The Proteas will hope to carry that momentum into this one-off T20 match. Miller will again be a key figure with his power hitting in the middle order, while the likes of Dale Steyn, Kagiso Rabada and Imraan Tahir will feature strongly for the bowling unit.
Australia will be looking to bounce back to form, and will need captain Aaron Finch to regain his fluency at the top of the order, while bowlers such as Nathan Coulter-Nile and Adam Zampa will be tasked with quelling the tourists’ aggressive batsmen.
In head-to-head terms, Australia have claimed 11 wins compared to six for South Africa (plus one no result) in 18 T20I meetings of the teams. Their last T20I series was played in South Africa in March 2016, with the Aussies claiming a 2-1 victory.
