Cummins busts Cape Town Test open with killer spell

While the de Villiers breakthrough was crucial, it was the middle-order collapse it sparked that would have the largest impact on the day’s play.The key wicket of South Africa’s batting dynamo was the start of a 38-ball spell by Cummins that yielded the game-changing figures of 4-7, featuring the wickets of de Villiers, du Plessis, Bavuma and de Kock.From a position of dominance at 2-220 in the final session, Cummins left the hosts reeling at 6-242 before they limped to stumps with Elgar standing resolute with an unbeaten hundred to his name.
