  2. "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.

  3. Congratulations South Africa on winning the ICC Test Championship. Patience and perseverance paid. But the turning point in the game was the casual batting by the Aussies in the 2nd innings. #WTCFinal

  4. “Be one, the people back home are celebrating” ~ Temba Bavuma. Undefeated Proteas men’s captain, World Test Championship winner. #wtcfinal

  5. 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.

  6. 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.

  7. 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.

  8. 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.

  9. 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.

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

    This is great for cricket around the world!

  11. 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.

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

  13. 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.

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

    #AUSvSA #WTCfinal #cricket

  15. Three more to Markram, means it is seven to win and seven for his 3,000 test runs but he is off strike.

  16. 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!

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

    #AUSvSA #WTCfinal #cricket

  18. 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.

  19. 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

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

    Australia are doomed!
