South Africa vs Australia 2nd ODI Match Preview

Australia’s winning streak is continued in the ODI series as well, with South Africa disappointing once again. Like it has been for South Africa, batsmen struggled to make runs, save Temba Bavuma who scored more than half of the team’s total. At one point in time, SA looked like it was defending the total when Australia were 84/5 after 13 overs. If Labuschagne (80) and Ashton Agar (48) had not crafted that partnership, Australia would have lost the match. Unlike the batters, SA bowlers showed discipline and bowled like a unit to have almost dismissed all Aussie batsmen well short of the target.

SA would look to lift their batting effort to avenge the defeat in the 2^nd SA vs AUS ODI.
