Steyn strikes before rain ends play
Dale Steyn struck two early blows for South Africa before rain prevented any play after lunch on the second day of the first Test against New Zealand on Saturday.
New Zealand were 15 for two, 248 runs behind South Africa's first innings total of 263, when play ended.
Steyn had Tom Latham caught at first slip by Hashim Amla for four off the second ball of his fourth over.
Bowling in helpful, heavily overcast conditions, he followed up in his next over with a full in-swinger which trapped Martin Guptill leg before wicket for seven.
SCORES IN BRIEF
SOUTH AFRICA: 263 all out (Amla 53, Bavuma 46; Wagner 3-47, Boult 3-52)
NEW ZEALAND: 15 for 2 (Williamson 2 not out, Taylor 2 not out; Steyn 2-3)
