Aussies triumph
Teenage debutant Pat Cummins had his first ball hit for six but then
struck two vital blows as Australia eased to victory in a rain-hit first
one-day international against South Africa at SuperSport Park on
Wednesday.
Facing an adjusted target of 223 off 29 overs, South Africa's chances
took a huge dive when Cummins dismissed Jacques Kallis and JP Duminy in
the space of three balls.
The hosts were bowled out for 129 in 22 overs to give Australia a
93-win Duckworth/Lewis win.
Cummins, at 18 the youngest player to represent Australia in a
one-day international, confirmed the promise he showed in two Twenty20
internationals against the same opponents. AFP
