SA vs AUS: Terrific ton from Aiden Markram helps South Africa halt Australia's juggernaut
India TV NewsA century of the highest order from the Player of the Match Aiden Markram, backed up by a terrific bowling display from young right-arm pacer Gerald Coetzee helped South Africa halt Australia's juggernaut on Tuesday, September 12 as the hosts won the third ODI to keep their hopes of winning the series alive. Asked to bat first and put a score on the board while playing at Sedgars Park in Potchefstroom, South Africa got off to a dream start. The Australian bowling was a bit thin in the absence of star spinners Adam Zampa and Ashton Agar and the South African batters made full use of the same. David Warner and Travis Head put together a 79-run stand in just 7.5 overs and had the South African bowlers to their mercy before Sisanda Magala dismissed Head to provide the much-needed breakthrough for the Bavuma-led side.
