2 h. ago Starc leads Australia fightback after Rabada stars for South Africa on day one of WTC final

Day one: Australia 212; South Africa 43-4Rabada takes 5-51 but Proteas’ reply faltersSouth Africa have had to put up with a fair few grumbles about their place in this World Test Championship final and grew tired of the topic during the build-up. Other than pointing folks in the direction of the International Cricket Council, the teams who can afford to arrange more fixtures, and the league table they topped, the only response they could really give was to compete out on the field.It was a case of mission accomplished with the ball, at least, even if a topsy-turvy opening day that saw 14 wickets fall ended with Australia in the ascendancy. Led by Kagiso Rabada, a player dogged by headlines about his recent ban for cocaine use, the Proteas were delighted to skittle the defending champions for 212 in two-and-a-half sessions, only to close on a troubling 43 for four in reply.

4 h. ago A bold image of motherhood – using a prosthetic belly: Gabriel Moses’ best photograph

Those references have become important in my work’I was raised in a single-parent household by my mum and we’re very close. She is a nurse, but she also did a lot of flower-arranging.

When I was a kid she was also a Sunday school teacher and would run arts and crafts workshops at church. I think I began to appreciate colour, how to match things, and develop taste, from there. My sister also studied fashion – and I was always in her bedroom as that’s where I would go to watch TV. She would have all these posters from Dazed and Vogue, Nick Knight photographs, pictures of Naomi Campbell. I thought it was rubbish at the time, but in hindsight I can understand how those references have become important.This image was the cover of my book, Regina, which was a massive ...
