Over By Over Reports
South Africa and Australia met in the first men's one-day international at Kingsmead in Durban on 24 September 2026, with play due to start at 10am local (6pm AEST).
South Africa named Quinton de Kock (wk), Tony de Zorzi, Temba Bavuma (capt), Matthew Breetzke, Ryan Rickelton, David Miller, Marco Jansen, Corbin Bosch, Gerald Coetzee, Bjorn Fortuin and Keshav Maharaj.
South Africa will rely on spin rather than pace as their depth is tested due to injuries. The absence of Aiden Markram is a big blow, with the powerhouse batter missing for personal reasons, while Dewald Brevis and Tristan Stubbs have been left out.
