Mike Haysman has a pitch report and he says "there's nothing too wrong with it at all". He thinks it was "pretty average batting" from Sri Lanka, and that the South Africans will be happy to come out and bat again.

MYSTYX: "83 balls played by the SL for getting Allout is the lowest in last 100 years and Second lowest overall (75 balls by SA vs Eng is the lowest in June, 1924)."

2.03pm So safe to say records have tumbled then. Wow. This is now comfortably Sri Lanka's lowest ever score in a Test innings - their previous lowest being 71 against Pakistan in 1994 in Kandy. It's also the lowest ever total at Kingsmeade, as well as the lowest ever Test score against South Africa beating New Zealand's 45 all out in 2013 at Cape Town. Marco Jansen was hands down the star of the show, finishing on astounding figures of 7 for 13 in 6.5 overs, with Sri Lanka themselves only having faced 13.5 overs in total - that's 83 legal deliveries in total. But how to describe that innings? Great bowling for sure, but Sri Lanka were all at sea in terms of their strategy and execution. Several wickets given away with some poor shot selection, but South Africa hardly put a foot wrong with the ball. And now, from what was deemed a dismal batting display themselves, they are in command of this Test.

Ramapriya: "The batters of both teams are doing their best to make up for the time lost on the first day" --- Sri Lanka definitely ahead on those stakes.

Raheel: "India's record is safe"

Abdullah with the top tier gallows humour: "Even today kamindu is the top scorer for Sri Lanka. "

Vishwa Fernando is the new man, in at the non-striker's end

Prakash : "And someone told good batting conditions today…" --- Better batting conditions, Prakash. Small but crucial difference.
