Fortunately for Australia, Green and Renshaw – batsmen who are emerging as key figures for a team in transition – made important contributions, while long-time fringe hitter Inglis dialed back his talents, completing 85 balls instead of 111. But not everything was rosy with number 1.
3 Marnus Labuschagne’s Test career hangs in the balance after falling in love with a duck. Renshaw and Travis Head had started Australia’s first innings with a dynamic partnership of 58 runs. Their hopes of putting together Australia’s first century opening partnership since the 2023 Ashes tour were dashed by the introduction of off-spinner Simon Harmer in the 18th over.
He had Head on the 41 chopping at his stumps in a customary delivery, which resulted in Labuschagne coming to the crease, having been lucky to survive the ax following a prolonged loss of form. Labuschagne pushed his fifth delivery from Harmer to the first miscue, with scrutiny of his place in the team expected to intensify. Matt Renshaw recognizes his half-century, South Africa v Australia, 3rd Test, CE Town, Day 2, October 28, 2026. Green and Renshaw were not perfect and were lucky as they were both hit to the body by short deliveries.
But they fought hard and kept the scoreboard ticking with consistent boundaries and alternating shots. Green returned after missing the first two Tests with an abdominal injury and has enjoyed playing at No.1. 4 in place of the injured Steven Smith.
This is his batting position for Western Australia in the Sheffield Shield, but he had only batted six in 62 innings of Test cricket there – although he did make a career-best 174* with four against New Zealand in 2024. Australia had established a strong position at 184 for 2 in their first innings before a pumped-up Marco Jansen was able to overhaul Renshaw on 74, a decision overturned by DRS. Renshaw’s 139-ball knock ended in dispointment when he attempted an ill-advised uppercut to a short delivery. Replays confirmed a slight advantage, giving Jansen his 100th Test wicket.
With his tail in the air, Jansen Green then slipped to 65, but Inglis and Carey held on until the final session and scored. It was a particularly remarkable performance from Inglis, who was able to shake off the rust after returning from a finger injury that had ruled him out of the first two Tests. His last red-ball match came in the Sheffield Shield in March.
South Africa’s players couldn’t find much movement and there was no trace of the menacing momentum that Mitchell Starc generated during his extraordinary six-wicket burst in the final session of the first day. They expected Harmer to be a threat and he and Jansen shared the four wickets. Spearhead Kagiso Rabada struggled all day to finish with 0 for 81 from 18 overs and he must get an early start on day three or South Africa will have their eyes on the gun.
After Starc’s late-match exploits restricted South Africa to a modest first-innings total of 329, all eyes were on Australia’s new batting order without Smith, who missed the second Test with a neck injury. Renshaw returned to the top of the order, where he had batted in 20 of his previous 29 Test innings. He had enjoyed his time at No.
5 for that series, scoring 190 and 82 in a spectacular Test debut performance, but partnered Head again after replacing Nic Maddinson, who had an unsuccessful return to Test cricket. Jansen reached 99 Test wickets but was unable to get the right length consistently and was penalized by Renshaw, who targeted his preferred leg side. In typical fashion, Head was more dangerous and twice went out of bounds from just behind, leaving South Africa frustrated.
Those were the only nervous moments about the new ball, although Renshaw carried a ferocious 90mph Rabada bumper on his right shoulder and shrugged off the incident with a beaming smile. South Africa ctain Temba Bavuma has turned to speedster Gerald Coetzee, playing his first Test match since November 2024, after replacing injured quick Anrich Nortje. Coetzee opened with a 90mph thunderbolt but the inaccuracy proved costly against a frenetic Head who, with superb improvisation to make up for the slips, conjured up the fifty partnership in style.
With his pace attack weakened, Bavuma turned to Harmer, which paid immediate dividends with the wickets of Head and Labuschagne. Kagiso Rabada played a trial session with the old ball, South Africa vs Australia, 3rd Test, Ce Town, Day 2, October 28, 2026. Bavuma decided to start the second session with the ferocious pace of Rabada and Coetzee to manipulate Green. Coetzee thought he had Green out on matchday 22 when he headed at Harmer at second slip, but replays suggested the ball had bounced moments before.
Aside from a fiery punch that hit Renshaw to the body, Rabada was unable to find a rhythm and his attempts to manipulate Green failed. Three short balls were sent in a row, although Green had some luck scoring six runs against a stretched Marques Ackerman at deep square leg. Green looked distraught and thought he had gone down humbly like several South African batsmen on the first day.
He then refocused on reaching his half-century in 65 balls. It peared Harmer was about to break the partnership, although Green and Renshaw were more aggressive against him than before lunch, as Bavuma peared to have run out of answers. Harmer came into play with an excellent looping drive that hit Renshaw’s back leg when he was at 49.
South Africa were concerned when ball tracking showed the ball had broken the tie and their review failed to overturn the decision. Green and Renshaw reached the fifty mark on consecutive throws as they were ready to bat throughout the session until Jansen delivered again under pressure. After tea the game stalled, although Carey was given a scare early on when Inglis dismissed him.
Ackerman’s throw from center missed. Inglis, playing his first Test match since December, was uncharacteristically stuck until he showed his penchant for spin by dancing and calmly beating Harmer for six over deep midwicket. A few balls later there was little he could do as a fizzing shot from Harmer sailed through the goal, only to bounce narrowly off the stumps.
The naturally aggressive Inglis found his rhythm late in the day as he proached his second Test pitch. Unbeaten Renshaw, Green and Carey also scored half-centuries to leave the hosts frustrated at the Newlands Lofts. Josh Inglis at midwicket, South Africa v Australia, 3rd Test, This Town, Day 2, October 28, 2026 Markram does an Ackerman! Looks for a drawn six and is caught by Starc.
Excellent support in the long leg area. 132 km short ball in the middle and off, not a big improvement and not the pace that Markram wanted. He cut his bat at the waist and let the ball run.
Starc moved left from deep fine leg, had to wait as the ball took a while to come down, then threw his body towards square leg and picked it up on the way down. Elbows and forearms glided across the grass as he held the ball with both hands. The feet went up, but the ball stayed in.
Ackerman throws it away! He jumped through the gates too early, Lyon was watching closely, he saw it, threw it low and wide at 55mph, he skipped the leg side and couldn’t reach it, Carey made a very easy stump cut.

October 2026 mastered brilliantly by Hazlewood with a good leg!
Short ball does it! The bullet in his body shook him. Starc goes shorter and higher, Bedingham tackles it, gets a top edge, it flies to fine leg, Hazlewood jumps on the rope, catches it, lands just inside, throws it away, goes out, comes back and completes the catch with ease.
I never touched the rope, even though I was only a few inches away from it. Great catch David Bedingham became the third top order batsman to reach fifty, South Africa v Australia, 3rd Test, Ce Town, Day 1, 27th October 2026 Lyon are out of the cave! Where was this Australia?!
The umpire calls and hits the off-stump like a ball and Lyon bursts into the air in celebration. It was a ball of nice length that went away from the right-hander. It landed and went straight, with a small turn in the opposite direction.
Bavuma wanted to fend off the retreat, the ball went past the front knee. He was just trying to defend, the bat fell low, the back leg went across, but could do nothing to stop the ball from hitting the off-stump. A nice stat from Alex – Bavuma fell three times in four rounds.
In the game he didn’t play in, he conceded 179 hits for a heavyweight… Connolly interested. This also plies to Marnus and, more importantly, Carey.
Australia Review: Was the question first a pad or a racket? Replay in and it’s pad! Directly on the outside edge of the front knee.
It was a long ball that landed and Breetzke, whose front foot was in the middle, tried to defend to cover it. Bat was slightly behind and next to Pad. Hawk-Eye shows three reds and hits the top, just enough, and Connolly has a first Test wicket.
He roars in delight. Marnus and his teammates are all smiling too. Starc not only finds his radar, he also hits the bubble!

144ks full ball straight to leg, Coetzee went to the leg side – probably to esce the ball – and tried to drive straight. Hit by the swing, the ball deviates from the cushion and flattens the leg stump. The star of the show is Six-Fah!
However, Rabada’s stance needs to be revised. He can only be safe if the leg is thrown outside. exactly in line with the leg and it came out.
Full ball, swung and beat Rabada’s right block. He was thrown and hit in the front leg. Hitting leg stump.
