    Published on

    KL Rahul made 101 before India were bowled out for 245 on the second day of the first Test against South Africa in Centurion on Wednesday.

    India added 37 runs to their overnight total of 208-8 after rain delayed the start of play by 25 minutes.

    Rahul advanced from his score of 70, reaching his eighth Test century – and second in successive Tests in Centurion – off 133 balls when he hit Gerald Coetzee for six over midwicket.

    He hit four sixes and 14 fours before he was last man out, bowled by Nandre Burger.
