From cricinfo :lol: :lol:

It's 10.00 am in Johannesburg, play will begin in three minutes. Precisely. Will Australia avoid the follow-on? They need to score 20 more than they did in the second innings at Newlands to do so. They probably will, but who can tell, really.

The openers looking solid.
Ball not swinging a lot
Dont want to jinx him but Hughes looks good, can see a biggie coming up

Hughes two fours in two balls through backward point, the second one was a cracker. This outfield is lightning fast

Agreed, like that Test Match cricket game. Where you'd just stack all your fielders for the on-drive. :lol:

Good effort by the Aussies. It was looking scary early on. Already we have seen some twists and turns this series. Good to see Siddle and Lyon taking wickets.

I wonder if South Africa are using the same approach towards Hughes as the English - not to challenge not out decisions.
