Agree 100% EB, other than Marnus our batting is technically awful and decent bowling - spin or pace - shows it up very quickly. The art of batting has been lost - playing yourself in, batting to the flow of the game etc.
And I agree the pitch was bowler friendly, but the batting was awful. Simply awful. If Australia had of bowled well on day one instead of tolerably SA could have been for far, far fewer. I don't think either side played well - batting ineptitude was the main thing I took from the test.
