This has been a stupendous contest between the bat and the ball. At the end of the first innings one didn't stop blaming Australia for having spilled an opportunity to put up 300 on the board. The South Africans were driving all the momentum at that time but that was soon taken away when they lost their openers early on a pitch which didn't support batting. Kallis and de Villiers batted well, not express but good enough to keep their side afloat. Much like Marsh and Ponting, the South Africans lost their set batsmen in no time and since then everything went downwards. There was no urgency and there would be much criticism coming Boucher and Duminy's way for having approached the game in a poor manner. They left it for a little too late, and the batting powerplay and a few sixes couldn't help their cause.
