Smith's home woes, and Kumble's growth in SA

16 - The number of Tests Jacques Kallis has missed since the start of his career. Of the 16, South Africa have won seven, drawn five and lost only four. However, the two most recent Tests that Kallis missed - in Sri Lanka this year - were both lost.

49 - The number of runs that Ashwell Prince scored on either side of the wicket, an indication that the Indian bowlers were not able to stick to a consistent line to him. His prime scoring area was behind square leg (21 runs off 18 balls) and cover point (20 off 30 balls).

14.85 - Anil Kumble's current bowling average in the series. On his previous two tours in 2001-02 and 1996-97 he averaged 48 each time. He's taken seven wickets so far in this series and has a possible three more innings in which to beat his tally of 18 wickets at 25.94 apiece on the 1992-93 tour.

64 - The number of runs South Africa scored between backward point and third man. They scored 134 of their 257 runs behind square on both sides of the wicket.

24.78 - Graeme Smith's average in 2006 after he was dismissed for five today. His average in this series so far is 6.66. At the start of 2006, Smith averaged 51.96 at home. Now that has dropped to 43.95 since seven of his eight Tests this year have been in South Africa.

22.00 - Mark Boucher's strike-rate against Anil Kumble, off whom he scored just 11 runs from 50 balls. He was far more positive against the rest of the bowlers. Boucher's strike-rate against Zaheer Khan was 100, 113.33 against Sreesanth and 92.85 against VRV Singh.

2 - That's how many Test innings Herschelle Gibbs has played at No.4. Today's 63 improved on his 47, his only other innings in that position. He dropped down the order after a pair opening the innings in the first Test at Johannesburg.

41 - The number of balls that Sreesanth bowled that were either too straight or too wide. South Africa cashed in and scored 41 off them. He bowled 63 on a good line, off which South Africa scored just 30.
