SA vs AUS 4th ODI Dream11 Prediction Possible 11 Pitch Report | SA vs AUS 4th ODI Dream11 Prediction Today | Centurion Pitch Report

Australia, who took a 2-0 series lead, suffered quite the setback in Potchefstroom. The heavy defeat could give South Africa great confidence, with the Proteas looking to build on momentum ahead of the World Cup.

Spinners Tabraiz Shamsi and Keshav Maharaj combined beautifully to further cast doubts over how well Australia start against spin in ODIs. After the initial David Warner onslaught, the South Africans settled in nicely after a big batting performance, where runs for Aiden Markram was welcome news for both he and all associated with the Proteas.

Now the series moves to Centurion. The last two matches have been one-sided either way. The team who has thrown the first punches have gone on to win well, so a good start in this clash could prove crucial to the result.
