Australia all out for their 4th lowest Test total against SA

Australia collapsed to their fourth lowest total in Test cricket, managing a paltry 47 in their second innings against South Africa here Thursday.

In fact, Australia were on the verge of being bowled out for the lowest ever Test total when they were 21/9, still five shy of New Zealand's 26 all out against England in 1955, but Peter Siddle (12) and Nathan Lyon (14) added 26 runs for the last wicket to save them the ignominy.
