Day three of the South Africa v Australia second Test in Gqeberha concluded with the Proteas trailing by 422 runs in their first innings. Captain Temba Bavuma delivered a career-best knock, scoring 179 runs off 334 balls and becoming the first Proteas player to score a Test century in his last five matches. Lower-order batters struggled to support Bavuma, with Marco Jansen's 85 runs off 100 deliveries proving crucial.

Simon Harmer also contributed with an impressive 82 runs. Despite struggling bowlers, Scott Boland shone with 5/81, while Mitchell Starc and Beau Webster took a total of 4 wickets. The Proteas declared their innings at 425/9, just before Bavuma's dismissal, but their bowlers provided strong support, with Kagiso Rabada's early wicket of Nic Maddinson giving the away side a significant advantage as the series continues.
