A depleted South African side will take on Australia in the fourth ODI of the five-match series at the SuperSport Park in Centurion on Friday. Australia are leading the 2-1, although South Africa fought back to keep themselves alive in the series with 111-run win in the third ODI match.
The home side will be led by Aiden Markram in the absence of regular skipper and opener Temba Bavuma, who will be missing the game due to a right abductor strain. Apart from Bavuma, pacer Anrich Nortje has also been ruled out of the remaining ODI series due to lower back injury.
“Proteas fast bowler Anrich Nortje has been ruled out of the remaining two matches of the One-Day International (ODI) series against Australia due to a lower back injury. The 29-year-old underwent scans and consulted with a specialist this week, and will start bowling again this weekend under the supervision of the Proteas medical team. A further update will be provided in due course. No replacement has been named,” a Cricket South Africa statement read on Friday.
Mitchell Marsh-led Australia need to win the fourth ODI to clinch the series as well. Australia have already won the three-match T20I series against South Africa 3-0 before this.
