AUS vs SA LIVE SCORE: Five batsmen removed early by South African’s, Chase For 312 continues

AUS vs SA LIVE SCORE: Australia have won the toss and decided to bat first in their second world game of ICC World Cup 2023. Pat Cummins has decided to make two changes in his lineup, Marcus Stoinis and Josh Inglis make a comeback in the Aussie side.

The five-time champions will be looking to make a strong comeback against the Proteas after their shock six-wicket defeat to India on 8 October. Coach Pat Cummins will be particularly concerned about the performance of his batsmen, who failed to break the 200-run mark as they were caught in a web of spin bowling spun by India’s skilled bowlers.

The Kangaroos lost their first game by 6 wickets despite dismissing the first three Indian batters for less than 3 runs, so Cummins will also be worried about his team’s ability to build on promising beginnings.

AUS vs SA LIVE SCORE:

On the other side, South Africa just defeated Sri Lanka by 102 runs in their opening match. After amassing 429 runs in a high-scoring match against the Lankans, the Proteas did so thanks to three centuries from Rassie van der Dussen (108), Quinton de Kock (100), and Aiden Markram (106). Van der Dussen also achieved the Arun Jaitley International Stadium’s quickest century.

In response, all of the South African bowlers, particularly Lungi Ngidi, Keshav Maharaj, and Gerald Coetzee, bowled efficiently but effectively to dismiss the Lankans for 326 runs despite the efforts of Kusal Mendis, Charith Asalanka, and Dasun Shanaka.

Temba Bavuma’s team will be hoping to produce a huge total similar to their previous game at the Ekana Cricket Stadium, where the conditions are favorable for spinners, while Cummins’ team will be looking to make some technical adjustments to avoid falling into the spinners’ trap.
