Fourth Test: India rebuilds after losing Vijay

New Delhi, Dec 3 (IBNS) After a slow start here on Thursday, India lost opener Murli Vijay in the morning of the day one of the fourth Test match against South Africa, but held on to post 60 runs before the lunch break.

Winning the toss, the Indian openers batted cautiously to score  30 runs before Vijay was induced into a shot by Dane Piedt, that took an edge of his bat and was caught by South African skipper Hashim Amla, who was standing at first slip.

Shikher Dhawan, who has had a bad run throughout the series, solidified his defense as the southpaw played 71 balls for his 31 runs (not out).

Cheteshwar Pujara tonked a full toss from Imran Tahir into the stands and is unbeaten at 14.
