Captain Temba Bavuma scored another international century against Australia, while David Miller recorded his highest-ever ODI score. Even without their first-choice fast bowlers, South Africa outperformed Australia.
Nathan Ellis has been ruled out of the final ODI. The inclusion of Pat Cummins and Mitchell Starc could lead to two changes in the team. These two experienced fast bowlers will be eager to challenge the in-form South African batting lineup and conclude the series on a high note.
