Australia drops Maddinson ahead of Test decider

Australia has dropped Nic Maddinson from the squad ahead of Tuesday's Test decider in Cape Town.

According to The Age, selectors have sent the makeshift opener home early after two failed stints atop the order, with wicketkeeper Sam Harper also said to be flying home.

Reports also suggest Steve Smith is yet to prove full fitness.
