SA vs AUS 3rd Test Prediction, Match Preview And Playing XIs

SA vs AUS 3rd Test, Cricket Tips: From 110/6 in the first innings to a win by an innings and 31 runs, South Africa showed why they are the current WTC mace holder. The Proteas, under the captaincy of Temba Bavuma, have humiliated Australia in the second test in Gqeberha to level the series. Bavuma slammed an excellent century and laid the foundation. Kagiso Rabada's return boosted the South African bowling unit, and it reflected in their performance. For Australia, it was a test to forget, and they will be gutted with their performance. The series decider will be held at New Lands in Cape Town between October 27 and 31, starting at 2 PM IST. The series is a place in the WTC final, and points are on the line.
