12.45pm Tabraiz Shamsi: It is a good feeling, and hopefully we win this one as well. The main thing is pitching in line with the stumps and the surface does the rest. Australia is a quality side, our bowlers did a great job. We should be able to chase it down."

SA rested three-first choice bowlers but still wiped out Australia for 167 in 36.4 overs. Abbott led the way with the new ball before Shamsi, the left-arm wristspinner, took over and ended with career-best returns of 3 for 36. The story could have been worse for the visitors if not for fifities from Wade and Marsh. We'll be back soon for the chase.

Maksood: "6 LBWs. 5 to Spinners." --- Shami identified accuracy was important on this surface

Muddasar: "What a day to have in Cricket, Kohli (200+), Rahane (188), India 550+ while BD 117/5 and Austrailia 167/10. Eventful day."

Shalom: "Will Tremain do a Mitch Johnson today? Mitch used to always fed off his batting performance while bowling. Also, I agree that Aussies have been poor during this series. Kudos to South Africa."

Phangiso to Boland, OUT, Phangiso strikes the pad, again! Draws another leg-before appeal. The bowler isn't sure. Qdk insists on a review, and Faf goes for it. Inside edge? Replays show pad first! Tossed up full, drifts in. Straightens enough. It would have hit middle. Australia have been dismissed for 167

Phangiso to Wade, OUT, Phangiso belts out an appeal for lbw, it's given! Wade wants a review, more out of hope rather than conviction. He's also Australia's last hope. Pushed through from over the wicket, starts outside off, and spins in. Wade goes low for the sweep and misses. Struck on the thigh in line with the stumps. The tracker shows it would hit the leg stump
