"It was a triumph over politics and economics as much as over a rival group of players." Geoff Lemon

South Africa winning the world test championship is good for the game. And they deserved the win - played smart.

The story of how South Africa men shed the chokers tag they had carried for over quarter of a century, and a photo gallery.

Bavuma says that character is an important trait they look for in a team member.

So important in life and test cricket demonstrates the importance of that over 5 days.

#AUSvSA #WTCfinal #cricket

Markram deserved his man of the match award.

Captain Bavuma got a well-deserved cheer receiving his medal - great captaincy this match and individual courage. Rabada also deserved his cheer - 9 wicked for the match - great bowling.

#AUSvSA #WTCfinal #cricket

It was the 'can do' positive attitude of the top order South African batsmen in the face of a daunting run chase that won South Africa the world test final.

#AUSvSA #WTCfinal #cricket

That's it! South Africa win by 5 wickets.

That is their first ICC championship trophy. Ever!

Huge scenes!

Heartiest congratulations to the rainbow nation. Well deserved.

#Cricket #AUSvSA Congratulations to SA - finally did it after 27 years!

Verreynne scores the winning single with the clock reading 12:46 on Saturday June 14th. The margin is five wickets, and 26 years after the first of many 'so near but so far' moments South Africa men have finally won a global tournament.

CONGRATULATIONS SOUTH AFRICA!!! South African wins the ICC world test final!

This is great for cricket around the world!

#AUSvSA #WTCfinal #cricket

Well done South Africa #Cricket #AUSvSA #WTCFinal

No-one believes Carey even when he is randomly right!

#AUSvSA #WTCfinal #cricket

#Cricket one run, one run!
#AUSvSA

Verreynne levels the scores with a single off the last ball of the over. That means that SA have won the WTC, since even if they now lose all their remaining wickets in a heap for the match to be tied they topped the table during the league stage.
#cricket #TestCricket #WTC #WTCFinal #AUSvSA #SAvAUS

Oooh, the tension! The scores are tied!

#AUSvSA #WTCfinal #cricket

Scores are equal…

You don't often use the term 'match-winning innings', but that was surely one.

Markram perishes in the moment of victory, caught at midwicket. South Africa 276-5, need six more to win. Markram will certainly be named Player of the Match for his 136.
#cricket #TestCricket #WTC #WTCFinal #AUSvSA #SAvAUS

Markram is out!!! Oh no!! He deserved to be there at the end.

#AUSvSA #WTCfinal #cricket

Three more to Markram, means it is seven to win and seven for his 3,000 test runs but he is off strike.
#cricket #TestCricket #WTC #WTCFinal #AUSvSA #SAvAUS

Alan: "Carey needs to be forced to spend 72 hours straight going through training on what a LBW wicket looks and feels like." lol

My other half nails it!

#AUSvSA #WTCfinal #cricket

The umpire is going to ignore any appeal you make Carey!

#AUSvSA #WTCfinal #cricket

Carey appeals = guaranteed to be not out

#AUSvSA #WTCfinal #cricket

South Africans are going to celebrate every run from now. Just 18 runs to go.

#AUSvSA #WTCfinal #cricket

That four and single to Bedingham have reduced the ask to below 20 - just 18 needed, and six wickets still standing. Markram needs another 16 to bring up 3,000 test career runs, which now looks very unlikely.
#cricket #TestCricket #WTC #WTCFInal #AUSvSA #SAvAUS

Markram has been impressive. Look at how he scampered through those runs after being in the middle for over 6 hours in this innings.

Man of the match?

#AUSvSA #WTCfinal #cricket

Sigh. You listened to Carey. You lost all your reviews.

Australia are doomed!

#AUSvSA #WTCfinal #cricket

Captains knock that is. Limping, struggling but carrying on with the never die spirit. Hats off, skipper! That's some 50! 👏

Love how well Markram uses the crease and plays those back foot shots; drives, cuts. Proper 90s shorts that I grew up watching against the spinners.

Two teams playing to find who is the world champion Test Cricket team locked in a fierce struggle, little did they know it wouldn’t be against each other but a SHIT English pitch.
