Australia 231 all out

Rabada 4-54
Pretorius 3-32
Steyn 2-31

40s for Finch, Lynn and Carey.

Aussie's still in the game if they break this partnership soon.

Looks like a big gulf between the quality of the Aussie batting and bowling.

FDP goes to Stoinis. Aussies have a chance here. Trouble is they need a lot of overs from Zampa and Stoinis.

Stoinis celebrates wicket of Steyn.

SA 184/7. Need 48 from 50.

Zampa into attack. Miller the dangerman who can turn the match on his own.

1 off the over. Superb from Zampa.

45 needed from 42.

Miller out. Think this should be win now for Aussies. Nice review by Finch.

indeed.

For the first time, Aus is in front. imo

Good to see a win, and a good win, to Aus.

Behind from not long after the start to not long before the end, they battled well for a large portion of the game.

The batting still not clicking though, which is surely a worry..... Zampa alwyas looks exposed at this level...Lyon or Agar should be there instead.....Stoinis is picking up wickets though which is good

Surprised me . Thought SA had that chase well in hand...but they do have a bit of a long tail and that told against them in the end.

Heartening for Finch and his boys ...and a fine effort to fight back from a fairly ropey batting performance. Brings a decider too for this rather nondescript white ball series...

suprised it's not 5 odi's to be honest..

Wasn't the ICC model going to be 3 Tests, T20, ODIs on a tour?

I always thought that SA series were going to be 5 tests along with England, Australia and India. 3 or 2 for the others

then again, I'm usually out of touch with these things

Miller and du Plessis hit centuries!
