Amla reminding us why he's one of the best. On average, he scores a Test century every six innings. As comparison, Kallis and Lara also score a century every six innings, whilst De Villiers scores one every 8 innings. Of course, Amla has a much lower strike rate (50s) and comes in much earlier than the, in my opinion, slightly more talented De Villiers.
South Africa look set to win this game. Steyn, surprisingly, is being overshadowed by everyone this tour.

Well duh
There's a reason why Saffers are No 1. They're good. That good. They've got terrific batsmen like Amla and AB, and they have good backup players like Faf who is IMO one of the best model for aspiring test players around - he's saved two tests for his team in his short career so far.
And now JP is chipping in, which is a bonus.
This was expected, the batting lineup is pretty fragile. Once they'd scored 400+ I pretty much anticipated this. And now piling on runs in the second innings for a significant lead, they should win this pretty comfortably.
One more test to go though.

South Africa's comeback in series has been quite extraordinary...also shows how topsy-turvy the situation is among top 4-5 teams currently..
