Chittagong: Tony de Zorzi made an unbeaten century to propel South Africa to 205-1 at tea against Bangladesh on day one of the second and final Test in Chattogram yesterday.
The opener hit his maiden Test ton off 146 deliveries by sweeping Mehidy Hasan Miraz through square leg for a boundary.
He was unbeaten on 101 with eight fours and two sixes at the break with Tristan Stubbs holding up the other end on 65.
South Africa, victorious in the first Test by seven wickets, won the toss and chose to take first use of a good batting pitch.
Captain Aiden Markram was the only wicket to fall after he went for a big shot off left-arm spinner Taijul Islam and holed out to Mominul Haque at mid-on for 33.
