SA vs AUS Live Score

2:04 PM IST PLAYER OF THE MATCH - Simon Harmer has been given the accolade for his match tally of 10 wickets, 4 in the first innings and 6 in the second, to clinch the series. Harmer says it was simply about handling the expectations and, as he is known to do, putting the ball in the right areas consistently. He adds that whenever a partnership began to build, he varied his pace and trajectories. Highlights the way KG (Kagiso Rabada) bowled this morning, picking up those three wickets, the opposition would surely have looked at the total. After that, he says, it was about playing for the draw, and as a spinner on a turning wicket, it was a dream situation. He admits it has been a tough few weeks but says they will enjoy tonight. Harmer feels the wickets have not offered as much turn as expected on Day 4 and Day 5, and says that in PE (Port Elizabeth or Gqeberha) he tried too hard, as he was desperate to take wickets. He says it was really nice to come into the final Test and have the match go down to the last day, and to be able to bowl freely and do his thing. Says he would not change his journey for anything, reflecting on the person he has become. He gets emotional and pauses after that.

2:03 PM IST The captain of Australia - Pat Cummins admits the match ebbed and flowed throughout. He highlights that they did well with the ball on the first day, picking up all ten wickets and giving themselves a good chance. He admits it was tough work out there yesterday, and that a couple of partnerships South Africa put on made the chase a difficult task today. Cummins says Australia have done it really well over the last couple of years, and that bringing someone like Josh Inglis in was quite seamless. He notes that the trend of the game was that once a batter got set, there were runs to be scored. He believes Australia are a really good side, but says tough opponents away from home are always very difficult. He feels they were good enough to win, but acknowledges they were not. Mentions that he is relatively happy overall, adding that it comes down to the little moments. He wishes they had taken those moments - a catch going to hand, for instance - and says South Africa were better than them in those moments.

2:00 PM IST That's a wrap - Temba Bavuma collects the trophy and joins his teammates for the celebrations. With Table Mountain providing a stunning backdrop, the Proteas soak in the moment, and rightly so. They showed tremendous character throughout the series, repeatedly fighting their way back from difficult situations to emerge victorious. With that, Australia's tour of South Africa comes to an end, and they head home empty-handed, having also lost the ODI series. Up next for the Aussies, they welcome their old rivals England for three ODIs and five T20Is, with the ODI leg starting on November 13. As for South Africa, they will prepare to host Bangladesh for an all-format series, starting with the first Test on November 15. For now, you can switch tabs and follow the action from the Tri-series final between Pakistan and Sri Lanka. Cheers!
