AUS vs RSA Match Prediction & Analysis Both teams came into their opening fixtures needing to find some confidence after suffering injuries to key pace bowlers and struggling in this format of late but wins by five wickets over England and by 107 runs over Afghanistan mean Australia and South Africa are both in strong positions ahead of this Group B clash on Tuesday. Games between these sides are rarely dull, from the 1999 Cricket World Cup semi-final to the ‘sandpapergate’ incident in Test cricket during the last decade, these are two teams who like to play hard. TEAMS PREVIEW Australia Preview It is not often that a team conceded 351 runs in an ODI but then goes on and wins the game with 15 balls remaining but that is exactly what Australia did when they played their great rivals England on Saturday. Although they would like to have conceded fewer runs, there were some fine performances with Ben Dwarshuis continuing to show that he is an international level cricketer by dismissing both Phil Salt and Jamie Smith in the powerplay. Adam Zampa produced another impressive display of spin bowling and Nathan Ellis showed the value of variations in keeping the run-rate down. South Africa Preview There could be a selection dilemma for South Africa ahead of this game after Ryan Rickelton came into the team in place of the injured Heinrich Klaasen against Afghanistan and hit 103 runs from 106 balls at the top of the order! With that century contributing to a victory by 107 runs, it could be that South Africa feel they can afford to give Klaasen a few more days rest but if not then Tony de Zorzi’s place at the top of the order could be in danger. That’s because there were also useful half-centuries from Temba Bavuma, Rassie van der Dussen and Aiden Markram in a fine batting display. Weather Conditions It does not look like being a particularly bright and sunny day in Rawalpindi on Tuesday. It will be cloudy and humid throughout with a good chance of rain in both innings. AUS vs RSA Pitch Report The pitch in Rawalpindi is a good one for batting so with the overhead conditions favouring the bowlers it could be a leveller! Whoever bats first will be looking to post a total of 300+. Toss: To Bowl Of the last five ODIs at this venue, only one has been won by the team batting first without the use of a super-over! And with the conditions looking good for bowlers, we expect both teams to want to chase.
