The 15th match of the Road Safety World Series brings the sixth-placed Australia legends against the fifth-placed South Africa Legends. The next game provides Australia with a chance to catch up to South Africa while the latter can move to fourth with a win.
Let’s look at all the details about the upcoming match:
Match 15: Australia Legends vs South Africa Legends
Australia Legends got off to a poor start in the tournament as they lost against Sri Lanka in their first match. The Shane Watson-led side however emulated the Australia team of the past and came up with a win over Bangladesh in their next match on the back of a sensational Brad Haddin 58.
South Africa’s points table standing gives a wrong idea about their showing so far. The Proteas have been poor so far as they have won just one of their four matches so far. They have lost two matches whereas one was abandoned due to poor weather.
Their only win came against New Zealand in the fourth match of the tournament. South Africa’s batting Morne van Vyk and some others have been poor. The Jonty Rhodes-led side would have to come up with massive improvements if they’re to win this next match.
Probable XI:
Australia Legends: Shane Watson (c), Cameron White, Callum Ferguson, Nathan Reardon, Brad Hodge, Brad Haddin, George Horlin, John Hastings, Brett Lee, Bryce McGain, Dirk Nannes
South Africa Legends: Andrew Puttick, Morne van Wyk, Alviro Petersen, Jacques Rudolph, Jonty Rhodes (c), Vernon Philander, Zander de Bruyn, Johan Botha, Eddie Leie, Garnett Kruger, Alan Dawson
