KL Rahul won a strong first day for the Indian team in the Centurion game, as the visitors ended 90 games with a score of 272/3. Rahul remained undefeated in 122 games, and Ajinkya Rahane (a player whose position in Test XI before the start of the game was uncertain) was impressive as he reached 40*. Earlier in the day, Mayank Agarwal also lashed out for half a century (60), because the opener added 117 times to the first wicket. Pujara (0) continued to disappoint, and India captain Virat Kohli (35) loosely gave up his wicket after a strong start. For South Africa, Lungi Ngidi chose all three wickets. Earlier, India won the toss and chose to hit the ball. Kohli was heartbroken again. He had a good start to the game, but a large number of penalty kicks eventually forced him to chase the pass outside. The thick outer edge is grasped by the first sliding.
