India pace bowler Zaheer Khan dismissed South Africa captain Graeme Smith for the sixth time in nine tests before rain forced the players off the field after only nine overs on the opening day of the third test on Sunday.
Smith had scored six when he played a hesitant drive at the left-arm swing bowler down the wrong line. The ball shaped to go away but then nipped back in, hitting the left-hander on the back pad in front of his stumps.
