Johannesburg Test: India to resume first innings against S Africa

Team India will resume its first innings at the overnight score of 255 for 5 against South Africa, on day 2 of the Johannesburg cricket Test today. When stumps were drawn yesterday, Ajinkhya Rahane on 43 and Skipper MS Dhoni on 17 were at the crease.After opting to bat first, India got off to a nervy start, losing both the openers early. However, Virat Kohli's superb knock of 119 steadied the visitors' ship and India was able to cross the 250-mark on day 1. The four pacers of South Africa, Dale Steyn, Morne Morkel, Vernon Philander and Jacques Kallis bagged a wicket each.This is the first test of the 2-match series. The second test will be played at Durban from the 26th of this month.
