Prince puts SA on top

Ashwell Prince (150) and Jacques Kallis (109*) scored centuries to help South Africa move into a strong position on the second day of the third Test against Australia on Friday. The hosts ended the day on 404 for three,stretching their lead to 195.

Umpire Asad Rauf originally ruled the single that took Kallis from 99 to 100 had been a leg-bye,but later changed it to a run after third umpire Billy Bowden confirmed the batsman had hit it.

Prince was controversially dismissed after tea when third umpire Billy Bowden overturned Steve Bucknors not out decision as the Australians appealed for a catch down the leg side,believing the left-hander had got a glove to a delivery from Ben Hilfenhaus.

Brief scores: Australia 209 (S. Katich 55) vs South Africa 404/3 (A Prince 150,Amla 46,J Kallis 102*)
