Meanwhile, David Warner and Usman Khawaja strides out to the middle to open for the hosts. It will be Kagiso Rabada to start with the new ball.

... SECOND INNINGS ...

The whole of Melbourne Cricket Ground is on its feet here to applaud a stunning spell from Cameron Green who walks out with the ball in hand after recording his first ever five-wicket haul in Test cricket that too it comes in a Boxing Day Test match. It couldn't have gotten any better than this for Green. This session started completely on a different note, as the pair of Kyle Verreynne and Marco Jansen played a really good knock. Both players scored their respective half-centuries, the only two batters who stood out for the Proteas. Although, once this stand was broken. The tail was ripped apart single-handedly by Cameron Green. Australia would be really happy with the position they are in. Once again South Africa find themselves in a tricky situation. They need a solid start with the ball in hand and they have a capable enough bowling attack to trouble the batters. Do join us for the second innings shortly.

OUT! TIMBER! FIVE-FER FOR GREEN! He has destroyed the South African lower middle-order here. This time he bowls it fuller and around off, straightens a bit, Lungi Ngidi makes room and tries to drive again, but misses the ball completely and loses his off pole. South Africa have been bowled out for 189!

OUT! TAKEN! Another one bites the dust! Nathan Lyon gets his first wicket now. He filghts this one up, full and on off, Keshav Maharaj looks to take him on and goes for the big shot, but he miscues it badly as the ball flies in the air behind mid off where Pat Cummins trackbacks a bit, settles under it and completes the catch. South Africa are just throwing their wickets away here.

OUT! CHOPPED ON! Cameron Green gets another one in this over! He picks up his fourth wicket and Australia have made a good comeback in this game.

The ball takes the inside edge and rattle onto the stumps. Kagiso Rabada just stays there in disappointment. South Africa eight down now!
