SA's record fourth-wicket stand

80 Number of matches it has taken Hashim Amla to hit 23 Test hundreds - the least by a South Africa batsman. Graeme Smith, who got to 23 centuries in 92 Tests, was the fastest for South Africa before Amla. Overall, Amla is joint-sixth along with Garry Sobers in the list of batsmen fastest to 23 hundreds.

287 AB de Villiers' batting average against West Indies in his last eight Test innings against them. He has been dismissed only twice and has scored 574 runs with three centuries and two fifties off these eight innings. Overall, he has hit 1178 runs against West Indies at an average of 90.61 including five hundreds and five fifties in 19 innings. This was De Villiers' 20th Test hundred and he has become the fifth South Africa batsman to hit 20 or more Test centuries.

283* Partnership runs between Amla and de Villiers - the highest for the fourth wicket for South Africa in Tests and the sixth fourth-wicket double-century partnership by a South African pair. This is also the highest fourth-wicket partnership by any pair in Tests in South Africa and the second highest for any wicket at this venue.

340 Runs rattled up by South Africa in the day - the second highest on the first day of a Test at this venue after the 375 runs they scored against Sri Lanka in 2001.

Roach's last-ten bowling innings have yielded at least one wicket.

209 Runs Alviro Petersen has scored in 11 innings this year at an average of 20.90, with only one half-century against Australia in Cape Town earlier this year.
