00:00And that is expertly done. Catch is taken.
00:05And he takes it.
00:07That is a wonderful hit.
00:09That was hit with venom.
00:11Got him. What a good catch.
00:17Warm day it is in Durban, as you expect.
00:21It was a bit cloudy this morning, but with that southwesterly breeze,
00:25those clouds have blown away.
00:27And now there is sunshine over Durban for this day five,
00:32the first test match between South Africa and Australia.
00:38Big day for South Africa, of course.
00:41It's about survival today, batting time, batting overs.
00:45And we've just heard from the South African batting coach in Nashville Prince
00:48that it's finding the right tempo.
00:51Australia are in such a strong position right now,
00:54just needing six wickets to go 1-0 up in this three-match series.
00:58They are 102 for four at the moment, South Africa, in their second innings.
01:03The target by Australia is a big one, 421.
01:08We saw some magnificent batting from Renshaw in both innings.
01:11He found his tempo.
01:13He got it right.
01:14Can South Africa find something on day five to save this test match?
01:25Punch away.
01:26South Africa still want to be positive, even though they're looking for time.
01:31Oh, the timing on that is impeccable from Vian Mulder.
01:41He's got an excellent record in the fourth innings of a test match, does Aidan Markram.
01:47He's got over 700 runs in the fourth innings of a test.
01:52Averages close to 45.
01:58It's come back.
01:59We spoke about him tailing it into the right-hander.
02:02It's come back.
02:04Yeah, I talked about the Mahan games.
02:05And then all of a sudden you play, you go big drive at one,
02:08and you think, no, don't do that, leave.
02:11And then there's one that's quite tight.
02:13And you think, well, I'm in the mind instead of leaving.
02:15Whoops.
02:18Lovely.
02:19Got the length that he wanted.
02:20He was looking again for that in swing,
02:23and in the end, the length just wrong.
02:29Bowling.
02:32Right on target.
02:36Drawing the shot.
02:40Unfortunate Mulder
02:41so that he doesn't get his edge chipped.
02:49Bowling.
02:52Yeah, they hit back and so close.
02:55Come on, just need the one.
02:58That's what they're after here, Australia.
03:00They feel if they can get one,
03:02it could be like a deck of cards.
03:08Fine drive.
03:09Front elbow up.
03:11Ball races away.
03:14Stunning drive
03:15from Villal Mulder.
03:17Brings up the 50 partnership
03:18between him and Markram.
03:23Bit of shape.
03:24Clips the pattern.
03:25We'll go down to the rope,
03:26but it came back significantly
03:28from Hazelwood.
03:34Beautiful shot.
03:35Back foot.
03:36Caressed.
03:37Four runs,
03:38and just as importantly,
03:40six more balls.
03:46Down the leg side.
03:47Now, was there two noises
03:48according to the umpire?
03:49There was good catch
03:52by Alex Carey.
03:56They had the legs
03:57up in place as well.
03:59Ball tailing into him.
04:01And that'd be at the end
04:03of a lengthy partnership
04:04for South Africa.
04:07What an unfortunate way
04:08to go for Villal Mulder.
04:10He's worked so hard
04:11this morning.
04:13Josh Hazelwood
04:15with a tailing ball,
04:17a touch straighter.
04:22Carl Verena flicks
04:24at one outside
04:25the off-stamp,
04:25and Renshaw has another.
04:28He is having
04:29a dream test match.
04:32A special few days
04:34for the man
04:35who's added so much
04:36to this Australian test.
04:39One brings two.
04:41Carl Verena dismissed.
04:45Oh, that's gone wrong.
04:48All wrong.
04:49And Marcus Jansen
04:50says, yes, please.
04:52Thank you very much.
04:58Adam Markham has played
05:00that session really well.
05:03It wasn't easy.
05:04It was tough.
05:05It would have taken
05:05powers of concentration
05:07for a slightly longer
05:08session as well.
05:10And also, to remain
05:11within that bubble
05:12despite South Africa
05:13losing those two wickets
05:14near to the lunch break.
05:17He'll go to lunch
05:19on 69
05:20and Marcus Jansen
05:21is on 7.
05:27All right,
05:28that target of 421
05:29is pretty much
05:30out of the reach
05:30of South Africa.
05:31It's now about survival.
05:32For Australia,
05:33they need four more wickets.
05:35Of course,
05:36the lunch break now.
05:37Hi, everybody.
05:37What a glorious day
05:38at Kingsmead in Durban.
05:40And it's been exactly
05:41like this now
05:42for all five days
05:43of the match.
05:44The first three afternoons
05:46went misty
05:47and we had to leave
05:48the field early.
05:49But yesterday
05:49stayed glorious
05:50until the scheduled
05:52close of play.
05:53So that's the morning session.
05:55Don't worry too much
05:56about the runs.
05:56It's not really
05:57in South Africa's mind
05:58to be chasing
06:00this monumental target
06:01and establishing a victory.
06:03But they want to
06:03hang on in there
06:04and try to avoid defeat.
06:05So only losing two wickets
06:06in an extended morning session
06:08was handy to say the least.
06:14Oh, and that's just thumped.
06:16Simple as that.
06:18Crash into the bleachers.
06:24Oh!
06:26Nice four.
06:27Six-four.
06:30Consecutive long hops
06:31and similar shots.
06:42Nothing more than
06:42a little
06:44drop of the bat
06:45down onto the length
06:46of the ball
06:46which was very full.
06:53Nicely batted.
06:55That was really good.
06:56He just got away
06:57from the ball
06:58to give himself room
06:59to work the space
07:00and didn't try
07:01to hit it too hard.
07:02He just made sure
07:03he timed it.
07:07Oh!
07:17Sorry, I need that
07:17old ball.
07:18You need the old ball.
07:19You need the old ball.
07:19You need the old ball.
07:20Old ball.
07:20Old ball.
07:21Two.
07:23New ball it is.
07:33First little error, really, of the day, I'd say, from Markram.
07:37One, nine, one, six.
07:48Nasty play. Slightly over pitch. No issues there from Hazel.
07:51Do you understand why he's searching Fuller to try and bring the stumps and pads into play?
07:56But Marco Janssen says, I saw that one, and I'll deal with it.
08:02Another glorious drive. He's racking up boundaries.
08:04Marco Janssen, Hashem Amla, Kaya Zonda are beside me, and the 200s up Jens.
08:11That cover drive brings up the 200 for South Africa.
08:14Janssen on the counterattack with this new ball.
08:20Balled in! Hazelwood! He's so accurate, he's so persistent, and he gets the big breakthrough.
08:27Janssen departs. Seven down. Big wicket.
08:32Absolutely beautiful bowling from Josh Hazelwood.
08:36If there's a delivery that you want to watch that'll epitomise this man's talent and skill, this is the one.
08:45Oh!
08:47Bouncers! Catch taken!
08:48Bouncers! Catch taken!
08:50Arm in the air, and the big boy from Bendemir has got five, and South Africa are reeling now.
08:58That's a five for Hazelwood.
09:04An unbelievable delivery, and Simon Harmer didn't know much about it.
09:10Jumped off a length.
09:13And the second wicket, and this over for Hazelwood.
09:17And the third wicket, and this over for Hazelwood.
09:21And this over for Hazelwood.
09:24And the third wicket, and this over for Hazelwood.
09:26And this over for Hazelwood.
09:27Wals, there two noises.
09:29Sounded Patty.
09:32Carey's confident.
09:37Last second review by the Australian captain.
09:47okay i can't see the ball on the ground there uh so the ball is carried and cleanly taken
09:57markrum's vigil comes to an end after 237 deliveries just shy of six hours he gave
10:03everything for his team and his country but mitchell stark breaks through and the australians
10:09now just one wicket away slips everywhere and somehow it scurries its way through the smallest
10:25of gaps nokia got a little bit of width and dot guys let me have a bit of fun
10:34straight up in the air catch taken hazelwood finishes with six wickets and australians take
10:41a one nil lead in the series matt renshaw will dominate the headlines
10:49they were relentless the australian attack
10:53the 214 run win to kick off the series here in durban
10:58career and best bowling figures for josh hazelwood what an amazing effort from an amazing bowler
11:04australia winning this game by 214 runs what a mammoth victory for them
11:09look at that man matt renshaw what a game he's had runs wickets catches
11:18change them despondent one of south africa
11:23australian captain when he walked into bats at the beginning of the test match
11:27is when everything changed they were behind the game
11:31and after that partnership he had with renshaw in the first innings
11:36they dominated the rest of the game and on day five they've come out with the victory that's well
11:43deserved and announcing themselves here in south africa in this test series
11:58he's a bowling captain he knows his attack
12:03the wickets took a while to come but they lost the last four wickets for just five runs
12:10the south africans in the end australia with plenty of time
12:15in the bank australian fans on their feet here alongside the staff the coach andrew mcdonald
12:22lukey gillian a long time supporter of this team they'll have some time off they'll regroup
12:28and they'll be ready for the second test pretty comprehensive passion yet yeah the australian team
12:33really played out of the woods after the days after day one when he thought that they were
12:39well behind the eight ball matt renshaw did his part massive part 190 runs on a wicket like this
12:48and in a spot of bother that australia were in short deep character
