34.1 OUT! IN THE AIR AND GONE! The entertainment from Travis Head is over! From around the wicket, this slides across the left-hander, on a length, Head charges down the track to go down the ground. Loses his shape in the process and it gets sliced towards long off. Dewald Brevis settles under the skier to take a safe catch. Maharaj walks up to Head to congratulate him on what has been a superlative knock. Travis gets a standing ovation from the Mackay crowd. The 250-run opening stand is broken. Travis Head falls for 142 (103). 250/1

36.3 OUT! CAUGHT! Mitchell Marsh departs after a well-made century. Looks to go big on the leg side with a slog sweep, but skies it up off a top edge towards the square leg region, as Muthusamy hangs it up, full and around the leg stump. The keeper, Ryan Rickelton, does well to run towards his left and takes a good catch diving forward. Both openers back in the hut in quick succession. Marsh falls for 100 (106). 267/2

2 OUT! EDGED AND GONE! Sean Abbott draws first blood! He sets up the batter nicely here. He shaped it back in on the previous balls, but now serves this full and around off away from the eyeline of the batter, gets it to shape away this time. Aiden Markram, who was clearly struggling, thinks this is a scoring opportunity and goes for the big booming drive. Gets a thin outside edge towards second slip where Cameron Green takes a sharp catch around his midriff. Early blow for SA! 11/1

| Ryan Rickelton Wk | 11 | 12 | 2 | 0 | 91.66 |

4.2 OUT! TAKEN! Soft dismissal and Xavier Bartlett gets his first wicket now! He serves this fuller and shapes it into the pads. Ryan Rickelton looks to flick it away but his head falls over to the off side and he fails to keep the shot down. Hits it straight to square leg where Cooper Connolly takes a dolly. Both the openers are back in the hut now! 31/2

| Temba Bavuma C | 19 | 10 | 4 | 0 | 190 |
|
5.5 OUT! DRAGGED ON! One shot too many for Temba Bavuma! Hard length and on middle, skids through a bit. Bavuma takes a step down and looks to pull it away but the length is not that short for the shot. He ends up getting an inside edge onto his back thigh, and the ball then deflects onto the off stump to remove a bail. South Africa are 39/3 now! 39/3

| Tony de Zorzi | 33 | 30 | 6 | 0 | 110 |

13.3 OUT! CAUGHT in the deep! And Cooper Connolly gets straight into the act with his third delivery. Drops it on the shorter side, at the stumps, and Tony de Zorzi rocks back to swat it away over deep mid-wicket, but fails to get the desired connection as he hits it from the bottom of the bat. He holes out to Alex Carey in deep, who runs forward and takes a good catch on his knees. Half the side back in the dugout for South Africa. 107/5

| Tristan Stubbs | 1 | 6 | 0 | 0 | 16.66 |

8.1 OUT! TAKEN! Xavier Bartlett has two now! It is going from bad to worse for South Africa. Fuller delivery and around off, Tristan Stubbs uses his feet and looks to drive it away. He connects well but does so aerially and fails to get it in the gap. Sean Abbott at cover moves quickly to his right and takes a sharp catch. South Africa are four down now! 50/4

| Dewald Brevis | 49 | 28 | 2 | 5 | 175 |
|
17.2 OUT! CAUGHT! 'Catch it' is the cry and Cameron Green answers the call! Dewald Brevis admonishes himself as he trudges off. Darted into the right-hander from around the wicket, on the fuller side, Brevis plants his front foot forward and ends up getting too close to the ball. Swings to go down the ground but ends up slicing it straight down the throat of long off where Cameron Green is in a few yards off the ropes. Green grabs it in reverse-cup style over his head. Brevis falls for an entertaining 49 (28). 124/6

| Wiaan Mulder | 5 | 12 | 0 | 0 | 41.66 |
|
19.2 OUT! CAUGHT! Spectacular grab by Marnus Labuschagne! Looped up by Cooper, full and on middle, Mulder winds up and swings to blast it down the ground. Fails to get under the ball properly to get the elevation. Hits it hard but flat and it travels quickly to long on. Marnus charges in off the ropes and dives full-length in front. Goes at it with both hands and the ball ends up sticking in the left hand. Wiaan is asked to wait as the third umpire checks the fairness of the catch. The replays confirm that Labsuchagne managed to get his hands under the ball and scooped it cleanly inches above the turf. Third wicket for Cooper Connolly and South Africa lose their 7th wicket. 135/7

| Corbin Bosch | 17 | 15 | 2 | 0 | 113.33 |
|
21.3 OUT! TAKEN! Another fine catch by Marnus Labuschagne! Cooper Connolly adds another wicket to his tally. Floated up from around the wicket, full and on middle and leg, Bosch plants his front foot forward and lofts it down the ground. Fails to get enough elevation to clear Marnus Labuschagne at long on. Labuschagne is a step or two away from the fence there. Times the jump to perfection and holds onto the catch while ensuring that he stays away from the rope. 145/8

| Keshav Maharaj | 2 | 13 | 0 | 0 | 15.38 |

23.5 OUT! STUMPED! Cooper Connolly gets his 5-fer! Maharaj runs down the track and Cooper Connolly is smart enough to pull his length back, around the off stump. Keshav Maharaj is nowhere near the pitch of the ball and swings across. The ball sneaks under the bat and Josh Inglis collects it neatly on his right to whip off the bails in quick time. 154/9

24.5 OUT! CAUGHT! All over for South Africa! Zampa switches to around the wicket and pushes it through, flatter and shorter, around the off stump. Kwena Maphaka goes for the reverse sweep but the ball catches him on the glove and lobs in front of Travis Head at a shortish backward point. Head runs in and dives in front to complete the catch. Adam gets on the wickets column. Australia complete a drubbing as they win by 276 runs and avoid a whitewash! 155/10
