South Africa defeated Pakistan by 211 runs in the first of three Tests at the Wanderers, in Johannesburg, this morning.
Set a target of 480, Pakistan were dismissed for 268 on the fourth day of the Test after being shot out for 49 in their first innings.
Man of the match Dale Steyn was chiefly responsible for their demise with his remarkable six-wicket haul, for eight runs, in 8.1 overs in Pakistan’s first innings and 5/52 in the second.
His match figures were 11 for 60.
Wicketkeeper AB de Villiers didn't have a bad game either scoring 103 not out in South Africa's second innings and equalled the world record of 11 catches behind the stumps, shared with Jack Russell of England, who pouched his eleven against South Africa at the same ground in 1995/96.
The second test starts at Newlands in Cape Town next Thursday.
