out' by the on-field umpire, but Lungi Ngidi was confident and skipper Dean Elgar went for a review. The ball was hitting the top of the leg stump. Mayank Agarwal gone for a superb 60, off 123 balls, hitting nine fours.

Easy picking. Short of length ball on the hip from Lungi Ngidi and Mayank Agarwal (60*) tucks it away towards fine leg for a four.

BOOM! KL Rahul (47*) smashes it towards sweeper cover for a four off Wiaan Mulder. What a shot.

SHOT! KL Rahul (43*) punches it on the backfoot towards sweeper cover for a four off Wiaan Mulder. Superb.

First session of the opening Test belonged to India, with openers putting up a solid partnership for the visitors. Mayank Agarwal (46*) and KL Rahul (29*) took the score to 83 for no loss in 28 overs. The duo started watchfully before setting themselves in and scored runs at a decent rate of 2.96 runs per over. They scored 11 boundaries in the first session. And the only real opportunity for South Africa to take a wicket was the drop chance by wicket-keeper Quinton de Kock of Mayank Agarwal (on 36). Other than that it was all India in the first two hours of the Boxing Day Test in Centurion.
