You would have thought 288 runs to win would be quite gettable. Not for Australia. I would have been disappointed if Australia lost by 50 or less runs. But to not even reach half the required runs is pathetic.

Australia is going to lose their supporter base, unless they can learn how to have batsmen score big and freely.

We lost.

https://www.foxsports.com.au/cricket/australia-vs-south-africa-live-cricket-scor...

Australia have been humiliated in Cape Town. Again.

An emphatic 176-run loss to South Africa following a disastrous fifth day collapse for 111 to turn what seemed a thrilling deciding Test into a local rout continues the tourists’ recent trend of calamity at the foot of Table Mountain.

This wasn’t as stunning as the infamous 47 all out at Newlands 15 years ago.

Nor does it have the magnitude of the ball-tampering scandal which burst to life in 2018 and had brutal consequences for both the playing group and Cricket Australia as a whole.

But the significance of a disastrous first session in which the team slumped to 6/42 in the face of an inspired new-ball spell from Kagiso Rabada and some abject batting in tough but far from unplayable conditions cannot be ignored.

Nearly 2 years of not much. Aussies made the mistake of going into their shell for a draw and it backfired. Well done South Africa 🇿🇦
