South Africa were bowled out for 266, losing their last six wickets for 25 runs on a good pitch before bad light prevented the start of Australia's first innings.
Needing a win to share the honours after South Africa won the first Test in Cape Town by eight wickets, a depleted Australian bowling attack could not have hoped for a better day after losing the toss.
Siddle finished as Australia's most successful bowler, taking three for 69, while spinners Lyon and captain Michael Clarke both took two wickets.
