Cummins outlines plan for Steve Smith before decisive Test with South Africa

Australia captain Pat Cummins outlined his team's approach to Steve Smith ahead of the third Test decider against South Africa as the match approaches.

Cummins said he remains hopeful about Smith's condition after a neck injury sustained in their recent loss to South Africa, which evened the series. The team is opting to delay any lineup decisions until further evaluations, and Cameron Green is anticipated to strengthen the middle order, with possible adjustments to the opening partnership as the contest unfolds.
