Remember SA could start their innings late on a 3rd day pitch, still very good for batting
Ideally we bat to lunch tomorrow
The game is far from being 100 % safe

Oh yeah a test match is never 100% safe, that is what makes tests so much better than any other form of cricket . Make no mistakes, SA will need something pretty special to win from here.

Yeah it's strange, he is not even that tall for a fast bowler either. There must just be something in his action with his bouncer and he generates a lot more bounce than expected

A couple fell before the new ball. Paine took an amazing catch as well. Once their opener got out they fell apart.

I think Amla has been the key wicket.

Not even close. Aiden Markram was on 143 and Quinton de Kock was in the 60's and they were doing it easy. Looked like they might even win. Then Mitchell Marsh and Paine struck to get Markram out. Starc then went bezerk and got 3 wickets with those 3 guys making a combined 6 runs.

Amla was dismissed for 0 and 8. That made a big difference.

No it didn't. Kawaja made 14 and 6.
