India have taken a slight edge at the end of the first day in the second Test against South Africa in Guwahati. Kuldeep Yadav's three wickets and some strong bowling from the others left South Africa 247/6 at the end of the opening day at the Barsapara Cricket Stadium, Guwahati.

The pitch seemed to have something in it for everyone. The early moisture kept the fast bowlers interested but once it went away after an hour, the batters cashed in to score runs.

But there was some spin on offer too with the Indian spinners getting purchase when the surface seemed to flatten out as the day progressed. Kuldeep starred with the ball with his three wickets, while Ravindra Jadeja took one too. Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj also entered the wickets' column with their strikes.
