AUS vs SA Head-to-Head Records- Key Statistics
The AUS vs SA rivalry is 110 matches old as far as ODI cricket is concerned, with the last outing between the two sides in ODI cricket ending in a no result.
The match in question was to be played in the 2025 Champions Trophy, but was called off due to rain.
South Africa has succeeded in winning 55 of those 110 games, while Australia has got the better of South Africa on 51 occasions, with three tied games and one getting abandoned.
The last completed game between Australia and South Africa was played in the 2023 ODI World Cup, which happened to be the semi-final of the tournament, which the eventual champions, Australia, won in a close fight by three wickets.
Australia and South Africa will meet only for the second time since that game, and they will hope that the match gets underway.
The reason for that is that both teams are playing ODI cricket after a long time, and are going through a transition with certain vital players retiring from this format of the game.
Both teams will face each other at Cazaly's Stadium for the first time, a ground which has hosted five ODI games so far, but will witness an ODI for the first time between the 2 teams.
If we talk about the combination of Australia and South Africa for the upcoming three-match series, then the visitors pip Australia in terms of experience.
Australia will be without the services of Glenn Maxwell and Steve Smith in the batting department, both of whom have retired from ODI cricket.
The home team lacks experience in the bowling department as well, in the absence of regular captain Pat Cummins and fast bowler Mitchell Starc.
South Africa, on the other hand, is relatively more experienced with the inclusion of ODI captain Temba Bavuma, who wasn't a part of the T20I team.
Kagiso Rabada and Lungi Ngidi will take care of the team's fast bowling department, while Keshav Maharaj will handle the spin bowling department.
