Australia handed 18-year-old fast bowler Pat Cummins his test debut Thursday after South Africa won the toss and chose to bat first in the decisive second test at Wanderers.
Cummins replaced Ryan Harris as one of two changes for Australia following its shattering eight-wicket loss in the opening match at Cape town last week. Usman Khawaja was also called in for injured batsman Shaun Marsh, who has returned home.
Cummins’ selection makes him the second youngest test player for Australia after Ian Craig, who made his debut against South Africa as a 17-year-old in 1953.
