Hashim Amla got off to a positive start on Day 2.

Dean Elgar also continued from where he left off on Day 1, registering his maiden 150.

Hashim Amla registered his 27th Test ton, equalling Graeme Smith for the second most hundreds for South Africa after Jacques Kallis.

Hashim Amla fell against the run of play, falling for 137 soon after the lunch interval.

It was a disappointing end to Dean Elgar's marathon innings as he fell one short of a double ton.

Mushfiqur Rahim was dropped twice off Keshav Maharaj but the bowler had the last laugh.
