First test started today, following South Africa's 3-2 ODI series win.
Debut for Rabada, whose maiden wicket was Kohli's. Thanks to four wickets by part-time spinner Elgar, SA got India out for 202, but are 28/2 at the end of day 1.
I think SA will need a big innings from one of their upper order bats, because that tail is very long. AB de Villiers has a great record in India, but I reckon we might get something from Amla.
This is shaping up to be a fascinating test which will be dominated by spin.
