Pathan keeps SA in check

AFP, Bangalore
Seamer Irfan Pathan claimed three wickets in his first four overs as India restricted South Africa to 169-9 from 50 overs in the second one-day international here on Saturday.
The spinners choked the runs on a dry wicket with left-armer Murali Kartik conceding just 16 runs in his 10 overs and Harbhajan Singh and Virender Sehwag finishing with two wickets each.
South Africa, who lead 1-0 in the five-match series, need a win in the day-night game to equal Australia's record 21-match unbeaten streak in limited-overs cricket.
But the tourists were caught flatfooted on the turning track at the Chinnaswamy Stadium, a far cry from the seaming wicket that helped them win the first one-dayer at Hyderabad on Wednes-day.
Andrew Hall's 32 was the top score as wickets tumbled at regular intervals after Indian captain Rahul Dravid won the toss and elected to field on his home ground.
India celebrated Sachin Tendulkar's 356th one-day appearance, which equalled Pakistani Wasim Akram's world record feat, by destroying South Africa's top order.
Pathan had Abraham de Villiers caught at square leg with the fifth delivery of the match and trapped
captain Graeme Smith leg-before for three in his third over.
Pathan struck another vital blow in his next over when jacques Kallis slashed outside the off-stump and was caught behind to make it 20-3.
Hall, who replaced the injured Charl Langeveldt, hit 32 off 43 balls when he was snapped up by Mohammad Kaif at short-leg off Harbhajan's turning delivery.
South Africa plodded their way to 85-4 by the 27th over when Sehwag had Mark Boucher leg-before for 14 with his first ball.
Sehwag got another success in his next over as Ashwell Prince, who appeared set on 30, holed out to long-on in a bid to step up the scoring.
lustin Kemp (28) and Shaun Pollock (29) boosted the total by adding 47 for the seventh wicket.
