After securing consecutive thumping victories in the first two matches, Australia will cross swords against South Africa in the third ODI of the five-match series on Tuesday. The high-voltage clash will be hosted by the Senwes Park in Potchefstroom. 

The first game witnessed proper see-saw battle between the two teams, with Australia eventually winning the match by three wickets, riding on a glorious half-century from Marnus Labuschagne. However, the Men in Yellow showcased unreal dominance in the second ODI, thrashing the home side by a whopping 123-run margin in Bloemfontein. 

So, as South Africa gear up for this do-or-die game, let's see how the venue's pitch is expected to play throughout the contest. 


Senwes Park Potchefstroom Pitch Report

The surface at the Senwes Park in Potchefstroom is ideal for one-day cricket, offering balance between bat and ball. As it's an afternoon game, we anticipate a hard and dry surface at the venue, offering a hint of turn to the spinners. 

The bounce is expected to be even, with the track offering minimal seam movement throughout the match. As it has been the case in Potchefstroom, the track might get better to bat later in the evening. 

Also, considering the chasing teams have won eleven matches as compared to only seven by those batting first, the toss-winning side will likely opt to bowl in this face-off.
