Preview

Australia would have been thrilled with their performance thus far after a stunning comeback in the T20 matches and two victories to open this ODI series. However, after losing their most recent game, they will try to win their next game and the series.

Australia would not have anticipated the Africans’ fast start after choosing to field first after winning the toss. They were put on the back foot after the first ball and were unable to gain ground as the opposition scored 338 points. The leading wicket-taker was Travis Head, who had 2 for 39 runs.

Even though reaching the target of 339 would not have been simple, their batting order would have given them confidence. Despite having a fantastic start, they were unable to capitalise on it since they kept losing wickets at regular intervals and were eventually bowled out for 227 runs in 34.3 overs. With 78 runs, David Warner led the team in scoring.

Full Squad:

Mitchell Marsh (c), Sean Abbott, Ashton Agar, Alex Carey (wk), Pat Cummins, Nathan Ellis, Cameron Green, Aaron Hardie, Josh Hazlewood, Travis Head, Josh Inglis (wk), Spencer Johnson, Marnus Labuschagne, Tanveer Sangha, Marcus Stoinis, David Warner, Adam Zampa.

Players to watch out for South Africa vs Australia:

David Warner

This series has been an excellent opportunity for David to show his class. In the last match, he scored 78 runs in 56 balls which was a great start for the Aussies. But the team failed to take advantage of the good start. He will be the player to keep an eye on.

Josh Hazlewood

Josh is an excellent pace option for the team. He is definitely effective when it comes to taking wickets with raw pace. He is a dangerous bowler and South African bowling should get ready for him.

Possible Playing XI:

David Warner, Travis Head, Mitchell Marsh(c), Marnus Labuschagne, Alex Carey(w), Marcus Stoinis, Tim David, Sean Abbott, Nathan Ellis, Tanveer Sangha, Josh Hazlewood
