Rain delayed the start of the third day's play in the first cricket test between South Africa and Pakistan with no play possible before lunch.

Welcome to the live coverage of Day 3 of the first Test between South Africa and Pakistan being played at Supersport Park in Centurion. The second day sure did go to the hosts after Aiden Markram who scored 89 and debutante Corbin Bosch made 81* lead South Africa to 301.

The Green Shirts started off the proceedings on a positive note with Babar Azam completing his 27th fifty before getting removed by Jansen on exactly an 85-ball 50, studded with nine boundaries.
