1st Test: Bumrah, Kuldeep Pick Scalps For India As South Africa Reach 105/3 At Lunch
South Africa: Jasprit Bumrah and Kuldeep Yadav picked three wickets collectively for India to keep South Africa in check as the visitors reached 105/3 in 27 overs at lunch on the first day of the opening Test at the Eden Gardens on Friday.
Bumrah provided the early breakthroughs by removing the opening pair, while Kuldeep added to the pressure by dismissing skipper Temba Bavuma shortly after the drinks interval.
At 71/3, the Proteas looked vulnerable, but Tony de Zorzi (15 not out) and Wiaan Mulder (22 not out) steadied the innings with a composed 34-run stand off 66 balls and ensured no further damage before the lunch break came.
