The house that South Africa built to become the No.1 ranked Test team in the world had its foundations in winning away from home. They went 15 series and nine years undefeated in contests from the UK to the UAE before India outspun them exactly a year ago. A dramatic decline, a period of deep introspection and the mapping of a new direction followed and even though the top of the table is a long way away, South Africa want to start heading there by doing what they used to do best: rack up results on the road.The record we had away from home was remarkable. That was something we were incredibly proud of and then that changed. We went to India and we lost 4-0 there. We also lost a lot of experienced guys. But I think its going to be tough for any team traveling to India in the next two or three years. I expect that India are going to keep the No. 1 ranking certainly for the next year with all the home tests theyve got, du Plessis said But you cant just rely on playing well in your home conditions. The team thats No. 1 needs to play the best away from home. Thats something we need to start building up again.Australias (lack of ) home advantage has been a major theme in the build-up to this series, not least because it starts in Perth. The venue is not only so similar to the Wanderers that many in the South African squad feel completely at home, it is also the only Australian ground where South Africa have not lost a Test. South Africa also have a chance to climb to No. 3 on the Test rankings if they sweep the series 3-0.Still, South Africa remain a little wary of an Australian side who, like them, have returned from an away tour where they were embarrassed by the conditions as much as by the opposition, and may look to familiarity to restore their reputations.They
