At the end of the opening day of 1st test match, South Africa’s celebrated show of Graeme Smith’s 100th Test as captain has been stolen by Pakistan as they bowled out the home team for 253.

The local fans expected Smith to make his 32nd birthday a memorable one but the Pakistan offspinner Mohammad Hafeez became the unpredicted hero. Hafeez took two wickets of key middle-order players before treating the tail with ease to finish at 4 for 16. Afterwards as opener, he scored all of Pakistan’s runs as the visitors were on 6-0 at stumps.

Earlier, Smith won the toss and chose to bat, but Pakistan’s bowlers made their way to take wickets during different sessions and finally claiming six wickets in the afternoon. Out of all South Africa’s top six batsmen, Jacques Kallis’s 50 remained to be the highest score against persistent bowling attack.

Pakistan’s pace attackers faced some trouble to grab some wicket in the opening hour. However, with the passage of time they get used to the conditions and dismissed both Smith and the opening partner, Alviro Petersen in few deliveries. Kallis and Hashim Amla built good partnership, but Pakistan’s bowlers maintained their discipline and found excellent support from their fielders to break a crucial stand.

First, Asad Shafiq took a superb diving catch of Kallis at deep midwicket off Umar Gul, and then Azhar Ali caught well Amla, on 37off Younis Khan. South Africa made a comeback with a 64-run stand between AB de Villiers and Faf du Plessis, before Hafeez entered to have De Villiers caught behind with his very first delivery. Du Plessis played on off Junaid Khan shortly after to depart for 41, before South Africa’s lower order folded quickly in the face of the second new ball, adding just 23 runs for the final four wickets.

Pakistan’s batting innings started to face only a couple of tricky overs at the end, but Hafeez along with his opening partner Nasir Jamshed played smoothly to make it Pakistan’s day.
