Day 4, Stumps:

An early end to the fourth day's play with bad light playing spoilsport. Australia are 88 for 3 in a chase of 612, with Morne Morkel fighting through his injury to pick up two wickets in what is his final innings in Test cricket. Can he sign off on a high tomorrow?

End of a fighting partnership

Joe Burns departs after a gritty knock of 42. Morne Morkel bags his second wicket, trapping the opener in front. Australia are 68 for 3.

Harsh!!

I thought he played a shot there but the umpire says otherwise. Khawaja has been given out lbw. The impact was outside off but the ball came in so it would have gone onto hit the stumps. The umpire reckons the batsman didn't offer a shot but Khawaja did bring his bat down slowly. He should have had the benefit of the doubt. Australia in trouble now.

Morne strikes

Renshaw's resistance comes to an end and look who has picked his wicket? He is not totally fit but Morkel would love to go out with a bang. He takes just ten balls to strike. Morkel comes around the wicket, bowls it tad fuller and the batsman gets pinned on the front leg. That looked plumb.
