Australia has made a huge statement in Durban, winning the first Test against South Africa by 214 runs to take a 1–0 series lead. Matt Renshaw was the standout with a remarkable 190 in the first innings and 82 in the second, while Josh Hazlewood tore through the South African batting lineup on day five with career-best Test figures of 6/49. Menners reviews the key moments, assesses Australia's turnaround after a shaky start, looks at South Africa's struggles and considers what the victory means for the rest of the series.
