SPORT LD SA 4 LAST

Earlier, Petersen, who made his way into the side after
becoming the highest run scorer in the history of South
Africa's four-day domestic competition last season with 1376
runs in his kitty, made it memorable day with a century in his
first Test.

The right-handed opener, who replaced injured
wicketkeeper Mark Boucher, survived a couple of close LBW
appeals, especially one from Mishra, when he was on 47.
With Amla giving him fine support at the other end,
Petersen grew in confidence.
Amla also made hay under a hazy sun as he carried on from
his unbeaten 253 from in the first Test to notch up one more
Test century.
Amla played a perfect ally to the rookie Petersen as the
duo made Indian bowlers sweat before the turnaround after tea
happened with South Africa losing seven wickets in 26 overs
adding just 38 runs to the total. PTI TAP
