Notably, the start of Day 1 was delayed by 30 minutes due to wet patches in the outfield at SuperSports Park. Given the heavy overnight rainfall, the outfield is expected to be soggy; thus, the match's start on Day 2 might be delayed. 

The Day 2 proceedings of the India vs South Africa 1st Test will start at 1:30 PM IST. 

At rain-forced stumps on Day 1, India were 208 for 8 in 59 Overs, with KL Rahul unbeaten on a 105-ball 70 and Mohammed Siraj yet to open his account after facing ten balls.



 


India has never won a Test series in South Africa; this is the team's ninth attempt to win a series. 

The India vs South Africa two-match Test series is part of ICC World Test Championship 2023-25. India are currently at the top of WTC points table, followed by Pakistan and New Zealand.
