South Africa managed to set the highest score in world cricket recently (438) - playing against the second best team in the world - Australia!
That was a year ago; hardly recent. Back then they had less to lose because we were number one. Besides, SA have had a pretty poor away record.

And the thing with Woolmer is definitely sad. People may not always have agreed with him, but he was definitely a universally respected coach and an erudite sportsman.
