India vs South Africa, 1st Test

December 18, 2006

Zaheer Khan celebrates with team mates after claiming the wicket of Mark Boucher on day four of the first Test in Johannesburg on Monday.

India bowled out South Africa for 278 in their second innings to win the match by 123 runs and register their first Test victory in South Africa.

The Test will be remembered for Sourav Ganguly's return to the national fold with aplomb after being in the wilderness for nearly a year.

Ganguly hit an unbeaten 51 in the first innings to propel India to 249, while in the second innings it was VVS Laxman (73) who held the innings together to take the visitors to 236 and handy lead of 401.
