South Africa fight hard as the run chase gets higher

Cricket batting with stumps behind
This cricket test match keeps getting more and more interesting.On the second day South Africa got bundled out for a total of 388.When Australians came into bat it looked like they might achieve a target which might be out of reach of the South Africans but some brilliant bowling by the South Africans ended the day with Australia at a score of 111 for the loss of 5 wickets.This test match is turning out to be one of those where you feel tempted to say the name of both the teams when asked who will win.Below are the highlights of the second days play along with the full scorecard.
