Day 2 .. Aus finished at 331-3, with some brave cricket by Michael Clarke.
A little rain expected in the afternoon, but, clear for last 3 days of the match, so, shouldn't affect outcome.
My book is fucked .. Gonna turn the page.
Drinks .. 381-3 .. Still scoring quick, thou Abbott has bowled super. Steyn not in pitch, looks unlikely to play a part in this match.
S.Africa 20
Aus 2.0
Draw 2.18
Lunch - windy as anything, and mountain obscured by cloud .. It's raining on mountain, according to the idiots on the radio.
Aus 434-4 .. I reckon they look for 575 .. And put SA in, after a Tea.
S.Africa 23
Aus 2.06
Draw 2.10
39 overs in, and rain arrives and doesn't budge. 51 overs lost in the day .. 2 were lost on Day 1, so, despite 30 mins early start, day 3/4/5, overs being lost from the game.
Aus 494-7
Steyn may bowl in second inngs ..
The batting line-up for S.Africa does look a bit stronger, with Elgar and Du Plessis .. So, maybe they can hang on for a draw, .. Hard to see them winning.
S.Africa 17
Aus 2.34
Draw 1.90
