Venue and Toss
In the last five ODIs played at this venue, only once has a team managed to score more than 250 in the first innings. Also, anything close to 250 hasn’t been easy to chase here. So taking into account the recent records, 250-260 should be a competitive first-innings total.
9 out of 14 games here have gone to the side that has batted second. Moreover, the pitch at the Kensington Oval tends to become relatively easier to bat on during the second half of the match. So whichever team wins the toss on Sunday will probably want to field first.
Australia, in this tri-series, have not lost a match after winning the toss. So their chances of winning this match will increase if the toss goes their way.
Australia Team News & Playing 11
If AUS Bat First
Predicted score: Around 265
Khawaja and Finch will be opening the innings as the in-form Warner has been ruled out of the series due to injury. Khawaja, Smith and Bailey all scored fifties in the previous match against the West Indies and they will be the ones Australia will be counting on the most. If these three replicate their performances from the last match, the Aussies should well be on their way to 260.
Rabada could open the bowling for South Africa with either Parnell or Abbott. Of the three, Rabada has looked to be the more dangerous and he will be the Proteas' best bet to provide them the initial breakthroughs. The Australian batsmen will look to play Tahir with extreme caution in the middle overs as he took 7 wickets to spin South Africa to victory over the Windies in the last match. If Australia's top-order fail to perform, the Proteas will have a great chance of keeping their total below 260.
South Africa Team News & Playing 11
If SA Bat First
Predicted score: Around 250
AB de Villiers hasn't yet shown the best of himself in this series but Australia will still fear him the most. The opening partnership between de Kock and Amla is going to be crucial and so will be du Plessis in the middle-order. South Africa will need these three to score so that de Villiers and Duminy can play their natural game. If things go according to their plan, the predicted total should be well within their reach.
Australia could open their bowling with Hazlewood and Starc. The two along with Coulter-Nile have been amongst the wickets and they will be tasked with breaking South Africa's opening partnership. Adam Zampa is expected to trouble the batsmen with his legspin and it could be hard to score off him. If Zampa, Starc and Hazlewood bowl well, South Africa could struggle to get to 250.
Our Prediction
This will be the first time that Australia and South Africa will play a One-Day International against each other at the Kensington Oval. Australia could benefit from having played more matches here than South Africa. But the latter will be coming into this match on the back of a win in their last match. While the Proteas won the first battle in this series, the Aussies bounced back to win the second one. So the two teams have pretty much been neck-to-neck so far.
Though Australia will be without their key batsman David Warner, we're backing them to win this match against South Africa in Barbados.
