Morkel pulls up injured. A sad end to his international career?
:(
Cummins gets his half century!
:clap
Maharaj strikes, Cummins 50 and out.

Gutsy holding action from Paine and Cummins. Two of the better characters in this Australian team , I think.

At least going to make SA work for their win. :thumb

Although its 68th over in progress i don't think there is a chance of SA making Australia follow-on. Morkel is injured with side strain. Saffers have just 4 bowlers.

Fifty up for Australian Tim. Fantastic effort. A Hollywood twist to the news story.

Indeed, Aussie-Tim is the last man out. Huge lead for SA. I guess the injury to MM rules out the follow on, but otherwise it would have been a good time to reinsert.

Pretty painful these third innings time fillers when the follow on isn't imposed. Not just for the struggling side but for the spectators too.

Amla out to lyon for 16.

AB de Villiers out to Cummins for six. Three down.

Bat to lunch and declare with a target of 500?

I'm a bit surprised they didn't enforce the follow on. Unless it was just to give them some time to assess Big Morne

I presume if he's got a side strain that he'll be out for a while.
