Kagiso Rabada	15.4	5	51	5	3.25	76	9	0	0	1
6.3 to UT Khawaja, edged and well held at first slip! That wobbled to Bedingham and he held on. Wobble seam from around the wicket, fourth stump, good length, he was caught on the crease, squared up, he edges and Bedingham held it really well as it veered in the air on the way to him. 12/1 6.6 to C Green, edged and brilliantly caught at second slip! Great delivery. Full and angled in on off, wobble seam, it nipped away a touch as Green played slightly across the line and a thick edge flies low to second and Markram dives forward to pouch it in two hands just above the turf. 16/2 52.4 to PJ Cummins, bowled him! Absolute seed! 138kph, angled into off from wide on the crease, it hits the seam and straightens with the slope, Cummins is leg side, exposing off stump, it beats the outside edge and crashes into the top of off. 199/7 54.4 to BJ Webster, edged and pouched by Bedingham! Rabada has four and passes Allan Donald! Back of a length, wobble seam nipping away down the slope wide of off, Webster wafts off the back foot and gets a thick edge that flies straight to first slip and Bedingham takes another good catch. 210/8 56.4 to MA Starc, Rabada has a bag! Knocks back the top of leg. Back of a length, nipping in down the slope, through the gate as Starc tries to drive on the up and the bails fly!. 212/10 See all photos
Marco Jansen	14	5	49	3	3.50	63	6	0	0	2
17.6 to M Labuschagne, He nicks it! South Africa have their third! It's full outside off and draws a gentle push from Labuschagne, but the ball doesn't seam in and holds its line to take a feather of an edge that's gobbled up by Verreynne!. 46/3 23.2 to TM Head, Jansen has strangled Head down the leg side! Wasn't the best of deliveries, going down leg. Head looks to flick and gets a tickle and Verreynne, in keeping with South Africa's efforts this session, takes a very good one-handed diving catch to his right. This is a big moment just before lunch as South Africa get their fourth, and the dangerous Head has been accounted for!. 67/4 55.5 to NM Lyon, clean bowled! 138kph, full, starting wide of off and shaping nicely back through the gate as Lyon tries to drive. It crashes into middle and off. 211/9 See all photos

51.1 to AT Carey, bowled attempting a reverse sweep! Carey gifts his wicket! Flighted very full on middle and off, it's a premeditated reverse sweep when he could have driven this on the full. It dips under the bat, goes behind his legs and crashes into middle and leg with all three stumps exposed. 192/6 See all photos
Aiden Markram	2	0	5	1	2.50	9	0	0	0	0
41.6 to SPD Smith, Juggling catch from Jansen sees Smith's knock come to an end! And it's Markram with the breakthrough! This is tossed up outside off and Smith is looking for the booming cover drive. He gets a thick edge that flies towards Jansen's left who can't grab it in his first attempt and the ball lobs up off his second attempt too, but on the third, he holds on! Smith walks off for 66 and this is another big moment in this game! He'll be frustrated with the way he got out, he would have wanted to go on longer. And Markram, who was likely brought in to help Mulder get a change of ends, gets a wicket!. 146/5 See all photos

Mitchell Starc	13	3	41	2	3.15	59	7	0	0	0
0.6 to AK Markram, chopped on! The big inswinger works for Starc! 145kph, good length hooping back from outside off, Markram caught on the crease pokes with an angled bat playing for a straight ball, it veers back, catches the inside edge and bounces onto leg stump. Starc is fired up. 0/1 8.4 to RD Rickelton, Edged and taken! Starc draws the edge this time! Full outside off and swinging away and Rickelton pushes at it only for the ball to take the nick and go flying to Khawaja's right at first slip. Khawaja makes no mistake and Starc is pumped!. 19/2 See all photos
Josh Hazlewood	15	5	27	1	1.80	74	2	0	0	0
20.2 to T Stubbs, Hazlewood knocks him over! And he ensures he doesn't miss out on the wickets today! Length ball seaming in and pitching outside off. Seams in even more to beat the inside edge as Stubbs looks to defend and South Africa slide further!. 30/4 See all photos
Pat Cummins	18.1	6	28	6	1.54	95	2	1	0	1
15.2 to PWA Mulder, Knocks him over! Cummins joins the party! Mulder looks to drive down the ground without any foot movement, and this full ball seams in from outside off to go through the gate and crash into middle stump! Mulder's vigil comes to an end, and South Africa lose a third. 25/3 39.2 to T Bavuma, That's a stunner by Labuschagne at cover. Fuller in length outside off, with the ball seaming away. Bavuma looks to loft this over covers, like he has a couple of times this innings. But this one is more a checked drive than a loft. Does not get the elevation, and Labuschagne at cover dives full-length to his right, gets both hands to it and takes a lovely catch. 94/5 51.3 to K Verreynne, huge appeal for lbw given not out and Verreynne and Cummins collide while South Africa run! Cummins gets up and reviews. No bat. He shuffled back and across a long way and was hit in line. You could see leg stump behind him. Three reds on ball tracking! Verreynne is out. It was smashing leg stump. Decision overturned. Crazy sequence. He shuffled back and across and was hit in line but the umpire thought it was sliding. The ball went to fine leg and Verreynne put his head down and ran and plowed straight into Cummins' back as he was turned appealing to the umpire. But Cummins kept his head and gets the scalp!. 126/6 51.6 to M Jansen, chipped return catch! Very soft! Full angled into off, he pushes forward with hard hands as it holds in the surface and he just chips a simple return catch back to Cummins. Australia's skipper taking the game by the throat. 126/7 55.2 to DG Bedingham, edged and Carey hangs on! Cummins has five! Sensational from the skipper! Good length, angled in, straightening up the slope, Bedingham caught on the crease, slices across the line with his bat plane, gets a thin edge and Carey moves nicely low to his right to pouch it. 135/8 57.1 to K Rabada, Webster holds a stunner at deep square! Cummins has 300 Test wickets! Chest high short ball, Rabada takes it on and nails it flat to deep square, Webster initially didn't see it in the deep. He finally picked it up as it dropped short of him, he dived forward and plucked in those huge fingers just above the turf. 138/10 See all photos

Kagiso Rabada	18	1	59	4	3.27	80	7	0	0	5
10.2 to UT Khawaja, Edged, gone! Rabada strikes like he so often does. Short of a good length ball that lands outside off, and straightens after pitching. Khawaja feels for it, gets a thick edge and Verreynne does the rest to his left. 28/1 10.4 to C Green, Edged and taken at third slip. He has Green twice in the Test and SA are pumped. Length ball just outside off, Green is down the track once more. But this time, he can only manage a thick outside edge, with Mulder pouching a comfortable catch waist high to his left. The third umpire is checking for a no-ball, but Rabada is safe. 28/2 38.2 to AT Carey, Huge, huge appeal for lbw. The umpire agrees, Carey reviews. This looks much close. Rabada gets the ball to deviate back into Carey from that around the wicket angle. Is the ball doing too much? No bat, on we go. Hits him in line, and it comes up as umpire's call on leg stump and Carey has to depart.. 134/8 42.4 to NM Lyon, given lbw! The umpire didn't hesitate. Neither did Lyon on the review. Good length, nipping in up the slope. It did above the knee roll. He isn't a long way forward. No bat. Ball tracking says it hit in line and it's smashing leg stump!. Too good for Lyon. Nip up the slope with a 42 over old ball in the sun and Rabada has nine for the match. 148/9 See all photos
Marco Jansen	18	3	58	1	3.22	81	7	0	0	3
17.5 to M Labuschagne, caught behind! Loose drive brings a nick. Full and wide, it was there to be driven to be fair, perhaps just straightened a touch but it was a half-volley, he maybe tried to drive too straight and got a thin edge through to Verreynne. 44/3 See all photos
Wiaan Mulder	8	1	18	1	2.25	36	0	0	0	2
23.4 to TM Head, bowled him! Chaos! Brilliant delivery from around the wicket. Wobble seam, good length, pitching outside off and nipping back past the inside edge, it hits the pad and crashes into off. Unbelievable stuff!. 66/6 See all photos
Lungi Ngidi	13	1	38	3	2.92	50	2	0	0	0
18.5 to SPD Smith, huge lbw appeal given not out. South Africa review. Smith shuffled back and across and was hit on the back pad wiping across the line. Was he outside the line? No bat involved. Ball tracking says ... impact in line! Smashing off stump! Three reds! Ngidi takes the big scalp of Smith! That was a dead straight delivery on off. Not sure how Smith missed it. 48/4 22.6 to BJ Webster, given lbw! Webster reviews. Wide of the crease, angled in, it hits the seam and keeps tailing in. It beats the inside edge as he tries to get low to defend. It hit the back leg in line and was smashing middle! That was identical to the lbw that wasn't given or reviewed in the first innings!. 64/5 24.5 to PJ Cummins, bowled off the pad! Yorker at the feet of Cummins, he tries to whip but misses, he was hit on the pads outside the line of leg but it cannons into middle and off!. 73/7 See all photos

64.6 to JR Hazlewood, Loosener ends the innings, anticlimax after a persistent tenth-wicket stand. It was a drag-down wide of off, might've slipped out the hand as it sat up proper. Hazlewood tried to slap it over cover but didn't go through with the shot. Got it around Maharaj's right shoulder. 207/10

2.1 to RD Rickelton, Australia think this is caught behind! The umpires check whether it was bump ball. Full wide outswinger, almost a yorker, it bounces before Rickelton's square drive and he got a thick edge! Carey took the catch! It looked out live and there was no doubt on the replay. 9/1 17.4 to PWA Mulder, Change in angle does the trick straight away. Mulder spoons it low to Marnus at catching cover. Was a full ball, not half-volley, angling in towards fifth stump. Might've held in the pitch a touch. It meant Mulder was early into the shot, didn't check it till it was too late. Looked like he wanted to go straighter too. He was in disbelief for a while before walking back. Big smiles in the Australian camp. 70/2 70.3 to T Stubbs, 145ks ripper to trim the bails. Scrambled seam from wide of the crease, lands it on a length around fourth and comes in sharply with the angle. Stubbs tried to block it straight, might've gotten an inside edge. No, looks like he was just beaten by the angle. Starc raises his finger and Australian hopes. 241/4 See all photos
Josh Hazlewood	19	2	58	1	3.05	80	6	0	0	0
80.6 to AK Markram, Whipped,, Head takes the catch at midwicket. Markram won't finish it off but has taken SA to the doorstep of victory. Australia's fielders come in to shake his hands, he trudges in disbelief. Gets a big ovation as he raises his bat close to the boundary. Was an anticlimactic dismissal, was hard to say it was out from Head's non-celebration. Felt like he fielded it but it was a low catch to the right. Was a hard-length ball on the pads that was whipped hard. Went off the toe. 276/5 See all photos

58.6 to T Bavuma, Edged and gone! Australia needed an early wicket, they have got it. Is there hope for them? Short of a good length ball outside off stump at 84mph, seaming away from Bavuma. He just hangs his bat out for a thick outside edge that is snapped up by Carey comfortably. Cummins is pumped, Australia believe.. 217/3 See all photos
