Sports - / Oct 27, 2026 - SA vs AUS 3rd Test: Australia opt to bowl, Steve Smith ruled out - South Africa vs Australia 3rd Test Live Score: South Africa and Australia face off in the decisive third Test at Newlands in Cape Town, with the series tied 1-1 and the world No. 1 ranking at stake. After Australia won the opening Test in Durban, South Africa responded emphatically in Gqeberha, where Temba Bavuma's magnificent 179 and Marco Jansen's all-round performance helped the hosts level the series.Australia captain Pat Cummins won the toss and elected to field, citing moisture in the pitch. South Africa captain Bavuma said he was comfortable batting first, believing the surface offered scoring opportunities once the team negotiated the challenge posed by the new ball.The Newlands pitch has a covering of grass but is expected to provide good carry on a hard surface. Experts also anticipate that spin could become a factor as the match progresses, making patience early in the innings and a more positive approach later potentially important.Australia have made four changes, bringing in Cooper Connolly, Cameron Green, Nathan Lyon and Josh Inglis. Matt Renshaw is set to open alongside Travis Head, while Steve Smith's fitness remains a concern. South Africa have included Gerald Coetzee in place of the injured Anrich Nortje.With both teams chasing a series victory and the top spot in Test cricket, the Cape Town decider promises a compelling contest between two formidable sides.
