South Africa Team Preview

The South African will play the series with the new skipper Faf Du Plessis as their regular skipper AB De Villiers is sidelined with the injury.

The team has a bit of difficult task to face the Australian at their own backyard. Although, the confidence of the team is on a high especially after whitewashing the Australian in a 5 one day series in recent time.

South Africa team has inexperienced batting line with Cook at the top of the order with Dean Elgar. Amla will be the key along with Du Plessis at the top of the order. The middle order will rely heavily on the likes of Duminy, Bevuma, and De Cock.

The bowling of the South African team will be lead by the duo of Steyn and Philander, and they will look for some support from young Kagiso Rabbada. The spin will be led by Keshav Maharaja who made his debut in this match for South Africans.

Du Plessis and his troop need some solid performance from the team to face the Australian at their own backyard.
