The intensity of OfficialCSA's fast bowlers once again proved too much for the windiescricket batsmen to handle as the tourists grabbed control of the second Test. Proteas WIvSA By shockerhess | IOLsport

Given they have to win to tie the series, the home team will need their bowlers to get them back in the contest, by bowling out the South Africans cheaply the second time around, and then hope that the Proteas’ bowlers slip from the high standards they have maintained thusfar in the series.

South Africa’s bowling initially was perhaps not as accurate as they would have liked, but they put enough balls in the right places to get wickets. Lungi Ngidi had a difficult start, but got one delivery to seam back into the left handed Kieran Powell trapping him lbw, while Anrich Nortje got Roston Chase to misjudge a slick off the hips to Kyle Verreynne at deep short leg.

South Africa’s captain Dean Elgar, immediately replaced Ngidi with Rabada, and in a spell of high quality fast bowling, the Proteas’ spearhead dissected the former West Indies captain, Jason Holder’s technique outside the off-stump. While Holder drove elegantly through the covers on occasion, he never had control over proceedings, and eventually edged a drive to Keegan Petersen in the gully.
