Australia thrash South Africa by 276 runs in the final one-day international in Mackay to avoid a first whitewash in an ODI series on home soil.

South Africa captain Temba Bavuma believes his side still has plenty of work to do despite defeating Australia 2-1 in their recent ODI series. While the victory was a boost for the Proteas, Bavuma stressed that the team is “not close” to where they want to be in terms of performance and consistency.

South Africa were far from convincing against Australia in Saturday’s Rugby Championship clash, but for coach Rassie Erasmus, victory after a shock defeat one week ago was the key outcome.
