2nd Test: South Africa all out for 258 in 2nd innings

Riding on Vernon Philander&rsquo;s six-wicket haul, South Africa defeated India by 72 runs on Day 4 of the first test in Cape Town, on Monday.

With this win, the Proteas go 1-0 up in the three-Test series against India.

India&#39;s batting order once again fell victim to South Africa&#39;s pace attack in the second innings after&nbsp;skipper Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma were dismissed&nbsp;in quick succession.

After 29 overs, India&#39;s score stood at 82/7 at tea, with 126 more runs required to win the first Test.&nbsp;&nbsp;

The first innings star Hardik Pandya was also dismissed&nbsp;by Rabada, after facing just five balls. &nbsp;

Earlier, openers Murli Vijay, Shikhar Dhawan and C Pujara were also sent back to the pavilion without causing any much damage, scoring 16, 13 and 4 runs respectively.&nbsp;

However, the&nbsp;bowling attack was at its ever best on a foreign soil after they reduced the South African team to mere 130 runs on Day 4 of the first Test match on Monday.

Mohammed Shami and Jasprit Bumrah struck early on Monday to take three wickets each while Bhuvneshwar Kumar claimed two as South Africa were bowled out in their second innings.&nbsp;

They lost 8 wickets and scored just 65 runs in this session, after resuming the day 2 play at 65/2.&nbsp;

The Proteas lost five wickets in quick succession with their score once reaching 95/6 after 34 overs.

India dismissed the opposite team quickly in a bid to salvage any chances of a result.&nbsp;

They now need 208 runs to win this match, after conceding a first inning lead of&nbsp;79,&nbsp;in remaining one and a half day&nbsp;

The day three play was called off after heavy rainfall continued to lash Cape Town on Sunday.

After morning session was washed out, it was assumed that the teams could resume before the scheduled tea interval, as the rain stopped. &nbsp;But it was for less than half an hour.&nbsp;

The first innings for India was quite unfortunate when bowlers did their bit by holding the South African side for 286 but the batting order was shattered by the Proteas pacers when Indian side somehow saved the follow-on.

Mumbai Indians beat KKR by 6 wickets, enter IPL final

Mandeep Singh blasted a quick-fire unbeaten half-century as India crushed Zimbabwe by 10 wickets to level the Twenty20 series on Monday. 
 
The result sets up a series decider in the third and final game that will also be played at the Harare Sports Club on Wednesday. 
 
Zimbabwe won the toss and elected to bat, but could only muster 99 for nine in their 20 overs as the Indian bowlers strangled the run-rate. 
 
The tourists made short work of their reply, racing to their victory target off 13.1 overs as Mandeep Singh (52 from 40 balls) and fellow opener Lokesh Rahul (47 from 40 balls) put on a century stand. 
 
All the Zimbabwe batsmen struggled to score quick runs in their innings with none managing more than a run a ball. Peter Moor (31 from 32 balls) was the only one to muster any sort of resistance. 
 
Debutant seamer Barinder Sran took for wickets to lead the Indian charge, while fellow paceman Jasprit Bumrah picked up three wickets in his four overs. 
 
India also handed a debut to seamer Dhawal Kulkarni, though he was by far the most expensive of the bowlers as his one wicket cost 32 runs.
