South Africa (SA)<\/strong> will be up against Australia (AUS)<\/strong> in the 2nd T20I match of the Australia Tour of South Africa<\/a> at the Kingsmead in Durban<\/strong> on September 1. There were a lot of youngsters playing for both nations in the first match, which Australia dictated, and they won the game emphatically. South Africa would be charged to make a comeback in the next match and level the series.<\/p>\n

The last match between the two teams was played at the same venue where South Africa won the toss and elected to field. This decision never proved to be the correct one right from the start. Australia lost Travis Head early, but that did not stop them from the carnage ahead. Mitchell Marsh, along with Matthew Short, played some excellent shots, which set up Australia for a good total, which was achieved by a match-defining partnership between Marsh and Tim David. They made Australia reach a stellar total of 226 runs by the end of the innings.<\/p>\n

In order to chase down such a huge total, South Africa<\/strong> needed to have a good start, which was, unfortunately, something they could not have. They lost Temba Bavuma early, but Rassie and Hendricks tried to stitch together a good partnership. However, once the partnership broke, it opened floodgates for them as they kept losing wickets one after the other. Only three players could score in double digits, and eventually, the team was bowled out for a mere total of 115 runs, with Australia<\/strong> winning the match by an emphatic margin of 111 runs.<\/p>\nClick Here\ud83d\udc49 SA vs AUS 2nd T20I Match Prediction<\/a><\/em><\/h5>"

Player Picks

8.5
C

Mitchell Marsh AUS | ALL

Marsh was sensational in the last game as he smashed 92 runs while remaining unbeaten and leading his side to a huge victory. He should be the one leading your side as well.

8
C

Tim David AUS | BAT

Tim played a goliath knock in the last match as he smashed 64 runs off just 28 balls where he struck seven boundaries and four huge sixes. He can be another good pick for the captaincy role.

8.5
C

Marcus Stoinis AUS | BAT

Although Stoinis could not do much with the bat in the last encounter, he was brilliant with the ball. He bowled just three overs where he scalped three wickets.

8

Tanveer Sangha AUS | BOWL

Sangha made a historic debut as he took four wickets in his first match while giving away just 31 runs. He must find a place in your team.

8.5

Reeza Hendricks SA | BAT

Hendricks was the only batter from South Africa who looked comfortable in the last game. He scored 56 runs off 43 balls at a strike rate of 130.23.

7

Lizaad Williams SA | BOWL

Although Williams was on a little expensive side, he managed to scalp wickets as well. He picked up three wickets in the last game where he had an economy of 11.

7

Tristan Stubbs SA | BAT

Stubbs is an explosive wicketkeeper-batter for South Africa. Although he could not do much in the last game, leaving him out of your fantasy side can't be a good decision.

8

Spencer Johnson AUS | BOWL

Johnson is another young and dynamic pace bowler from Australia who can hit the deck hard. He managed to scalp away two wickets in the last game where he gave away 33 runs.

7

Marco Jansen SA | ALL

Jansen can be a good budget pick fro your fantasy side. He did not just picked up a wicket but scored 20 runs in the last encounter.

Avoid Having These Players In Your Fantasy Sports Team

8.5

Lungi Ngidi

SA | BOWL

Ngidi failed to take away any wickets in the last game and can be left out of your fantasy team.

8.5

Aiden Markram

SA | BAT

Markram could not make his mark in the previous encounter and should not find a place in your team.
