South Africa have laid bare the motivation to make amends for their last tour of Australia, where they felt as if they were bullied in Pat Cummins' team's backyard.

The Proteas confirmed one change to their side for the deciding third Test in Cape Town from Tuesday, asking quick Gerald Coetzee to be an enforcer at Newlands.

Right-armer Coetzee will play his first Test since 2024 in place of the injured Anrich Nortje (groin) in what will be the Proteas' most important home Test in years.
