Quick hits: AFL star in the sheds as Aussies go better than Bradman

Key points

  • Matt Renshaw ended a wait of more than nine years for a Test century on day two of the first Test against South Africa in Durban. He reached 190 before being dismissed just short of a double century.
  • Nathan Lyon stayed with him for a record ninth-wicket stand of 134 runs, the best of its kind for Australia against South Africa. The recovery lifted Australia from 6-124 to 390, its best rebuild since 1925.
  • Lyon was dismissed shortly after, despite reviewing a decision he knew he had lost.
