We bit the bullet early on day one and decided to bat on that wicket, knowing it will get a bit lower and spin as the game went along.

Mike Hussey and Glenn McGrath's partnership on day two has been the defining moment of the test match. Those extra 100 runs were vital for us and gave us a first innings total that South Africa would have to bat very well to dominate the test match from that moment on.

It's been mentally draining. The emotions have been up and down all day but I'm feeling pretty good about things now.

I think there's a good chance that Glenn will be OK.
