SA Vs AUS: Inexperience In Test Line-up Has Really Showed Up, Says Temba Bavuma

By IANS News December 30, 2022 • 20:31 PM View: 685

South Africa middle-order batter Temba Bavuma has admitted that the "inexperience" in the Test line-up has been one of the reasons for their struggles in the format in recent times, which has now resulted in them losing a three-match series to Australia.

At the Boxing Day Test in the MCG, South Africa were thrashed by an innings and 182 runs by a rampant Australian team, making it the first time since 2005/06 that the Proteas didn't win a Test series in the country. It is also South Africa's second successive Test series loss after 1-2 defeat to England in August-September.
