Bee-stung de Kock misses Shaun Marsh stumping

Keshav Maharaj's flight left Australia's No. 5 stranded outside his crease, but he lived to fight on (though not for too long) thanks to the timely efforts of a wicketkeeper-hating bee

Lions axe Geoffrey Toyana as head coach

Imperious Markram enters impervious bubble

The South Africa opener has the ability, like Jacques Kallis before him, to shut out everything and simply bat, and it's quite a feat that he's managed to do this so consistently across such an ill-tempered series

26-Mar-2018•Firdose Moonda

South Africa find their sweet moments in 'soap opera'

The achievements of Dean Elgar, Aiden Markram and AB de Villiers should be celebrated and the form of Faf du Plessis should be questioned but that will come on another day, a less strange day

25-Mar-2018•Firdose Moonda in Cape Town
