Australia vs South Africa (AUS vs SA) 2nd T20I Match Teams Preview
Australia Preview
Australia took the first T20I by 17 runs, driven by Tim David’s blistering 83 and three-wicket hauls from both Josh Hazlewood and Ben Dwarshuis. After a strong start to the series, they’ll be aiming for another win in the second match to seal an unassailable 2-0 lead. A victory would also extend their impressive run of series wins, coming on the back of a recent whitewash of West Indies on their home turf.
Australia Predicted XI for 2nd T20I
Mitchell Marsh (c), Travis Head, Josh Inglis (wk), Cameron Green, Tim David, Glenn Maxwell, Mitchell Owen, Ben Dwarshuis, Nathan Ellis, Adam Zampa, Josh Hazlewood
South Africa Preview
The Proteas will be determined to level the series 1-1 and keep the three-match contest alive. While their bowlers started well in the opener, they struggled to contain Tim David’s onslaught, and the chase faltered due to a lack of support at the other end. Under Aiden Markram’s leadership, South Africa will be keen to learn from their mistakes and bounce back stronger in the second game.
South Africa Predicted XI for 2nd T20I
Aiden Markram (c), Ryan Rickelton (wk), Lhuan-dre Pretorius, Dewald Brevis, Tristan Stubbs, George Linde, Senuran Muthusamy, Kagiso Rabada, Kwena Maphaka, Lungi Ngidi
