"“It was a case of mission accomplished with the ball, at least, even if a topsy-turvy opening day that saw 14 wickets fall ended with Australia in the ascendancy.”"
"“It helps to have a bowler with the qualities of Rabada, who claimed five for 51, but Bavuma still shuffled his pack shrewdly.”"
In the World Test Championship final, South Africa faced scrutiny over their selection but proved their worth by taking early wickets, dismissing Australia for 212. Led by Kagiso Rabada, who took five wickets, South Africa started strong with the ball. However, their batting faltered, with the team only managing 43 for four at the close of the first day. Captain Temba Bavuma managed to score 72 but found himself under pressure as wickets fell quickly. The team needs to overcome a 169-run deficit to remain competitive in the match.
