South Africa vs Australia (Source: Twitter)
On October 12 against Australia, South Africa will take part in their second game in the ODI World Cup 2023. The Bharat Ratna Shree Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Stadium in Lucknow will host the game. This tournament's opening match in Lucknow is taking place.
South Africa and Australia have each played one game so far at the ODI World Cup 2023. While the Australians lost to India by six wickets, the Proteas defeated Sri Lanka during their opening match with a historic victory.
The five-match ODI series between the two countries was played prior to the ODI World Cup 2023. By a score of 3-2, South Africa won the series. It was a memorable series since South Africa won the series after losing the first two games.
For the contest involving Australia and South Africa, a brand-new pitch is most likely to be utilised. The Lucknow pitch for the IPL 2023 was sluggish and difficult for batsmen. The ground staff did, however, construct a new wicket over the off-season, and it may be used today for the first time. Therefore, it would be interesting to see how the new surface plays out in Lucknow. Teams might prefer to chase the opposition total owing to the dew factor in India.
