Re: South Africa in Australia

This has been an interesting test match. To make it more interesting, I'd love for Johnson to make 70+, and Siddle to make 30+.

Re: South Africa in Australia

does anyone have a list of final innings scores to win at the MCG?

The highest successful chase ever at the MCG is 332.

Cricinfo - 3rd Test: Australia v England at Melbourne, Dec 29, 1928 - Jan 5, 1929

In the last 20 years the highest successful chase is 197.

Cricinfo - 2nd Test: Australia v England at Melbourne, Dec 26-30, 1990

well done to the south africans, fantastic bowling.... some bad batting but lovely bowling all day. They deserve to take the number 1 spot if they make the runs IMO
