Australia vs South Africa 2nd ODI Preview

7 years ago - Sportingbase Australia vs South Africa 2nd ODI Preview Image

The iconic Adelaide Oval plays hosts to the second One Day International between Australia and South Africa on Friday.

After a dismal batting display from Australia in the 1st match the home team will be looking to eradicate some mental demons that have resulted in numerous batting collapses of late.

The Aussies were bowled out for 152 in under 39 overs which left a sour taste in the mouth of fans and those that enjoy quality cricket.

Shaun Marsh is expected to return from an abscess located around his buttocks region and may slot into the No.3 battling position to play an anchor role replacing Darcy Short.

Marsh was brilliant for Australia in a recent One Day series in England scoring 2 tons.

Tasmanian youngster Ben McDermott has been called into the Australian squad as cover in case Marsh does not recover in time.

Another possible change could be quick bowler Nathan Coulter-Nile making way for either spin option of Adam Zampa or Ashton Agar.

South Africa are expected to go into the match unchanged.

AUSTRALIA $1.80 V SOUTH AFRICA $2.00
