South Africa Women: South Africa Women rode on a 93-run partnership between Sune Luus and Marizanne Kapp to reach 236/4 after India Women capitalised on a 143-run stand between Harmanpreet Kaur and Richa Ghosh to declare their first innings for a record 603/6 on the second day of the one-off Test here on Saturday.

In what is developing into a cat-and-mouse game, off-spinner Sneh Rana struck three vital blows for 61 runs and Deepti Sharma bagged 1-40 as South Africa stitched a couple of good partnerships that helped the visitors come up with a good response to the fall of wickets.

Sune Luus scored a vital 65 and with Kapp holding forth with a score of 69 not out, South Africa showed their determination to make things difficult for the hosts, who are looking to score their third successive Test win at home.
