Who will win SA vs AUS 2nd T20I:?

South Africa is looking weak and vulnerable, thanks to an inexperienced side that is unable to absorb the pressure. Also, the recent record hasn’t been good for SA, as the team has lost against West Indies and Netherlands as well. Even the head-to-head comparison favors Australia which has won 4 of the last 5 five games played against South Africa.

So, it is clear that Australia has a better chance to win this game, except for South Africa to come up with an upset in the 2^nd SA vs. AUS T20I encounter.
