Outplayed and Outworked: The South Africa Series Review
South Africa have won the series 2-1 and taken the No.1 Test ranking off Australia for the first time since 2016. Flem, Dizzy and Pidge pull apart the Cape Town Test and a series that got away from the Aussies. Dizzy is back from South Africa, so the three of them work through what went wrong at Newlands: Pat Cummins' call to bowl first, the Mitchell Starc spell that kept Australia in it, Simon Harmer's ten-wicket match, and a day-five chase that unravelled early. Then the bigger question: why can't Australia settle a batting order? The Nic Maddinson selection, fluid roles versus clear ones, Sam Konstas, and who should be in the top six when New Zealand arrive.

All Eyes on Cape Town...
Flem & Pidge hold the fort down as they dissect a nightmare second Test for the Aussies, with Diz MIA (asleep somewhere in South Africa, we think).
