Skipper Dean Elgar Out Cheaply Again As Australia Chase Series Sweep Against South Africa

By AFP News January 08, 2023 • 10:39 AM View: 684

Australia needed nine wickets with 32 overs remaining at tea Sunday if they were to pull off an improbable victory over South Africa on the final day of the third Test in Sydney.

Australia enforced the follow-on after dismissing the Proteas for 255 -- 21 short of their target -- and knocked over out-of-form skipper Dean Elgar cheaply again in South Africa's second innings.
