However, Josh Hazlewood’s 3/27 and Ben Dwarshuis’ 3/26, backed by Adam Zampa’s 2/30, sealed Australia’s win.
Mitchell Marsh captains Australia, with key players like Travis Head, Glenn Maxwell, and Hazlewood aiming to secure the series.
Meanwhile, Aiden Markram leads South Africa, relying on Dewald Brevis, Rabada, and Stubbs to level the score. Australia seeks to extend its nine-match T20I winning streak, while South Africa fights to keep the series alive and showcase their depth.
