South Africa vs Australia 5th ODI fantasy tips, predicted XI pitch report

South Africa and Australia will face off in the deciding One-day international match to be played at Johannesburg on 17th September. It was a remarkable performance by the South African team in the 4th ODI as Klassen and David Miller put up a superb show with 222 runs partnership for the 5th wicket off just 94 deliveries to help South Africa post 416 for 5 in 50 overs. The bowling looked sharp as South Africa registered 164 runs victory to level the series.

Quinton de Kock will be playing his final One-day international game on South African soil and hopes for a good performance with the bat. Temba Bavuma might return to captaincy replacing Aiden Markram.

On the other hand, Australia started well with discipline lines and lengths. They were taken to the cleaners by Klassen and Miller. Travis Head was hit on the hand and will not take part in the fifth ODI due to an injury and might be ruled out for World Cup 2023. Alex Carey was dismissed for 99 but lost by 164 runs.
