That was very good important chance for South Africa to comeback and levels the series against Australia. In today match there was one change from Australia Smith was in for their injured captain Clarke. Australia won the toss and decided to bat first against South Africa. South African pace battery was ready to attack on Australian batsman. They break the opening partnership early in the innings and sent Australia on back foot in this game. This was the time where Australia was needed to keeps wickets in hand rebuild the innings. But South African pace battery was in hurry to finish the innings. Mitchell Marsh was the only batsman from Australia who bats carefully in complete innings. He makes vital and important fifty for his time. Australia makes 154 runs in with the fifty of Mitchell Marsh. Morne Morkel took five wickets and given away only 21 runs. This was his carrier best bowling performance. All the hard work was done by the South Africa.   

Now the whole responsibility was on the shoulders of South African batsman. But Australia was here with the plan to bowl against the South Africa batsman. They took some early quick wickets which makes this little target for South Africa very difficult. All the batsman of South Africa was crumbling on the wicket. Hazelwood bowls very well throughout the innings which troubles a lot South Africa. He takes 5 wickets and gives only 31 runs. But that was not enough to stop South Africa to achieve the target. Because others bowlers of Australia not bowls enough good. South Africa loses their seven wickets to achieve the target. That’s how the South Africa won this match by 3 wickets. This was all due to the good bowling of South Africa bowlers. Morne Morkel was the man of the match due to his splendid bowling spell. I hope in next match both teams will come with more preparation to get the lead.
