David Warner scored a half century as Australia scored 98/1 at lunch on Day 1 of the second Test vs South Africa cricket team on Friday. Vernon Philander took the wicket of Aussie opener Cameron Bancroft (38). South Africa and Australia cricket team will be keen to mellow down hostilities in the second Test of the four-match series at St George’s Park in Port Elizabeth. Steve Smith and Co. won the opening match by 118 runs. The win maintained Australia’s Test dominance in South Africa but was overshadowed by spats both on and off the field involving Australian vice-captain David Warner and Proteas wicketkeeper batsman Quinton de Kock. Both Warner and De Kock were penalised by the International Cricket Council (ICC). With the hosts looking for a win to level the series, things could turn hot again in the second Test.
