Jasprit Bumrah’s exceptional five-wicket haul (5-27) propelled India to a dominant position on day one of the opening Test against South Africa at Eden Gardens, where the visitors were bowled out for just 159 runs. South Africa, starting with a promising 57 runs, collapsed after Bumrah’s breakthrough, with notable contributions from Aiden Markram (31) and Ryan Rickelton (23). India ended the day at 1-37, with KL Rahul and Washington Sundar at the crease, while South Africa missed their pace leader Kagiso Rabada due to injury. Despite an early wicket, India remains well-placed in their innings.
