After winning the first two matches, Proteas would like to seal the series before the fourth match. Aussies seem to be no match to Aussies in any department. Stand in skipper, faf du Palsies played an anchor role in South Africa’s victory. He was assisted by Jean Paul with a half century, which helped South Africa to surpass 300 mark.
Pitch
Though it doesn’t make Aussies favorites, Aussies will feel a sigh of relief after look at pitch and recent results. Finally they have got something to support their weak bowling line up. They do not have the fire power in batting also to compensate their weakness in bowling. Absence of Mitchell stark in line up is making Aussie attack innocuous. Even in the abscense of ABD, South Africa batting look dominant.
Chances of rain
Chances of Rain are literally nil. Team winning the toss will be suggested to bat first on batting friendly track.
South Africa
Dale steyn recently retained no 1 spot in rankings. Kagiso Rabada is also in great knick. Amla has exceptional record at Durban. He averages in low 50’s at Durban. He was rested in the first two ODi to include Rilee Russsow. Rille Russow had done his part in their previous victory. South Africa would not like to tinker the side.
Australia
Apart from top three, Australia batting order is fragile. Usman Khawaja might be the man to settle their batting woes. For him to be in playing 11. Chris tremain or Joe Minnie might have to sacrifice. Pitch might suit George Bailey’s style. Even After getting many chances. Travis Head is yet to prove at intl level
Aussies recently won a series against Srilanka. They clicnched the series afater losing the first ODI. They also won both the T20 intl’s in that tour.
Cricinfo predictions
- Amla to top score
- Warner to top score
- Asutralia to win the match.
