Australia captain Pat Cummins said conditions at St George’s Park will help determine the XI and batting order for the second Test against South Africa. Cameron Green is likely to be considered after missing the Durban victory with an abdominal problem, while Cummins indicated that player-of-the-match Matt Renshaw is unlikely to be moved from No. 5. The second Test is scheduled for 18–22 October in Gqeberha.
