Great day for Australia and with SA batting last too.

SA are a tough team to finish off though.

Similarly to the Ashes - against the much vaunted Engl lower order.

With a W, I think.

Its what you need your quick bowlers to do. Polish of the tail quickly. This Australian line up has been excellent at doing that over this last summer.

Australia flying along at present. Lead approaching 300 very quickly.

Bancroft with 50, should give him a bit of confidence.

Three down, but Aussies too far ahead now and Smith is in.

Maharaj with two wickets and rabada with one.

Just a matter of time before the declaration.

still a bit of time, I reckon. Another two days in hand after today.

Even if Smith were to want a decent spell at them tonight, you'd think that there would be at least 30 overs still available for Aus (there is 48 overs to go, atm)

Could be a big ask now.

But 350 run lead, should be to much. Another 50 would be nice....

Still got Marsh sr in there and one of the tail will stick in.

450 is always a nice lead I tend to think.
