The first Black batter to make a century for South Africa has led them to World Test Championship glory – but wider issues within the format must be solved to save it

LONDON (AP) — South Africa won the World Test Championship against titleholder Australia by five wickets after knocking off the last 69 runs required on the fourth morning of the final on Saturday. The Proteas achieved their first major cricket title in 27 years, sparking celebrations at Lord’s.

Hopefully, the superpowers of the game will no longer restrict there Test assignments against the Proteas to just two matches per series going ahead.
