Advantage South Africa as Aussies succumb to Steyn Gun

Dale Steyn ensured that Australia's opening woes continued as he sent back debutant Phil Hughes for a duck and Katich followed soon after. With Morkel taking out Mr Cricketer Mike Hussey, Australia were in danger of falling back early in this crucial first Test. It was not to be as Captain-Vice Captain duo of Ponting and Clarke struck a century partnership while taking the attack to the opposition. A complete misjudgement on Ponting's part and needless stroke by Clarke saw them surrendering back their advantage. At the end of day's play keeper Haddin and debutant North ensured there were no further hiccups and Australia ended the day in a much better fashion than it had begun for them.
