Jacques Kallis scored 76 and Morne Morkel took four for 22 as South Africa beat Australia by 80 runs in the second one-day international to level the three-match series in Port Elizabeth. Four of the hosts' top six recorded half-centuries as they reached an imposing 303 for six before bowling their opponents out for 223 with David Warner the best of the Australians with a knock of 74. Michael Hussey and Steven Smith were the next highest scorers with 37 and 26 respectively with Australia hampered by Shane Watson's limited participation due to injury.
Although he managed to bowl 3.5 overs and came in to bat fifth, making 15, it was always going to be a tough task for the tourists without their star man and the South African attack took full advantage. As well as Morkel's fine effort from 10 overs, Lonwabo Tsotsobe completed with two for 32 and Dale Steyn two for 57 with Johan Botha taking the other wicket. Kallis led the way in the Proteas' innings with 76 while Graeme Smith (57), JP Duminy (56) and David Millar (59) also made effective contributions.
Smith and Kallis then put on 142 for the second wicket, while in the process collecting their 44th and 83rd ODI half-centuries, respectively. Duminy and Miller put on 107 runs in just 15.2 overs. Warner and Hussey put on 71.Warner got a top edge to Morkel's delivery with Boucher catch the ball over his shoulder for his 400th catch as South Africa wicketkeeper. Watson hit a six and a four before Tsotsobe delivered a slower ball which the Australian hit to Botha at deep square leg and Steven Smith went for 26, caught by Duminy off Morkel.
