Tbf, he wasn't batting well recently in the ODIs... I know it's a different format and all but he looked a bit out of sorts.
He'll probably smash a double next test, mind.

Reverse-sweeps , late cuts , leg glances, edges.
When Uzzie gets in he is a boundary hitter. Really need to dry him up and make him put pressure on himself.

Even before he could defend, when Mitch Marsh hit the ball, it stayed hit. One of the cleanest hitters around.
Need Khawaja and M Marsh to step up and score the bulk of the runs here. Big partnership needed to keep us in the game.
His own fault for listen to qdk and big vern. They are terrible at reviews.

Tbh if you can't rely on your keeper, then you're never going to be any good at reviews regardless of what you do.

Yeah but that wasn't the problem wither other review that DeKock said was missing, and he was right, but Faf went upstairs anyway. Can't just blanket disregard the bowler and the 'keeper when they're in the best position. They just need to be better at not screaming their heads off like it's deadset plumb when it's missing by 10cm.

The problem is that the keeper and bowler are the ones with the best view, so he does have to rely on them to some extent.

Pretty impressive knock from khawaja. He doesn't usually do ugly gritty knocks does he?

He actually does this exact sort of knock a lot: team is way behind on the first innings, puts together an impressive looking start (having done little in the previous few innings), but falls when set. It's definitely a pattern.
Won't make a difference to this game, ofc. SA have just been too good all around, I don't even think Aus have played terrible cricket, some of the 1st innings batting aside.
