RT @abcsport: A day of two halves! 😲 Labouring badly after sending South Africa in to bat, with the hosts 0/158 shortly after lunch, the Aussies managed to bowl them out by stumps on day one! Here's our wrap from Cape Town. Listen to the Grandstand at Stumps pod here: #RSAvAUS

RT @abcsport: After eight years behind the mic, Ed Cowan has played his final innings as co-host of the ABC Cricket Podcast, before stepping up to the Cricket Australia board. To send Teddy off in style, Corbin and the team asked listeners to send in personal messages, then played them for him as a surprise during his last episode with us. Here’s how he reacted after hearing your messages. Thanks Teddy, and go well, mate. Hear your messages to Ed, plus the rest of his final ABC Cricket Podcast episode:

RT @NedHewitson: Brings a tear to my eye @CorbinMiddlemas. Vale @eddiecowan

Marnus Labuschagne only batter without the pads on so far. Beau Webster has been batting most of the session so far. As have Green and Inglis. #RSAvAUS @abcsport

Marnus batting now in centre wicket net, interchanging with Cooper Connolly Cummins, McDonald and Smith in conversation behind the net

RT @BenCameron23: Labuschagne has not batted two days out from the third Test in Cape Town. Locked in lengthy discussions with Andrew McDonald and Steve Smith.

Light shower sweeps across St George’s Park half an hour before the start of play on D5. Phil Jaques’ weather app tells us 50% chain of rain until noon, clearing up after 1pm local. @abcsport #RSAvAUS

RT @BenCameron23: First time Nathan Lyon has been left out of a red ball Test (when available) since 2013 @abcsport

throw it to four 🫡

Pat Cummins doesn't have an XI either, also citing weather and will wait until the toss. All bowlers available for selection after 4 day turnaround. @abcsport

Bavuma tells press no XI at this stage, will wait until the toss/on the weather. Confirms Rabada available for selection. #RSAvAUS @abcsport

Bavuma says Nortje available for selection, pulled up well

Michael Neser warming up, no Smith in the warm up. Hit by Nortje when batting earlier today @abcsport

RT @dean_plessis: An absolute pleasure listening to @abcsport @CorbinMiddlemas @NeilManthorp and the rest of the commentary team.

RT @BenCameron23: Josh Inglis has rejoined the Australian team and was out on Kingsmead pre-play on day three. Cam Green did some fitness work as he tries to return from his abdominal strain. On air now via @abcsport on ABC Listen.

RT @BenCameron23: No Kagiso Rabada for South Africa in the first Test. Temba Bavuma says they have taken the “conservative route” with his hamstring injury. Anrich Nortje will play his first Test in nearly four years. @abcsport

RT @BenCameron23: 1) Two old Sutherland teammates catching up 2) Pink grip Marnie is back 3) Noah Anderson an interested onlooker 4) Wally Grout’s blazer from the 1962-63 tour in the Kingsmeade museum

Jaspa Fletcher on @abcsport: I was crook as a dog, I was sitting in bed sweating at one stage. Thanks to the club doctors for getting me here. #AFLGF

After Voss put Freo 17 up at the 23 minute mark of Q4: 21-12 disposals, 4.0 to 0.0, Will Ashcroft had 5 of Brisbane’s 21 disposals in crunch time #AFLGF @abcsport

3 of his 5 disposals were score involvements

RT @abcsport: Steve Smith's superlative slipwork, and how can the Aussies best set up a win in fading light? Our wrap from day three of the first Test in Durban! Hear every ball of Australia's tour of South Africa, live and ad free, on ABC listen: #SAvAUS
