AUS vs SA: Ground Pitch Report

Great Barrier Reef Arena is a good surface for the bowlers. It offers good assistance for the bowlers. Fast bowlers have enough to exploit with the new ball, and because of the slowness of the surface, the slower ones get more grip and are hard to face. The batting in the second innings will be more difficult than the first innings.

AUS vs SA: Possible XIs

Australia: Mitchell Marsh (c), Travis Head, Cameron Green, Josh Inglis, Marnus Labuschagne, Alex Carey (wk), Xavier Bartlett, Aaron Hardie, Nathan Ellis, Adam Zampa, Josh Hazlewood

South Africa: Matthew Breetzke, Temba Bavuma (c), Ryan Rickelton (wk), Aiden Markram, Tristan Stubbs, Dewald Brevis, Wiaan Mulder, Keshav Maharaj, Nandre Burger, Senuran Muthusamy, Lungi Ngidi

AUS vs SA: Player to Watch Out For

Probable Best Batter: Matthew Breeztke (South Africa)

Since his debut, Matthew Breetzke has recorded four 50+ scores on the trot. He has become the only cricketer to do so. In the first two games, he has scored 57 and 88 and is in great form. He is certainly a key batter on the South African side and is the leading scorer in this series.

Probable Best Bowler: Lungi Ngidi (South Africa)

Lungi Ngidi won the player of the match in the second ODI for his 5/42. He has taken seven wickets so far at an average of 10. Ngidi has used the conditions very well, and he has been smart in using the slower ones, which has earned him success in this series.

Today's Match Prediction: Australia can't be written off at any point, but the way they have performed and South Africa's dominance is the reason that we predict South Africa to win the final game.
