Bavuma's triumph of application flips second Test on Aussies
Key points
- South African captain Temba Bavuma scored 179 runs at Gqeberha, batting for more than nine hours to frustrate Australia in the second Test. His innings came after the hosts had slumped to 6-110.
- Marco Jansen made 85 and Simon Harmer made 82, adding a South African eighth-wicket record of 183 runs with Bavuma's support. Rain had reduced the match's playing time, and the hosts declared their first innings in the twilight.
- Bavuma's century was his fifth in Tests.
