I've only had 4 hours sleep!!!!
Australia score 434 off their 50 overs and then SA wins scoring 9 for 438 with one ball remaining. Sweet Jesus!!!!
How small is the ground!!!

One of the largest in South Africa?
Mate...one of the boundaries is only about 40m from the pitch!!
I'm used to grounds like the MCG and the Gabba

It is about the second or third largest of the test grounds. My apologies. However, remember that a smaller circumference is also easier to defend. Also, if you look at the way both sides were smacking the ball around(including many of the sixes) the boundary could have been considerably further away and it would have made no difference. |

The pitch looked as smooth as a pool table.
I very much doubt that Shane Warne would have been able to turn the ball there
