S Africa stumble against the seamers

November 09, 2007 00:00:00


South Africa had to fight and scrape for every run as they reached 161 for 5 at tea on the first day of the first Test at The Wanderers.
It was in the main attritional, fascinating cricket, the only shame being that so few bothered to turn out to watch it, according to website cricinfo.
