Live Cricket Score of South Africa vs Pakistan, 2nd Test, Day 1

Stumps - South Africa 123/2

Shan Masood was given the final over by Sarfraz and guess what? He has picked up a wicket off the last ball of the day. Markram has batted beautifully but he couldn't have done anything about this delivery. It pitched on a shortish length and didn't bounce at all. Imagine on this surface you get a ball that's keeping low. What a way to end the day. South Africa will be very pleased with their efforts though. It's been a top day! They just trail by 54 runs now.

50 for Markram

The man is trying to play as straight as possible. He has hit some delightful shots this innings and has reached his fifty off just 64 balls. Markram is looking in ominous touch and Pakistan will have to get rid of him as early as possible.

Amir strikes

South Africa had made a really good start adding more than 50 for the opening wicket and just when it appeared as if the shoulders would drop down, Amir strikes. The bounce does the trick as Elgar edges one behind. Amla is the new man in. Can he carry on from that second innings fifty or will the lean run continue?
