Rabada scripts stunning South Africa turnaround
Print Edition
SKIPPER Faf du Plessis hailed one of the best wins of his career after Kagiso Rabada’s five-wicket haul led South Africa to a remarkable turnaround victory in the first test against Australia yesterday.
Set a victory target of 539, the home side’s second innings ended on 361 on the final day, handing the visitors victory by 177 runs and maintaining their unbeaten record in four tests at Perth’s WACA Ground. The victory looked unthinkable when Australia was 158-0 early on day two in reply to South Africa’s 242, and especially when the visitors lost strike bowler Dale Steyn to a shoulder injury. It was Australia’s fourth straight test loss, after being beaten in all three tests on its July-August tour of Sri Lanka, and the first time it had lost the opening test of its home season since 1988.
