Harmer getting the ball to do quite a bit...pitch breaking up a bit already. First innings going to have to be a big one from us.

I'm so over this test series. Looking forward to England arriving on our shores at the end of the year.

Its frustrating watching us toil away in foriegn conditions :(

I'm all for toil, I really am. But toil needs to be rewarded (or at least have the possibility of reward). And that is just completely lacking here.

As I type though, Morkel rattles Rahane's stumps (with a bit of help from some injudicious batting it seems).

Don't have an issue with the bowlers toiling, they've done well in this series. The issue is the batsmen not willing to do the same...

Ah, true story! There's been ample talk this week of batsmen taking responsibility, grafting, sticking out etc etc blah blah blah, so let's hope they make good on that. Having India 4 down cheaply is excellent work. Nip Kohli out now and we'll be in the pound seats. Then it will be time for Amla & Co to come good.

Really good over from Morkel, that...nice one, big man.

The bowlers really have done very well this tour.

Need to knock the tail out quickly, can't afford them to wag given this will likely be a low scoring game. Great performance by the boys so far. Big Morne leading the attack brilliantly in dale's absence.

About time he does something.
