GUWAHATI, India (AP) — Wrist spinner Kuldeep Yadav picked 3-48 as South Africa finished at 247-6 in 81.5 overs on the first day of the second cricket test against India on Saturday.

Tristan Stubbs top-scored with 49 off 112 balls, as the Proteas lost four wickets in the final session to concede and advantage gained in the first two sessions on a decent batting surface.

Skipper Temba Bavuma also scored 41 off 92 balls, adding 84 runs for the third wicket with Stubbs.

Play was called off in the late afternoon because of bad light, with 8.1 overs yet to be bowled.

At stumps, Senuran Muthusamy was unbeaten on 25 runs with Kyle Verreynne (1 not out) for company.

Earlier, South Africa had won the toss and opted to bat, reaching 82-1 at tea after the morning session.
