12:02 Local Time, 07:02 GMT, 12:32 IST: Pakistan have dominated the first session of the game. Masood won today cricket an important toss and chose to bat on a dry surface. Rabada trapped Shafique in front early in the innings but since then, it has been all Pakistan. Imam on return looked solid from the word-go and kept the scoreboard ticking. He has raised a fifty and is looking hungry for more. Masood
started off confidently but there was a phase when he was troubled by the spinners, especially Harmer, but he came out from it safely and is looking at ease once again. The odd ball has turned and gripped and the odd one has kept low but apart from that it has been an easy-paced surface so far. Harmer was the pick of the bowlers for South Africa as he bowled in
good channels and kept the batters on their toes but doesn’t have any success to show for it. Pakistan will look to continue batting this way and move futher ahead. Can South Africa bounce back after the break? Join us in about 35 minutes for the second session
