Pat Cummins told the reason for defeat
In the post match presentation, Australian captain Pat Cummins said, “We had a good lead in the first innings, after which he tried to cover them but failed. The last 2 years have been excellent for us, but this time it did not play united. It seemed as if the pitch would be flat, but it did not happen.”
South Africa entitled to trophy
Pat Cummins admitted that the balls of Nathan Lyon looked fatal, but he could not take wickets. He said, “Aidan played a very brilliant innings and is entitled to become the South Africa champion as he kept himself in the match from the beginning and caught him with both hands as soon as he got a chance. I love Test cricket.”
