# Cricket: A huge battle is expected in the series between the top-two countries on the World Test Championship log, Australia and South Africa. The first of three Tests starts in Durban today. South Africa now knows how to beat the old foe after being victorious in the final of the previous season. The shadow of the sandpaper scandal of 2018 still hangs over the visitors. Six players remain from eight years ago: captain Pat Cummins, former captain Steve Smith, Josh Hazlewood, Mitchell Starc, Nathan Lyon and Matthew Renshaw.
