A muted chorus of boos greeted Australia when stand-in captain Tim Paine led the team out at the start of play against South Africa today in the wake of a ball-tampering scandal.
Paine was made captain for the rest of the third Test -- which has reached the fourth day -- at Newlands after regular captain Steve Smith and vice-captain David Warner were stood down following Saturday's revelations.
Although all tickets for the day had been sold, the ground was only about a third full at the start of play. Some boos could be heard but a loud public address system was played until the Australians had taken their places on the field.
Former Australia captain Allan Border said in SuperSport television's build-up to the day's play that he was "angry and embarrassed" by Saturday's events.
Australian leg-spinning great Shane Warne also spoke of his ire.
"I am disappointed in Steve Smith as captain to take that decision to go out and try to do this."
"The leadership group knew about it," Smith said. "I'm not proud of what happened."
