Harvey, McSweeney give South Australia chance of huge turnaround
The defending champions set 422 for a come-from-behind victory after bowling out WA for 169
By day three of the third Test in Cape Town, South Africa found themselves 140-4, trailing Australia by 40 runs. Two poor strokes from experienced players - Aiden Markram and David Bedingham - proved costly. Bedingham's second dismissal came after he top-edged a pull shot to Josh Hazlewood, repeating his mistake of the previous innings.
Despite Australia's lead, South Africa's batting order includes experienced players like Temba Bavuma and Wiaan Mulder. However, Australia's field placement and Simon Harmer's 4-104 for the Proteas suggest a challenging end to the match.
