South Africa wrapped up a nine wicket victory over Australia in Melbourne today to clinch their three match series. The Proteas had few problems in reaching 183 for the loss of only Graeme Smith, who fell lbw to Nathan Hauritz for 75. That left Neil McKenzie and Hashim Amla to see South Africa home and condemn Australia to their first home series defeat in 16 years. It was also the visitors` first ever series win in Australia. The home side now face the prospect of a whitewash, having lost the first Test in Perth. The final Test begins in Sydney on Saturday.
