Match Preview

Australia will face South Africa in the second T20I at Marrara Oval, Darwin. The hosts lead the three-match series 1-0 and can secure the trophy with another win.

A victory would also continue Australia’s run of series wins, following their recent whitewash of West Indies. They head into the game confident after taking control late in the first match.

South Africa started well with the ball in the opener but were undone by Tim David’s powerful hitting in the death overs. Their batting faltered too, with captain Aiden Markram lacking support from the other end.

The visitors must find answers quickly to level the series and keep it alive heading into the final game. Australia, meanwhile, will want to wrap things up in front of their home crowd.
