 At lunch, in their reply, South Africa had moved to 48 for one as opener Alviro Petersen was unbeaten on 26. Dean Elgar fell in the final over before lunch, lbw for eight to Jason Holder.

Meanwhile, 15 wickets fell in a bowlers' blitz as Sri Lanka ended the day one of the second Test at 78-5, after New Zealand scored 221.
