New Zealand 15 for 2 (Williamson 2*, Taylor 2*, Steyn 2-3) trail South Africa 263 (Amla 53, Wagner 3-47, Boult 3-52) by 248 runsScorecard and ball-by-ball detailsLooks deceived at Kingsmead when despite blue skies and sunshine, no play was possible on day three. A wet outfield, which has not recovered from the recent relaying process, took 65mm of rain overnight and did not dry out over the course of the morning and early afternoon. It has received a full day of sunshine and, barring any further mishaps, should be ready for play on Monday morning.Dale Steyn, Vernon Philander and the rest of South Africas attack will find conditions completely different to what they were when they took the field on Saturday afternoon. The overcast skies and persistent drizzle have moved away and after a full day of sun, the pitch would have flattened out.After rain interrupted play on Saturday afternoon, a steady drizzle turned into a downpour and although the showers had abated by 6am, the outfield was covered with water. Conditions improved significantly between then and 9:30, when it was announced that the morning session would be lost and an inspection would take place at noon.The umpires asked for no artificial measures to be used in drying the outfield in that time, preferring to use the natural processes of sunlight and wind. The super-sopper was not brought out because the muddy patches were too soft and using it would only have worsened the damp outfield.By 12pm, there was further improvement but areas outside the square - which were in pristine condition - and along the perimeter of the outfield, where scant grass had left the sandy patches exposed, were still too wet. Underfoot conditions were deemed treacherous, and a second inspection was planned for 2pm. Even then, the damp patches had not improved enough for play to resume.Of particular concern were patches where puddles had gathered at the edge of the covers, which will lead to questions over the number of covers at Kingsmead. Currently, Kingsmeads covers keep the pitch and square protected but do not extend to the rest of the outfield. It is estimated that Kwa-Zulu Natal Cricket Union would need around R400,000 (US$30,000) to better protect the ground. Should cricket be played in winter again, that investment may have to be made but this time, few would have expected it was needed.Winter rainfall has been prevalent this year despite it being an unusual occurrence in Durban. In the last three weeks, the same amount of rain has fallen that the city usually gets over the three months from August to October. The excessive rain, along with the delayed start to the relaying of the outfield which took place in June, left the outfield unable to cope with the unexpected moisture. Light was also a concern with early sunsets threatening to eat away at playing time, but play continued until 5:20pm on the first day. Still, 12.2 overs were lost on day one and 68 on day two, bringing the total number of overs lost to 170.2.Still, 180 overs remain and with good weather forecast for the next two days, there may be enough time for a result other than a draw. Sundays tickets will be valid for the remaining two days or for a Dolphins domestic match later this season. Zapatillas Balenciaga Baratas España .

Sydney FC goalkeeper Danny Vukovic says Melbourne Citys Bruno Fornaroli will go down as the best striker the A-League has seen, but is backing his defence to do the job in the FFA Cup final.He didnt enter the A-League with the same fanfare or list of accomplishments as other import forwards including Alessandro Del Piero and Robbie Fowler, but Uruguayan Fornaroli has quickly made his mark.He set an A-League all-time season goalscoring record of 23 in 2015-16 and leads the way in the current campaign with seven in eight games.Fornaroli looms as a key figure in Wednesday nights much-anticipated FFA Cup decider at Melbournes AAMI Park.between the top two sides on the A-League ladder.Bruno, I think, will eventually go down as the best (striker) that weve seen in the A-League, Vukovic said on Monday.I know thats a big call because theres been some great ones in the league but what hes done in the short time that hes been here has been pretty amazing.Its obviously our job on Wednesday night to keep him quiet.Vukovic has plenty of faith in the Sydney defence with the Sky Blues conceding a league-best of just three goals in eight games.I think everyone knows that defensively were a very strong unit so were backing ourselves to go to Melbbourne and bring the cup home.dddddddddddd Vukovic said.The confident custodian said hed back himself to score a spot- kick if the game went to penalties.Sydney coach Graham Arnold has stated since the pre-season that the Sky Blues had to break their six-year trophy drought this season, but Vukovic said there would be pressure on both sides on Wednesday.We want to be the playing group that bring a trophy to Sydney, Vukovic said.He played in the two previous FFA Cup finals, finishing runner-up with Perth in 2015 and a winner with Melbourne Victory last year.I think it (the FFA Cup) has a lot of potential to get even bigger, Vukovic said.It captures the heart of the football fans seeing the NPL sides play and it gives opportunity to the semi-professional players.Among those is goalkeeper Chris Oldfield who Sydney have signed as an injury replacement for Vukovics backup Vedran Janjetovic.He (Janjetovic) has asked for some time way to deal with some personal things and its important that we as a playing group and everyone else gives him his privacy while he deals with what hes going through, Vukovic said.
