Australia and South Africa will be taking on each other in their next game of the World Cup. The two cricketing giants have often produced a spectacle, resulting in some memorable matches. They recently went one-on-one in a bilateral series which saw South Africa pick up a 3-2 victory.
The Aussies failed to start their World Cup campaign on a winning note. They recorded a six-wicket loss in their opener against India in Chennai. Mitchell Marsh was unable to produce his usual impact in the match as Australia were held to a humble 199-run total. In the second half of the game, India recovered the innings thanks to a brilliant partnership from KL Rahul and Virat Kohli. Australia will be now looking for redemption against the South Africans.
