South Africa Team News & Playing 11
SA Team News
South Africa has been left red-faced against a class Aussie team. The hosts have already lost the series and they will be keen to avoid the clean sweep. Donavon Fererria could come in place of Tristan Stubbs or Dewald Brevis while Sisanda Magala can also get a game.
SA Key Players
- Aiden Markram – Aiden Markram was the only batter who was able to score some runs against the Aussie attack. Markram scored 49 before being dismissed in the second T20I. The captain will have to step up in the final game to help the team avoid a clean sweep.
- Temba Bavuma – Bavuma gave South Africa a flying start in the second game but could not score a big one and was out for 35. The opener will have to ensure he plays a big innings once he gets a start as good as he got in the second T20I.
- Reeza Hendricks- Reeza Hendricks scored fifty in the first game but could not do much in the second game. The batter will be eyeing a decent show in the third game.
SA Team Form
South Africa have been left bruised by the Australians. They have been poor and neither the batters nor bowlers have been able to make an impact.
