Test MatchesBrilliant effort by the Proteas....will rank alongside the Windies defeat in 1995 to Aus as a major turning point in the history of cricket.
Yeah man, great victory by the Proteas. Puts the choking tag to bed. The Aussies looked stunned.
What a win..against the odds....AB and Kallis were unbelievable today.
