Ackerman’s 95, Starc’s Six-for & A Day of Test Cricket Chaos | KIC EP 32

Hadds and Adam break down a dramatic opening day of the third Test between South Africa and Australia at Newlands, where debutant Marques Ackerman fell just five runs short of a maiden Test century after a stunning 95. Aiden Markram’s 78 helped the Proteas race to 158 without loss, but Mitchell Starc turned the game on its head with a sensational six-wicket haul as South Africa were bowled out for 329 as the momentum swung back and forth throughout the day.

Can Australia build on Starc’s late burst, or will South Africa’s bowlers have their say in what remains a finely balanced Test? The guys discuss the key moments, batting collapses, tactical decisions and standout performances from Day 1, along with all the latest talking points from the world of international cricket.

Who do you think is better placed heading into Day 2? Let us know in the comments!
