After losing two early wickets, opener Mayers and Roston Chase rebuilt the innings for the co-host combining for a half-century stand.
While Rabada was able to carry on despite being in some discomfort, Jansen spent a considerable amount of time on the floor beyond the boundary line before making his way to the dressing room for further treatment.
