Australia v South Africa, second Test: captain's innings from captain Graeme Smith keeps Proteas in the game After registering a record fourth double century of the year on a day when Australia scored 482 runs, Clarke would have hoped for more of the same today. But it was not to be as, in the fifth over of the day, he was trapped on the crease and bowled by Morkel, who then got Matthew Wade to edge behind moments after Australia had passed 500. Rory Kleinveldt claimed his first Test wicket as Peter Siddle edged to Smith at first slip, before Morkel got his fifth of the innings when Ben Hilfenhaus top-edged a hook. That meant Australia had slipped from 482 for four to 504 for nine, but Pattinson prolonged the innings as he took a liking to leg-spinner Imran Tahir. So tortured by the specialist batsmen yesterday, his two overs cost him 21 runs including two big hits over the leg-side boundary from Pattinson. Faf du Plessis fluffed an easy chance, but it did not prove too costly as Pattinson edged Dale Steyn two overs later and Smith held a juggling catch at slip. Pattinson had no success with the ball, though, Smith taking three fours off his third over, two of them clipped through the leg side. When Petersen took two more boundaries off the quick bowler's next over, Clarke turned to the spin of Nathan Lyon, which succeeded in slowing the run-rate, and South Africa edged past 50 just before drinks. Smith greeted Hilfenhaus' return to the attack by driving him for four, but he should have been dismissed when Clarke brought himself on to bowl and drew a false stroke from his opposite number as he advanced down the pitch. Wade missed the stumping. Smith took advantage to reach 50 just before tea and went on to make a century. He lost opening partner Petersen when he was run out by Michael Hussey and Hashim Amla was stumped by Wade off David Warner for 11. But with Smith on 111 and Rudolph looking set much will depend on how South Africa start the third day as they look to haul themselves back into the match.
