His next highest score on this pitch is 49," the commentary said. Along with Renshaw Beau Webster was at the crease with 5 off 22 balls. The pair added 16 runs (44 balls) for the sixth wicket.

The Aussies added 46 runs in the hour's play until the drinks break and Kerry lost just one wicket. Only 30 runs came in the last 10 overs. Trouble shooting with uneven bounce Commentary states that the uneven bounce on the pitch makes it difficult for the batsmen to hit shots freely. Webster tried to play a reverse sweep as Simon Harmer struggled with off-spin. Harmer took 1 wicket for 64 runs in 21 overs with a maiden.
Marco Jansen took 1 wicket for 30 runs in 6.2 overs. There are still 53.4 overs left to play in the innings. The question now is when will Australia declare an innings with a huge lead. "What's the Aussie magic number?" asked the commentary. Handing South Africa a huge target, the Aussies will look to bowl them out in the rest.
