Sports Jumble

The first game of the Australia’s tour of South Africa will begin with the two teams playing each other in a T20I. The two sides will play a couple of T20Is, three ODIs and two Test matches in the matter of the tour.

This will be South Africa’s first series after the Cricket World Cup, whereas Australia have already played a couple of series, including the one against Sri Lanka. They had won both, the ODI and the Test series against Sri Lanka, but incidentally, lost the two T20Is to the Sri Lankans.

The side has a similar look to what had played in Sri Lanka, with Cameron White leading the team. White is in dire need of some runs as he looks to ensure that he can get going. On the other hand, it will be interesting to see how the likes of Patrick Cummings go.

South Africa will be led by Hashim Amla, who has had a good time with the bat recently. Dale Steyn will be missing from the attack, as will AB de Villiers.
