Hashim Amla posted 159 as South Africa reached an imposing first-innings total of 540 on day two of the first Test against India at MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chepauk, Chennai on Thursday, 27th March 2008. India replied strongly with 82/0 in 21 overs at the end of day 2.
Amla's superb innings spanned 262 balls and ended only with a run out, but there was still time for Boucher, who made 70, and Morne Morkel, with a brisk 35, to flog sagging spirits before Harbhajan Singh returned to mop up the tail and finish with 5 for 164.
India has to go a long way on the 3rd day of the match in order to save the test. Sehwag is looking in fine touch with unbeaten 52 runs well supported by Jaffer playing on 25 runs.
