Sounds like A&B are bowling a bit short.

yeah with the amount of movement there has been, both in the air and off the pitch, they could probably have pitched it up just a little bit more

Maybe SA would have taken one wicket in the first ten overs. But their batting looks vulnerable most of the way down.
