Kagiso Rabada and Marco Jansen snared five wickets between them to ensure South Africa won the honours on consecutive days at the Hagley Oval. That idea may have seemed far-fetched given how the day began, but a ninth-wicket stand between Keshav Maharaj and Marco Jansen extended South Africa’s first-innings total after which the same pair broke through New Zealand’s top-order. At stumps, New Zealand were still 207 runs in arrears, but were put back on the recovery path courtesy Colin de Grandhomme’s typically counter-punching half-century.
