    Play abandoned at Newlands

    Rain on day three at Newlands Newlands
    Published on January 7, 2018 | Leave a response

    Play was abandoned due to heavy rain on day three of the first Test at Newlands.

    In the end, not a single ball was bowled on day three.

    It rained heavily overnight and throughout the morning at Newlands. It was hoped that the weather would clear after lunch, and at around 13:15 Proteas captain Faf du Plessis and coach Ottis Gibson were seen chatting to the ground staff.

    Unfortunately, the rain returned shortly after that, and play was eventually called off at 15:30.

    Play will resume on Monday at 10:30.

    SA 286 (1st innings) – AB de Villiers 65, Faf du Plessis 62, Bhuvneshwar Kumar 4-87, Ravi Ashwin 2-21
    India 209 (1st innings) – Hardik Pandya 93, Cheteshwar Pujara 26, Vernon Philander 3-33, Kagiso Rabada 3-34
    SA  65-2 (2nd innings) – Aiden Markram 34, Dean Elgar 25, Hardik Pandya 2-17
    South Africa lead by 142 runs
