Just looked at the scores, did a double take. Is it a test match or an ODI? Aussies all out for 212 off just 56!!!!!
SA 27-3
Difficult to see this test going into day 4 or 5 unless rain arrives

49/8 since tea.
Day 3 is looking less likely now, too.
A decent first hour for South Africa on day 2... 44 runs added by Bavuma 36* and Bedingham 17*
SA 87-4
One odd moment earlier when Bavuma looked plumb, but survived a review...
27.3 Hazlewood to Bavuma, no run
Given lbw! Bavuma reviews but he does not look confident Full length, nipping in down the slope. He's caught on the crease driving the wrong line with no footwork. There's a spike on Snicko! Bavuma survives but he didn't review straight away. An odd one.

I could do with this going to Day 5.
Come on SA!
Come on SA!
If nothing else, DRS has illustrated that batters definitely don't always know when they've edged the ball.
10 from the over before lunch, SA 121-5, a very good session of testing cricket.
SA need a wag to get up from 129-7, pressure on Bedingham 43* to bat with the tail but also score a few
Oh dear... BANG BANG BANG for Cummins after lunch... who now has 5-28, and SA in trouble on 135-8

Cummins 6/28 off 18. Some performance.
Rabada & Cummins have combined figures of 33.5 / 11 / 79 / 11
Cummins' record at first change is different class.
156 wickets at 21.85, not including the current match.

Note that most of the bowlers above him (apart from Jamieson and Garner really) on that list either played before the first world war or are stone cold shite the moment they have to bowl outside Australia.
156 wickets at 21.85, not including the current match.
