Preview
South Africa and Australia lock horns in the third and final ODI at Senwes Park in Potchefstroom on Wednesday, September 30. While the Proteas have already taken an unassailable 2-0 lead in the series, they would want to continue their winning momentum heading into next year's ODI World Cup. On the other hand, the Aussies will look to salvage some pride from the third game, and a win will help them take some confidence into the Test series.
The Proteas won the first ODI by 67 runs, dismissing Australia for 230 after putting up a total of 297/8 on the board. In the second ODI, the home side posted 365/9 before rolling over Australia for 333. Fans can expect another intense encounter on Wednesday.
