NEW DELHI: Aiden Markram showcased the most combative hundred of his career, but a vintage morning spell by Jasprit Bumrah kept India firmly on course for a series-levelling win against South Africa at lunch on day two of the second Test in Cape Town on Thursday.
Markram adopted an aggressive approach, smashing his way to 106 off just 103 balls. Despite his heroic effort, the Proteas were bundled out for 176 in 36.5 overs, right at the stroke of lunch. This left India with a victory target of 79 on a spicy pitch.
