Proteas blow Aussies away to win series

The Proteas routed Australia on the fourth morning of the second Test at Hobart to claim an emphatic series win with more than a day and two sessions to spare.

It was their third successive series win in Australia following similar triumphs in 2008 and 2012. The winning margin was an innings and 80 runs with Australia suffering an even worse collapse than in the first innings, losing 8 wickets for 32 runs to the combined onslaught from man-of-the-match Kyle Abbott, Kagiso Rabada and Vernon Philander.
