South Africa vs Australia , 1st Test at Kingsmead, Durban , AUS in SA, 3 Tests, 2026 , Oct 09, 2026 Scorecard 2^nd Day

137.2: Simon Harmer to Matt Renshaw, OUT! EDGED AND GONE! After the Tea break, Simon Harmer needs only two deliveries to wrap up the Australian innings, and the final wicket is the big one, Matt Renshaw. The 30-year-old falls 10 short of his maiden Test double century, but that does little to dim a phenomenal knock. Harmer lands it fuller, just outside off, and it turns sharply away from the left-hander. Renshaw lunges forward to drive, but the ball takes a huge outside edge and flies to the left of Aiden Markram, who dives and clings on to the catch at first slip. Australia have been bowled out for 390 in their first innings.

137.1: Simon Harmer to Matt Renshaw, Short, on middle, Matt Renshaw tucks it to mid-wicket.

136.6: Wiaan Mulder to Josh Hazlewood, Hazlewood survives! And that will be Tea on Day 2! Slanted into the batter, on a length, Hazlewood covers the line and stabs it down the surface watchfully.

136.5: Wiaan Mulder to Matt Renshaw, On a length outside the off stump. This is driven firmly by Renshaw to deep cover for a single.

136.4: Wiaan Mulder to Matt Renshaw, Nearly dragged on! Slightly back of a length, nipping in and skidding through. Renshaw looks to cut it away but it is too close to play that shot. He ends up chopping it off the inside edge but luckily for him, the ball bounces over the leg stump and rolls to short fine leg.

136.3: Wiaan Mulder to Matt Renshaw, On a length, on top of off. Renshaw hangs back and bunts it to the left of the bowler.
