South Africa vs Australia 3rd Test: Menners Minutes Day 1 'Starc Blitz'
Menners breaks down a dramatic opening day in Cape Town as South Africa were bowled out for 329 after recovering from a spectacular collapse. Mitchell Starc’s stunning six-wicket haul gave Australia a lifeline, but Pat Cummins’ decision to bowl first, Australia’s disastrous opening session and concerns about the captain’s workload raise serious questions ahead of a must-win Test. With Australia’s batting lineup under pressure, day two could make or break the series.
