Australia relied on their reserve strength to beat South Africa
by 15 runs at Kingsmead, Durban, on Saturday and level the
seven-match series at 2-2. The tourists posted a moderate total
of 211, a score captain Ian Healy typified as "a 60-40 score".

But it was mainly thanks to a fighting 77 from Adam Gilchrist,
who only joined the tour when Healy was suspended for two
matches, that Australia passed the 200 mark after they lost the
wickets of Stuart Law, Steve Waugh and Michael Bevan for just
one run.

The total was to prove more than adequate despite a last-ditch
41 not out from man-of-the-match Shaun Pollock. For Australia,
it was again another back-up player who did most of the damage,
Andrew Bichel taking three for 43.
