The 25-year-old cricketer scored 93 runs from 91 balls for the Temba Bavuma-led side in their first innings on Sunday, and on Monday, during India\u2019s first innings, he picked up six wickets for 48 runs in 19.5 overs.<\/p>\n<p id=\"1\" class=\"story_para_1\">Jansen opened his wicket account on Monday by dismissing Dhruv Jurel in the morning session, and in the post-tea session, he accounted for the dismissal of Rishabh Pant (7), Nitish Kumar Reddy (10) and Ravindra Jadeja (6). Jansen completed his five-wicket haul in the third session of the third day\u2019s play by removing Kuldeep Yadav.
