After their intense ICC World Test Championship final clash at Lord’s Cricket Ground, Australia is set to host South Africa in a limited-overs series over the next two weeks. This series is particularly significant as it serves as a crucial preparation for the upcoming T20 World Cup scheduled for February next year.
With two of the world’s leading cricketing nations facing off, fans worldwide are eager to catch the action live.
Australia enters the series on a high note, having recently whitewashed the West Indies 5-0 in the Caribbean under Mitchell Marsh’s leadership. Despite the ongoing absence of senior pace bowlers Mitchell Starc and Pat Cummins due to workload management, seamer Josh Hazlewood will lead the bowling attack against a formidable South African lineup that boasts near full strength.
