Labuschagne must beat mental block to overcome the 30s in third Test
Key points
- Australia are expected to keep Marnus Labuschagne in the side for the third Test against South Africa in Cape Town. He has not scored a century in his past 47 Test innings.
- Chief selector George Bailey said there appears to be a block around scores in the 30s, but Labuschagne is still helping the team. Teammate Usman Khawaja suggested the problem may be mental rather than technical.
- Matt Renshaw is expected to open in place of the dropped Nic Maddinson.
