Man of the match was South African batsman Faf Du Plessis who followed up his first innings 78 with an unbeaten century today.
He batted all day today and some of yesterday and this was his first test match.
Australia had there chances to win but it wasn't to be.
A memorable test match with some amazing individual performances and also sheer grit from both teams.
I think it was appropriate it was a draw.
Now it's to Perth on Friday for the last of the three test series.
I won't be there.
Here are some more pics from today taken on my Canon 600d.
