Renshaw’s heroics leave South Africa reeling as Australia close on first-Test victory

Matt Renshaw delivered a remarkable performance across the first Test in Durban, scoring 190 in Australia's first innings to rescue the team, then adding 82 in the second innings before Australia declared at 316 for six, setting South Africa a target of 421. Australia then reduced South Africa to four wickets down for 102 runs by the close of day four, putting them in a strong position heading into the final day. Aiden Markram, unbeaten on 45, represents South Africa's main hope of avoiding defeat and conceding a series lead to Australia.
