AUS vs SA Dream11 Team Prediction Cricket World Cup 2023

AUS vs SA Match Preview

Australia suffered a big defeat to India in their first game. The team was bowled out for a mere 199 on the Chennai surface and the bowlers failed to defend the target, resulting in a six wicket defeat. Australia cannot afford to lose two games in a row thus they will come out all guns blazing against South Africa.

The Proteas, on the other hand, defeated Sri Lanka by 102 runs. SA posted a massive score of 428 on the board and restricted Sri Lanka to 326. South Africa also defeated Australia at home ahead of the ODI series. The Lucknow surface assists spinners and in Keshav Maharaj and Tabraiz Shamsi, South Africa have two good options. They will be feeling confident heading into the match.

Let’s take a look at the dream11 team prediction for this match.

Pitch Report

If the IPL matches are to be considered, the surface will be sluggish and helpful for bowlers. Spinners will get the ball to grip and turn, and pacers, if they put the ball in right area, will be equally handful due to inconsistent bounce. The batters will have to play really well.

Weather Report

The weather will be hot, with temperature will soaring to 35 degrees. Both captains would like to bat first as chasing is not easy on the ground and heat will take a toll on players.

AUS vs SA Dream11 Top Fantasy Picks All Rounders, Batsman, Bowlers, Wicket Keepers

AUS vs SA Dream11 Top Picks

Steve Smith

Steve Smith will be a key player for Australia. Smith scored 46 against India on a tough wicket and conditions in Lucknow will be similar. Smith is one of the best players of spin and his gameplay will suit the conditions.

Marcus Stoinis

Stoinis will also be a key player. Lucknow is Stoinis’ home ground in IPL and he is well used to the conditions. His experience of playing in these conditions before will help him immensely. Also, the kind of bowler he is, he can exploit the conditions well.

Glenn Maxwell

Maxwell has a quiet tournament with the bat so far, including warm-ups but given that he will also give crucial 10 overs with the ball, he becomes a valuable player. A cameo with the bat and 2-3 wickets with the ball can change the complexion of the game.

Aiden Markram

Markram scored a 49 ball ton against Sri Lanka in the first match. The conditions will be completely different in Lucknow but he is class batter and can perform well on those kinds of wickets too. Also, Markram will be handy with the ball.

Keshav Maharaj

A left arm spinner of spinning tracks is always handy and South Africa have a very good option in Keshav Maharaj. He can be the decisive factor in the match.
