South Australia 93 and 272 for 6 (Sangha 75, McInerney 61, Nielsen 49) lead Tasmania 101 by 264 runs
SA were 272 for 6 in their second innings at stumps on day two at Adelaide Oval, 264 runs ahead of Tasmania. The hosts made just 93 in their first dig, with the visitors replying with 101.
But after 20 wickets fell on day one, four SA batters took control on Wednesday, with Sangha (75), McInerney (64), Harry Nielsen (49) and Liam Scott (43 retired hurt) all flourishing.
Sangha and McInerney combined for a match-high partnership for the third wicket. The duo put on 100 runs after the early losses of opener Henry Hunt and skipper Nathan McSweeney.
New Test allrounder Beau Webster adopted a similar tactic, bowling around the wicket with his medium pacers, and removed Jake Lehmann caught at first slip by Jordan Silk.
Sangha was removed a dozen overs later, leaving SA 181 for 5 and the game in the balance. But allrounder Scott and wicketkeeper-batter Nielsen then turned the tide in favour of the home side with a brisk 89-run partnership.
Nielsen cracked eight boundaries in his 81-ball knock, and Scott struck six fours before retiring hurt about 10 minutes before stumps because of a suspected migraine. Nielsen was trapped lbw by Meredith in the next over, giving the quick his second wicket.
