Rain restricts play to 15 overs on day one between West Indies and South Africa

Aiden Markram lost his wicket as South Africa reached 45-1 before rain stopped play on day one of the first Test against West Indies.

Markram was dismissed on nine by Jason Holder (1-2) in the 14th over.

Kemar Roach (0-6) had Markram on the back foot throughout, though it was Holder who made the breakthrough with a wicked delivery that sent the South African's off-stump tumbling.

Tony de Zorzi reached 32 not-out and Tristan Stubbs was on two not-out when, during the tea break, play was abandoned for the day.

It means 75 overs of play were lost on day one in Trinidad, where play will start early on day two.

Play has been called off for the day. Day 2 will get underway at 3:30pm CAT tomorrow. vs #WozaNawe #BePartOfIt#SAvWI pic.twitter.com/r6hpnNBlCv
