It has been all Australia for the first thirty minutes of the third Test match at Cape Town. Chris Rogers and David Warner have gone after Dale Steyn and Vernon Philander, picking out the former for special treatment. In fact, so severe they were on Steyn that he had to be taken off after conceding 17 runs in two overs.

 

Morne Morkel, introduced as early as in the fifth over, produced ominous pace and bounce, clocking as high as 150 kph. Be rest assured, the Proteas are not going to give in easily: a wicket or two in the next half-an-hour will certainly turn things around.

 

And with the series tied at 1-1, expect both teams to go after each other in every session of the match.
