Vernon Philander (5-7 in 6 overs) took one of the quickest five-wicket hauls in Tests as New Zealand's batting line-up crumbled to 45 all out on the opening morning.
Dale Steyn (2-18) became the fourth South African to take 300 Test wickets as the Kiwis fell apart in just 100 minutes in the 20th over, before lunch. An undefeated century from Alviro Petersen then helped South Africa reach 252 for three at the close.
South Africa 252 for 3 (Petersen 103*, Amla 66, Kallis 60) lead New Zealand 45 (Philander 5-7, Morkel 3-14) by 207 runs.
