Australia are set to lock horns with South Africa in the Boxing Day Test on Monday, in Melbourne.
While the Boxing Day Test is an iconic occasion in itself, but this one will have all the more spice since the last match ended in just 2 days between these teams.
The pitch had too much in it for the bowlers, and the Proteas lost the match by six wickets. The hosts will try to wrap up the series, while the South African side will try to win in Melbourne and make the third and final match the series decider.
With a place in the World Test Championship at stake, the Proteas will be expected to give it their all, having slipped to third courtesy of India's 2-0 win over Bangladesh.
