Josh Inglis scored an unbeaten 85 as Australia reached 330-4 at the close of the second day of the decisive third Test against South Africa at Newlands on Wednesday. Australia are one run ahead of South Africa's 329 and in control of the match.

Inglis, replacing injured Steve Smith, shared an unbroken 145-run fifth-wicket stand with Alex Carey (51 not out). South Africa toiled as all Australian batters except Marnus Labuschagne (0) contributed.

Matt Renshaw and Travis Head (41) added 58 before Simon Harmer (2-84) dismissed both Head and Labuschagne. Renshaw and Cameron Green then put on 126 before Marco Jansen (2-37) removed them. The series is level at 1-1; the winner will claim the No.1 Test ranking.
