TOTAL CONTROL: Australia Close in On Day 4

Pete and Gid watch a relentless Australia choke and neutralise South Africa on a classic third day at Kingsmead, with the wickets shared, and the catches almost monopolised by Steve Smith, who broke the fielding record for a non-wicketkeeper.  Plus: Gaz is back!  Also: Nic Maddinson gets off his pair!  But can the light hold out long enough for Australia to prosecute their advantage?

SEARCH AND DESTROY: Australia Maintain Ascendancy on Day 3

Pete and Gid enjoy the rhythms of old-fashioned long-distance red ball batting as Matthew Renshaw piles on 190 at Durban, having taken ten years between Test hundreds.  So who bats at number five now, eh?  Plus: the fun of batting with Nathan Lyon. Also: do we like South Africa yet?
