    The Australian cricket team reckon they'll have to blunt the South African pace attack if they're to win the World Test Championship

    The Australian cricket team reckon they'll have to blunt the South African pace attack if they're to win the World Test Championship


    The final at Lord's in London starts at 9.30pm with the top qualifying Proteas boasting impressive quicks, led by world number two Kagiso Rabada , who has 30 wickets in just six tests in England.

    Veteran Aussie batter Steve Smith says facing the Proteas' pace-men in English conditions will be a mission.



    The winner will pocket almost six million dollars, the runner-up collects three and a half million.
