An unbeaten double century from Daniel Drew and fine work from Nathan McAndrew and Wes Agar have South Australia into a commanding position In their Sheffield Shield clash against Western Australia.

SA ended day two at Adelaide Oval on 2 for 31, giving them an overall lead of 307. Drew, unbeaten on 208 when SA declared at 7 for 438 at lunch, was trapped lbw for 4 by Matthew Kelly in the final over of the day.

Drew accumulated 25 boundaries in his 345-ball first innings, which far exceeded his previous best first-class score of 130.

He featured in an unbroken eighth-wicket stand of 78 with McAndrew, who blasted four sixes in an innings of 56 off 59 balls.
