Australia start day four in complete control. They’re 0/33 and lead the Proteas by 139 runs.
It shapes as a massive day for recalled opener Nic Maddinson. After his extraordinary recall, the left-hander chopped on for a disappointing 33-ball duck in the first dig. But he would have slept better on Sunday night after moving swiftly to 17. A batsman who likes to take the game on, he’ll likely look to continue to bat freely. He’s also got Travis Head (10 not out) at the other end, so strap yourself in.
