One ODI match has just ended and there are still two ODI matches to go. Australia is a team that can come back at any time. I have seen that Australia will perform well especially when they are under pressure. Since they have to win two of the last two matches, I think they will definitely perform well under this pressure and beat South Africa in two consecutive matches. The result of the first match was really unexpected, because South Africa had given Australia a target of less than 300 runs, chasing this run, Australia should have won easily but they lost when they were caught by a spin bowler. Anyway, the mistakes made by the Australian batsmen in the last match, they will definitely correct those mistakes and enter the field in the next match and leave the field with a victory in the second ODI match, this is our expectation.

Two wickets are down for Australia and they cannot take the advantage of power play. I think. They they should had to gather as much runs as they can and should not lose the wicket but only a single over is left of power play and Australia are at 31/2. Another time Travis Head got out, I think he should needs to rest, however that is another discussion.
If we look at the South African power play score, then that was also not too good. South Africa made 56/2 in the first 10 overs, meaning power play wasn't good for them either.
