Standard Bank Proteas bowler, Vernon Philander, says the rest of the attack will be ‘motivated to deliver’ in Dale Steyn’s absence after the fast bowler was ruled out of the current Test match against Australia at the WACA ground in Perth due to a right shoulder injury. For now, the focus remains on the batsmen who are building on a second innings lead, which stands at 102 with eight wickets in hand, but when the opportunity arises Philander says every bowler will be eager to step up to the challenge.Philander says the unit had an honest feedback session following last night’s poor execution, which showed in their determined performance to restrict Australia to their biggest batting collapse in Australia, 10 wickets for 86 runs. Philander finished with figures of 4/56, redemption after picking up the wicket of David Warner off a no-ball in Thursday’s final session.Dean Elgar (46 not out) and JP Duminy (34 not out) will lead the counter-attack on day three with the score on 104/2.
