Bavuma's century reshapes South Africa's Test against Australia

Fox Cricket's day-three highlights draw an unusually fast start, with viewers also making a case for Jansen and Harmer's contributions.

Why this story? The video opened at a pace of 161,027 views a day, 10 times a normal first day on this channel (16,161).

Temba Bavuma had been keeping South Africa in the conversation. A century changes the conversation altogether.

Fox Cricket's third-day highlights from the second Test center on the captain's hundred and a South African recovery that gives Australia's bowlers a very different story from the early breakthroughs. After the channel's previous highlights featured Scott Boland's wickets and Matt Renshaw's diving catch, this installment puts the hosts' response at the heart of the day.

The upload drew roughly 87,000 views in nine hours, well beyond the channel's usual full-day audience for regular videos. Its comment section was already several times busier than a typical first day, too.

Bavuma isn't the only subject there. Viewers single out Marco Jansen's timing, particularly his on-drive, while others argue that Simon Harmer's contribution deserves more attention alongside the captain's innings. It's a conversation about the supporting work as much as the headline hundred.

Fox Cricket has also posted a separate look at how Australia eventually removed Harmer: two overs from Marnus Labuschagne, an intervention important enough to get its own upload.
