Perhaps more than is ordinarily the case, the spectre of defeat will be particularly unpalatable for SA and India as they go into the third and deciding cricket Test that starts at Newlands today (10.30am).

Hard-earned reputations are at stake in both set-ups as defeat, and thus a series loss, may have serious implications in both camps.

Though it required a huge effort to keep the series alive, there was the sentiment, even expressed by coach Mark Boucher, that they were far from perfect. What is clear, however, from SA's past five Tests at Newlands, is that their lower order needs some solidifying. In their past five Tests in the shadow of Table Mountain against England, Pakistan, Australia, India and Sri Lanka their last five wickets have, on average, fallen for the addition of 108 runs.
