Matt Renshaw Scores Century in First Test Against South Africa in Durban
Matt Renshaw scored his first Test half-century in over nine years and went on to make a century during the first Test against South Africa in Durban. His innings, marked by resilience and careful shot selection, helped Australia recover from a difficult position. Renshaw became the first Australian in more than 12 years to score a Test century in South Africa and only the 10th to do so at Kingsmead. His performance was crucial amid the absence of Cameron Green and support from captain Pat Cummins.
