SA vs PAK, 2nd Test: South Africa’s run of success is just the start, says skipper Bavuma

The Hindu  

Captain Temba Bavuma said there was something special brewing in South Africa’s Test team after it won its seventh match in a row, beating Pakistan by 10 wickets at Newlands on Monday, and it could now look forward to the World Test Championship final. The World Test Championship final will be played at Lord’s from June 11-15 against arguably South Africa’s greatest cricket foes, Australia. South Africa’s Temba Bavuma holds up the trophy after winning the Test match series, following the fourth day of the second Test. South Africa does not have a home Test scheduled until the visit of Australia in September 2026, which has left Bavuma puzzled.
