Australia and South Africa have been two of the more competitive teams in the world since the late 1990s. The Proteas were blown away by a Sunil Narine special spell in the first game, with the wily spinner taking his career-best figures of 6/27. Though they lost that game, South Africa come into this clash knowing that they have one of the better batting attacks in the world and any line-up which features Quinton de Kock, HashimAmla and AB de Villiers will be feared irrespective of the conditions. The world champions Australia come into this clash after thrashing hosts West Indies by six wickets on 4 June and it was not the seamers but the spinners who were the wreckers on the turning surface in Providence, Guyana.

Best economical pick – Nathan Lyon who was dropped from the World T20 squad is looking dangerous in this tournament. Apart from the helpful pitch, he maintained an impeccable line and length and gave a man of the match performance by taking 3 wickets. Lyon is expected to trouble the South African batsmen on Tuesday.
Top captains & vice captains – The South African captain AB de Villiers who has failed in the first match of this Tri series will look to lead his team from front by giving a remarkable performance against the Aussies. David Warner, who is coming off an excellent IPL season, again showed why he should be considered one of the best batsmen in the world, leading Australia’s chase with an unbeaten 55-run knock.
Smart pick –The Australian Speed Star Mitchell Starc who made a comeback after 7 months in international cricket have bowled a superb spell against West Indies. He took 2 crucial wickets by his deadly Yorkers in the start of innings caused West Indies collapse.

Cautions Pick –South African All-Rounder Wayne Parnell can be very expensive with his loose bowling against the star studded Australian batting line up. He can go very expensive with ball and can’t get a chance to bat which will cost you negative points.
CricBattle XI – AB de Villiers (Captain), David Warner (Vice-Captain), Nathon Lyon, Mitchell Starc, Usman Khawaja, RileeRossouw, KagisoRabada, Quinton de Kock, Adam Zampa, FarhaanBehardien, Mitch Marsh
