The off-spinner led a powerful Australia bowling attack to dismiss the Black Caps for 136 and seal another heavy win after similar victories in Perth and Melbourne. The visitors then buckled under the pressure of Australia’s superior bowling attack, with Mitchell Starc taking 3-25 to support the wiles of spinner Lyon. England declared their second innings on 391-8 shortly after lunch, setting South Africa the huge task of making a world-record 438 to win. While Sibley continued to play the anchor role, Stokes went on the attack against every bowler he faced. Ollie Pope fell quickly, but Jos Buttler continued the attack, hitting 23 off 18 balls as the lead went beyond 400.
