South Africa: AB de Villiers will again be the prized wicket for Australians. Aiden Markram, Keshav Maharaj and Quinton de Kock are among others who will take confidence from their performances in the first game.

Australia: Captain Steve Smith will be the key scalp for South Africans. Mitchell Marsh and Mitchell Starc are others who had a good outing in the last game.
