Pat Cummins claimed 3-54 as Australia took a 139-run lead against South Africa at stumps on day three of the first cricket Test in Durban on Sunday.
A collective bowling effort from Australia saw South Africa bowled out for 284 in its first innings – Mitchell Starc (2-63), Josh Hazlewood (2-54) and Nathan Lyon (2-58) took a brace each.
Australia had scored 390 runs in its first innings with Matt Renshaw hitting a career-best 190 to help the visitors recover from a precarious 124-6.
In its second innings, Australia was 33-0 at stumps in 5.4 overs when play was called off early again due to bad light, with nearly 13 overs lost in the day. Nic Maddinson (17 not out) and Travis Head (10 not out) are at the crease.
