Australia Playing 11 vs South Africa – ICC World Cup 2023, Match 10. Australia takes on South Africa in match 10 of the ICC World Cup 2023 in Lucknow on October 12. The match starts at 2 pm IST and is the second game for both teams in the tournament. This is the first of five games to be played in Lucknow.
Australia are heading into this game after their loss to India in their campaign opener in Chennai. The team needs to do a quick turnaround as they get set to face the mighty Proteas. The Aussies just recently lost an ODI series against South Africa leading into the World Cup.
They will be playing at a venue where aids spin and they are short on spin resources. Ashton Agar is unfortunately ruled out of the World Cup and Adam Zampa and Glenn Maxwell are the only two spin options the Aussies have. India negated their threat particularly well in the match not giving them wickets and particularly playing the leggie well.
Pat Cummins, the skipper has got a few selection headaches ahead of this game in terms of getting the right combination. They will continue to miss Travis Head and Ashton Agar. Given the resources they have, the combination they played against India was the best combination they could play in this game as well.
Australia were bowled out for just 199 in Chennai and needs to put up a better effort with the bat whether batting first or chasing. In this article, we predict their XI against South Africa.

David Warner
Warner will open the innings. He scored 41 off 52 balls against India. Against South Africa, he needs to come up with a better effort with the bat and possibly score a century to help his team post a big score.
