Bavuma's Test-best ton has South Africa in dominant position vs Australia

South Africa captain Temba Bavuma struck his Test-best score of 179 to see his side into a dominant position in the second Test against Australia, as they look to level the three-match series.

Bavuma's magnificent innings helped rescue the Proteas from a perilous position of 40-4, with Australia's bowlers on top during the first two rain-affected days in Gqeberha but Bavuma, along with vital lower-order contributions from Marco Jansen (85) and Simon Harmer (82) helped wrestle the match the home side's way.
