Bavuma, Miller centuries set up South Africa’s series triumph
Bavuma, Miller hit centuries as South Africa clinch series
Temba Bavuma and David Miller's centuries propelled South Africa to a series-clinching 32-run victory over Australia in the second one-day international at the Wanderers Stadium. Bavuma scored 103 while Miller blasted 142, leading to an overall total of 365 for nine. Captain Bavuma praised the team's performance, acknowledging the challenge of batting upfront but expressing relief at handling it well.
Miller commended his teammates' resilience in the middle overs, where Australia struggled against South Africa's spinners. Both players shared a 156-run fourth-wicket partnership, with Miller achieving his career-best score off just 93 balls, including 12 fours and nine sixes. The match saw South Africa wearing pink to raise awareness for breast cancer awareness.
Despite Australia's high total, they lost momentum after Mitchell Marsh's dismissal, ultimately failing to chase down the target.
