In a stunning turn of events, Australia, known for its remarkable performances in cricket, faced an unexpected defeat in the ICC World Test Championship final.

Kagiso Rabada delivered an outstanding performance, claiming five wickets in the first innings and four in the second, totaling nine wickets. His exceptional bowling was pivotal in leading South Africa to a historic win against the formidable Australian team.

Rabada expressed his elation, stating, "I can’t describe in words how it feels at the moment. Obviously extremely happy, throughout this entire season we’ve played really well, we’ve worked really hard. I think we deserve to get into this position."

He further emphasized the quality of their competition, dismissing claims that they faced weaker opponents, asserting, "People were saying we weren’t playing good enough opposition, but I think that’s rubbish. We came here and we played the best team. Australia have been magnificent all season, and we had to be on our A-game to beat them."
