A fired-up Dale Steyn has removed New Zealand's openers to leave the tourists on 2-15 at lunch after a rain-shortened second morning of the first Test against South Africa.
Steyn, playing his first Test of 2016 after injury, had Tom Latham (four) caught by Hashim Amla at first slip before trapping Martin Guptill (seven) lbw on Saturday.
New Zealand are replying to the home side's 263 and will rely on captain Kane Williamson and the experienced Ross Taylor, both on two not out, to build a partnership on a bowlers' wicket in a first-ever winter Test in Durban.
The conditions at Kingsmead have been perfect for swing bowling.
Earlier, New Zealand needed 10 overs to take the final two South African wickets in their first innings after the hosts resumed on 8-236 following a 50-minute rain delay.
Seamers Trent Boult (3-52) and South African-born Neil Wagner (3-47) were the pick of the New Zealand bowlers.
