On Day 2 of the opening test clash, Mitchell Johnson once again proved his brilliance with the bowling as he top-ranked South Africa 140-6 as an amazing response to Australia’s first-innings 397 on Thursday.
Earlier during Australia’s first innings, Shaun Marsh and Steve Smith both made centuries for Australia. Marsh’s 148 was a career-best, Smith’s 100 his fourth hundred in seven Tests, and their 233-run stand led the Aussies out of trouble and toward early control of the match.
Johnson ripped out four South Africans, with captain Graeme Smith and Faf du Plessis falling to perfect and near-unplayable short-pitched deliveries from the left-arm quick at SuperSport Park. South Africa was 257 behind when rain ended play early.
At stumps, AB De Villiers remained unbeaten at 52 holding South Africa’s fragile innings together, still short of avoiding the follow-on at Centurion, where the Proteas have lost just one of their 18 previous Tests, a record under severe threat.
