Australia are back on home soil and will host South Africa in the first of three One-Day International games. Join The Roar for live coverage of the match at Perth Stadium, from 2:20pm (AEDT).
The two countries will resume their rivalry in international cricket after the infamous Test earlier this year, from which three Australian players were banned for ball-tampering.
Cricket Australia’s issues continue behind the scenes; the fall-out from the internal review forced David Peever to resign late last week, just a week after being quietly re-appointed.
The Australian public want a strong performance in this series to kick-start a new summer – and era – of cricket in this country. Many are still sceptical and while it will take more to convince them, a strong ODI match would be an ideal start.
Australia’s recent form in One Day Internationals has not been great, five losses – a series whitewash – to England the most recent of results.
The team also struggled last month in the shorter game in the UAE, suffering three T20 losses to Pakistan.
South Africa have experienced their own batting troubles, having passed 250 runs only twice in their past 14 ODIs.
They failed to fire again on Wednesday, in a tour game against the Prime Minister’s XI, bowled out in 40 overs for 173 runs by the weaker – on paper, at least – Australian side.
The battle of the fast bowlers will be great to watch in the 50 over format, with both trio’s: Mitchell Starc, Pat Cummins and Josh Hazlewood for Australia, and the South African line-up: Kagiso Rabada, Lungi Ngidi and Dale Steyn, fit to play.
Prediction
After some periods of gutsy play in the test matches against Pakistan, Australia will be up for the fight to continue earning the respect of their country once again.
Back on home soil, Australia to take victory in the first game of the series.
Join The Roar for live coverage from 2:20pm (AEDT).
