Australia Brace For South African Pace In First Test Since 'Sandpaper-Gate' Series (Preview)

By AFP News December 15, 2022 • 16:52 PM View: 979

Australia will face one of cricket's most hostile pace attacks when they play South Africa at Test level from Saturday for the first time since the infamous "Sandpaper-gate" series.

The tourists boast fast bowlers Kagiso Rabada, Anrich Nortje, Lungi Ngidi and Marco Jansen -- all capable of firing 140 kph (90 mph) rockets down the wicket at the Gabba in Brisbane.
