2nd Test: England ride bowlers' effort to reduce SA to 215/8

By Saurabh Sharma January 04, 2020 • 23:28 PM View: 1089

Cape Town, Jan 4: Some disciplined bowling by the England bowlers saw South Africa being reduced to 215/8 when Day 2 of the ongoing second Test ended here on Saturday even as opener Dean Elgar and Rassie van der Dussen showed some fightback with their 88 and 68-run contribution respectively.

The hosts were reeling at 40/3 at one stage however, it was Elgar and der Dussen who played some sensible cricket in the middle and forged a 117-run partnership for the fifth wicket to repair the damage.
