South Africa beat Australia by an innings and 31 runs in the 2nd Test at Gqeberha to level the three-match series 1-1.
The Proteas roared back just days after their heavy 214-run defeat in Durban. Captain Temba Bavuma stood tall with a career-best 179, while Marco Jansen tore through the Australian batting to claim five wickets for just 33 runs. Chasing the game after being bowled out for 99 and forced to follow on, the tourists fought through Travis Head's brave 121 and Scott Boland's stubborn resistance — but Wiaan Mulder and Kagiso Rabada broke the stand on the final day to seal a famous win in the last session. All eyes now turn to the series decider at Newlands in Cape Town, starting on Tuesday.
