Australia lead South Africa by 387 runs

Australia lead South Africa by 387 runs at lunch on day four of the third Test in Cape Town.

Australia have moved into a dominant position against South Africa at lunch on day four of the third Test in Cape Town.

David Warner hit an unbeaten 92 as the Baggy Greens extended their lead to 387 runs.

Australia began the fourth day with openers Warner and Chris Rogers at the crease, and the pair quickly took their side past the 100-mark as South Africa struggled to make an impact with the ball.

Graeme Smith's side claimed their first wicket when Rogers was run out on 38 by Dale Steyn.

Alex Doolan provided steady support for Warner, who scored runs at a quick pace to help Australia reach 180-1 at the end of the morning session.

They will resume after lunch with Warner and Doolan (36*) in the middle.
