South African-born Australian batsman Marnus Labuschagne will likely end as the leading run-scorer in Test cricket for 2019.
Labuschagne, who was born in Klerksdorp, has scored 1 022 runs to date in 10 matches at an average of 68.13.
Trailing Labuschagne - by 149 runs - in the Test run-scorer charts is former Australian captain Steve Smith, who is currently on 873 after 7 matches.

Meanwhile, Australian fast bowler Pat Cummins leads the wicket-taking standings with 54 in his 11 Tests to date.

Fellow team-mates Nathan Lyon (41) and Mitchell Starc (40) are the only bowlers who could catch Cummins, but are 13 and 14 behind, respectively, making it an unlikely scenario.

The best South African bowler is last year's top wicket-taker, Kagiso Rabada, who has claimed 26 wickets in his 7 Tests thus far.
