Fighting knock from the Huss, very scratchy and lucky in parts and doesn't look like he's worked himself back into form yet, but if he gets to a 100, who knows?

 

[pasag]

This is so good!

 

[TT Boy]

Just a shame it is all kicking off in the 99th over. Where was that kind of short pitch bowling to Hughes yesterday?

Beaut of an over from Steyn though. Hussey still looks awful but at least his still there.

The wicket looks to have quickened up.

 

[pasag]

Hussey bowled again

 

[Corli]

at least his still there..

And gone

 

[TT Boy]

And gone

 

[Langeveldt]

So SA bowling better today? To little too late if we are going to have serious hopes of winning this game

 

[wfdu_ben91]

What has happened to the pitch overnight?

 

[Briony]

Hussey didn't quite make his average today.

A bit of rain and cloud cover makes all the difference. Yesterday was a perfect toss to win with sun overhead. SA blew whatever their chances were by blowing shyte.

 

[Nate]

Haha, Hussey looks completely out of form, not using his bottom hand at all... and still makes a Test 50. WAG.

I disagree that South Africa have bowled much better today. Steyn came good in his last few, but generally, again, the Saffie bowlers are too wide. They need to bowl at the stumps.

EDIT: And there you go. No surprise that the two wickets have come from deliveries at the stumps.

Johnson, Siddle and hopefully Macca should be ace on this deck.

 

[TT Boy]

Lucky dismissal there, North should have put that away.

 

[Uppercut]

That was almost as bad a ball as the one Kallis got a wicket with yesterday.

 

[pasag]

Ridiculous collapse.

 

[ripper868]

Scrap that

 

[inbox24]

Tail up.

South Africa firmly on top here, has the pitch just deteriorated overnight or are they just tightening up the bowling or both?

Anything less than 450 will be a psychological loss for us.

 

[TT Boy]

That is just straight up crap batting.

 

[pasag]

ffs, pathetic

 

[inbox24]

Johnson gone, only Siddle and the two number 11s left now.

 

[TT Boy]

 

[Nate]

Outside leg, surely.

EDIT: No referral from Jonners. Siddle for 50 (Y)
