Duminy, du Plessis push South Africa to 220

Cape Town: JP Duminy (52) and debutant Faf du Plessis (60) scored risk-free half centuries before Indian bowlers made a remarkable comeback in the final batting powerplay to bowl out South Africa for 220 in third cricket one-dayer here today.
Electing to bat, Graeme Smith made a patient 43 off 79 balls before Duminy and du Plessis steadied South Africa’s ship with a 110-run fifth wicket stand that came off 125 balls after they were down 90 for four at one stage.
But the highlight of the day was the disciplined Indian bowling attack. Credit should go to the Indian new ball pair ofd Zaheer Khan (3/43) and Munaf Patel (2/42) , who made life difficult for the South African batsmen from the word go in what looked as a flat Newlands track.
