South Africa were 226 for 7 in its first innings against India, on day 3 of the Johannesburg Cricket Test today, when reports last came in. Earlier, the hosts resumed play at the overnight score of 213 for 6. India's pace bowlers staged a dramatic turnaround with a superb exhibition of swing bowling as South Africa suffered a stunning collapse to leave the first cricket Test more or less on an even keel last night. Ishant Sharma claimed 3 wickets while Mohammed Shami took 2. Zaheer Khan bagged two wickets. Earlier the visitors were bundled out for 280 in their first innings. For the hosts, Vernon Philander claimed 4 wickets while Morne Morkel took three wickets.
