    CAPE TOWN, South Africa (Reuters) – An undefeated century from Alviro Petersen helped South Africa reach 252 for three after they had skittled an embattled New Zealand for 45 on a spectacular opening day of the first Test yesterday.

    New Zealand, dogged by the controversy surrounding the sacking of former captain Ross Taylor, capitulated to the South African pace attack with their innings lasting 19.2 overs as fast bowler Vernon Philander completed remarkable figures of five for seven.
    “Hearing on Monday that I was fit to play really spurred me on, and I always love playing at Newlands. It’s my home crowd and my home venue, and this is where I love to play my cricket so I’m very happy,” Philander, who recovered from a hamstring tweak to play, told reporters.
    Morne Morkel and Dale Steyn cleaned up the tail, the latter picking up his 300th Test scalp and South Africa’s perfect day was complete when all-rounder Jacques Kallis passed the milestone o

    South Africa out to defend No. 1 spot against Australia

    BRISBANE, Australia: South Africa captain Graeme Smith wants to keep the anniversary of Australia’s humiliating capitulation for 47 fresh in the minds of the home side at the opening Brisbane Test today.

    It will be almost 12 months to the day when the Proteas skittled the Australians for their lowest total against South Africa at Newlands on the way to a crushing eight-wicket win.

    Smith didn’t miss the opportunity of reminding Michael Clarke’s Australians of their day of ignominy on the eve of the first of three Tests between the top-ranked South Africa and the number three Aussies.

    Pace duo Dale Steyn and Vernon Philander rocked the Australians in Cape Town and are threatening to wreak similar havoc on a greenish Gabba pitch, where South Africa last played in 1963.

    “(Coach Kirsten) Gary’s daughter is turning one tomorrow and she was born on that day. It’s quite easy to remember,” Smith said yesterday.
