What about Dale Steyn?
He's got a career best of 78 against the Australians, and that was against a stronger Australian team than the current one.No, I don't suppose it's realistic to expect a huge contribution from Steyn in spin friendly conditions, so you're probably right about it being up to those three. I wish I believed we could save this game, but I'm not optimistic.

Haha, to be fair that was kind of an aberration. And yes, that was also a match saving one, off top of my head?
Yep, I think SA are screwed here. What an atrocious batting performance. It's a flat track and nothing justifies their <250 score. That too just because Amla fought out. Ridiculous.
AB and JP are the key though.

Peterson to Misbah-ul-Haq, SIX,

One month they lose to Zimbabwe, the next they beat South Africa. That's Pakistan for you...
