Watch India vs South Africa 2nd Test Live StreamingDebutant opener Alviro Petersen cracked an unbeaten half-century to give South Africa a solid start in the second Test against India.
Proteas captain Graeme Smith, declared fit just ahead of the toss, chose to bat first, but contributed little to the total as he was bowled for four by Zaheer Khan at the Eden Gardens.
But Petersen, who came in for Mark Boucher - out following back spasms - hit an unbeaten 57 and put on 107 with one-drop batsman Hashim Amla (49 not out) as South Africa reached lunch on 116 for one.
Smith scored a boundary through midwicket in Zaheer's first over, but was bowled off the last ball in the left-arm seamer's second over with a delivery that nipped back off the seam and sneaked through between bat and pad.
