In Pics: Shami joins 200 Test-wicket club as India tighten grip in first South Africa Test

India seamer Mohammed Shami claimed his 200th Test wicket and completed figures of 5-44 as hosts South Africa were bowled out for 197 on the third day of the first Test on Tuesday. (AP Photo)

India reached 16 for one in their second innings at the close, a lead of 146 that already looked imposing for the home side on a Centurion Park wicket that will get harder to bat on. (AP Photo)

First-innings centurion KL Rahul (five not out) and nightwatchman Shardul Thakur (four) will resume on the fourth day trying to quickly move to a score that allows India to declare and have enough time to bowl the home side out again. (AP Photo)

Mayank Agarwal (four) was the only wicket to fall in India's second innings as he edged debutant left-arm seamer Marco Jansen to wicketkeeper Quinton de Kock. Eighteen wickets fell on the third day after no play was possible on Monday due to rain. (Reuters Photo)

Shami led the Indian attack with a superb bowling display, eking out every ounce of assistance from the helpful conditions. His haul included the wicket of South Africa's top-scorer Temba Bavuma, who had reached 52 when he edged to wicketkeeper Rishabh Pant. (AFP Photo)

Bavuma put on 72 for the fifth wicket with De Kock (34) before the latter tried to guide a Thakur (2-51) delivery through gully but succeeded only in playing onto his own stumps. (Reuters Photo)

All the Indian seamers were among the wickets, Jasprit Bumrah (2-16) weighing in despite rolling his ankle and being forced to leave the field. He returned late on to pick up the last wicket. (AP Photo)

Seamer Lungi Ngidi had earlier taken 6-71 as South Africa made light work of bowling India out after the visitors resumed on 272 for three. Ngidi helped South Africa claim the last seven wickets for the addition of only 55 runs in 15.3 overs. (AFP Photo)
