Player ratings: Labuschagne, Cummins under fire in Cape Town

Cooper Connolly - Bowled serviceably to claim his first Test wicket and also batted with composure in the first innings to take Australia's lead to three figures. Quickly disposed of by Harmer on the final day but merits further opportunities.

Nathan Lyon - Came back into the team and bowled some excellent spells in each innings, twice getting past Temba Bavuma. Would have been disappointed not to play a more central wicket-taking role on day four when he had good conditions to work with. Will be a Test-by-Test selection proposition at home this summer.

Josh Hazlewood - Some decent spells in each innings without having the impact of Durban. Will be under some sort of spotlight for his place given Scott Boland's performance in Gqeberha, but it is also a good sign for Australia that he has gotten through five Tests against Bangladesh and South Africa without injury.

Travis Head - A couple of starts but not the big score that could have helped define the series. Was beaten comprehensively by a fired-up Rabada on the final morning and left South Africa after not having had the desired impact on the series from the top of the order.
