Mitchell Starc has bowled Rassie van der Dussen for a duck with a sizzling yorker to capture his 300th test wicket, as Australia left South Africa in trouble at lunch on day two of the series-opening test at Brisbane.
At 3/2, South Africa still trailed by 63 runs at the break, after Australia were bowled out for 218 in reply to the tourists' first innings of 152.
Opener Sarel Erwee was one not out, with No.4 Temba Bavuma yet to score.
Kagiso Rabada (4/76) and rising star all-rounder Marco Jansen (3/32) had done well to restrict Australia, with the latter denying Travis Head (92) a century.
But the Proteas bowlers' good work was partially undone, as Pat Cummins struck with his fourth ball to dismiss opposing captain Dean Elgar leg before wicket for two, the South Africa opener failing again, after his three in the first innings.
Left-arm paceman Starc then produced a brilliant, swinging delivery that bowled Van der Dussen between bat and pad, becoming the seventh Australian to reach 300 test wickets.
Australia resumed in the morning on 145/5, with Head and all-rounder Cameron Green cruising, until Jansen had Green out for 18, with Erwee scrambling from first slip to catch an edge that pinged off Keshav Maharaj's hands.
Jansen then had Head caught down the legside eight runs short of his century, before Lungi Ngidi and Rabada cleaned up the Australian tail.
