Preview

Australia will take on South Africa in the opening match of the ODI series. This match will be played at Cazaly's Stadium in Cairns. Australia are the defending 50-over champions and the last time these two sides met was in ODI World Cup 2023. They were due to meet at the Champions Trophy but the match was washed out. Australia have had to make changes to their initial squad for this series with Matt Short, Mitchell Owen and Lance Morris ruled out which has opened the door for Cooper Connolly, Aaron Hardie and Matt Kuhnemann. Brevis is set to make his ODI debut for SA after a starring role in the T20Is. Bavuma will lead the side. This should be a cracker.
