Faf is batting. They will draw it I think.

Che Pujara and Virat Kohli.  8)

india have the makings of a test powerhouse, talented batsmen with hunger for big runs coming through, world class spinners in ashwin/ojha, also talented fast bowlers like shami/yadav(where's he disappeared to?) - could well be the complete team if it all comes together/managed well

scary prospect at home in particular

Mailman the 2nd

That's all they've even been.

Suprised that Imran Tahir is still getting Tests, a really average bowler.

Tahir is the worst leggie since McGain

yeah true, guess that's stating the obvious really - they will also be scary away if they continue to develop with batting/seam/spin threats

south africa so desperate for a spinner should have picked petersen for this test despite immy doing well in the 2nd test in the UAE (it was the luckiest 5fer u will ever see), what they really should do is drop tahir, pick another batsman who bowls part time spin and just use JP and that guy for the spin overs! imagine... 8 batsmen!!

Mailman the 2nd

Yeah SA has a lot more in the All rounder department than the spinners. Tahir has bowled more full tosses than Steve Smith

Bill Manspeaker

tea.

South Africa 4-331

Cicjose

should do it easily if the spinners dont do anything

Bill Manspeaker

4-358

this is now the highest 4th innings total at the Wanderers

need 100 to win

4-392
Du Plessis 116*
De Villiers 100*

This is unbelievable. De Villiers showing why he is the best batsman in the world right now.

Only way India can manage anything here is bad light which is looking doubtful.

GoLions

28 needed from 5 overs now. Going to go down to the last few balls you would think

Bill Manspeaker

Faf run out!!! 16 from 19 needed. what a great throw under pressure
