balance for me, occasional innings defeat is exciting, but not all the time

A draw can also be exciting when a team realyl battles hard for it.

Lets be honest, SA did well yesterday, but they never really struggled once the first pair managed to do nothing stupid for the first hour.

I remember some cracking draws, with teams celebrating the escape like a win. Yesterday never felt like that.
Don't get me wrong, a draw in the next test would probably be a hell of a lot more entertaining, will be a bit of life in the wicket.
