... RUN CHASE ...

South Africa were decent too on this batting track. They knew it wasn't going to be easy on this wicket but their bowlers stuck to the plans and chipped in with wickets at regular intervals. Ottneil Baartman and Andile Phehlukwayo took two wickets each but the pick of the bowers was Lizaad Williams who scalped 4 wickets. South Africa have batted well this series but haven't chased a score yet. This would be a different test for their batters but they are in good form so expect them to take the game all the way. Stay tuned for the chase.

For the first time Ireland have batted their full quota in this series and they have done reasonably well too. The top four made a massive contributions. Starting with the openers who struggled previously but today they added 100 runs on top. Andy Balbirnie looked rusty for his 45 while Paul Stirling was at his best as he fell just short of 12 for his ton. Curtis Campher thrn played a handy innings however, it was Tector's valuable innings that helped Ireland get past 280.
