South Africa resumed on 262 for four, with Kallis on 112 and JP Duminy on 38, and endured a troubled morning as both overnight batsmen were dismissed after adding 124 runs for the fifth wicket.
Kallis edged Jimmy Anderson to Paul Collingwood at second slip and Duminy edged off-spinner Graeme Swann to the same fielder to give Collingwood his fourth catch of the innings and a share of the England record.
Duminy was, however, able to go to his third Test half-century before falling for 56.
Mark Boucher survived some stormy moments to reach 29 not out at the break, Graham Onions` weak effort to catch a top-edged hook off Stuart Broad giving the South African wicketkeeper a reprieve on 25.
Morne Morkel was on eight not out, making it to the sanctuary of the changing room two balls after calling for an umpire decision review which overturned Swann`s successful lbw appeal against him.

Swann looked dangerous, occasionally obtaining sharp turn, and had picked up three wickets for 65 runs in 30 overs.

Malaysia vs Vietnam
Malaysia vs Vietnam, Probably for the first time ever, I am proud of our football team. Trust me, I’ve watched LOADS of local football – club and country alike. The game vs host nation Laos was fantastic with 3 very well executed goals – I thought the teams looked slightly fatigued in the final, but the tactic by Rajagopal was correct – we counter attacked in the first, and went all out in the second. I loved how the boys held on and never gave up or buckled under pressure, that is usually the case with Malaysians when it comes to their favourite sport, ie football and badminton – they were tough, and they won, and they deserved it, ending our 20 year gold drought. Me alongside millions of others are surely elated, and I hope this is a sign of good things to come – I just hope that they don’t think this is enough, that there is more to work on and we can be better
