“South Africa vs Australia 1st Test Day 5: Markram 46*, Mulder 10* as Proteas Chase 109-1 a” — what this page in the network covers. South Africa resumed day five of the first men's Test against Australia at Kingsmead in Durban, reaching 109 for 1 with Aiden Markram unbeaten on 46 and Wiaan Mulder on 10 at the start of play. Australia's bowlers struggled early, with Mitchell Starc conceding a boundary off the first ball and a wide, continuing his wayward form in this match. Surprisingly, part-time spinner Matt Renshaw was given the new ball ahead of frontline off-spinner Nathan Lyon, a tactical decision that raised eyebrows as Mulder negotiated the over carefully.
The Proteas are chasing Australia's first-innings total, with the match finely poised on the final day. Markram's solidity at the top and Mulder's support will be crucial if South Africa are to push for a victory or secure a draw.
