Proteas and Aussies resume rivalry in Centurion
An AB De Villiers-less Proteas face Australia in Supersport Park this Friday.
The Proteas face Australia Supersport Park in Centurion on Friday in their first One Day International of what is set to be a brutal series between the two rivals.
South Africa have momentum on their side having brushed aside Ireland in their ODI encounter on Sunday.
Australia on the other hand, left out their starmen Glenn Maxwell and Mitchel Starc due to injury.
Steven Smith, George Bailey and David Warner will look to bring fire power to the average looking Aussie side.
The home side will be boosted by the return of fast bowler Dale Steyn and spinner Imran Tahir. Though captain AB de Villiers is doubtful for the five-match series, the likes of Hashim Amla, Faf Du Plessis and JP Duminy should provide enough batting depth.
Like the Wanderers, Supersport Park is a happy hunting ground for the men in green and gold.
Many sides have found the going tough especially with the atmosphere created by Pretorians.
Tickets are still available for Friday’s game via the Ticketpro website.
