AUS vs SA, 3rd ODI: Proteas eye clean sweep as Australia seek consolation win
Australia and South Africa are set to clash in the third and final ODI match scheduled for Sunday at The Great Barrier Reef Arena. With South Africa having already clinched the series 2-0, Australia will be playing for pride, hoping to salvage a win and avoid a whitewash.
The Proteas will be aiming for a dominant clean sweep, as they have been impressive in the first two games, claiming decisive victories. Meanwhile, Temba Bavuma is expected to return in the third match after missing the second game due to workload management.
Australia, on the other hand, have struggled to find their rhythm in this series. Inconsistent batting and bowling have hurt their chances in both games. While there have been individual performances, the team has failed to click collectively. With the series already lost, the Aussies will look to address their shortcomings and finish the series on a high note.
