Broad strikes twice to put England on top at Newlands
CAPE TOWN - Opener Dean Elgar struck a gritty unbeaten half-century to quell an early England charge as South Africa posted 141 for three at tea on second day of the second test at Newlands on Saturday.
Elgar has a reputation as a dogged accumulator of runs and played to type to move to 77 not out, his 14th test half-century to go with 12 hundreds. He had debutant opener Pieter Malan caught by Joe Root at first slip for five, the South African providing no footwork in his maiden innings on his home ground.
