South Africa ended the first day of the second Test at St George’s Park in Gqeberha on 269/7, with Ryan Rickelton’s maiden Test century leading the batting charge. His 133, built around key partnerships with captain Temba Bavuma (78) and Kyle Verreynne (48), steadied the Proteas ship after early setbacks. Initially, the tides were in favour of South Africa, but Sri Lanka fought back late. Lahiru Kumara led the Lankans' bowling attack with 3 wickets, while Asitha Fernando took 2, dismissing Rickelton and Marco Jansen just before the close. (Streaming | More Cricket News)
