Commentary

That brings us to the end of our coverage of the 2nd of five ODIs between these two sides. Australia have claimed victory in both of them, and they are looking unstoppable as a unit. South Africa, with their backs to the wall, will desperately look to turn things around on Tuesday, when the two sides meet for the 3rd One Day International. Keep an eye on our tabs for our coverage of the same, and of course, a lot, lot more! This is Rajarshi, signing off on behalf of my colleague, Pradeep. Good night!

Mitchell Marsh [Australia captain]: Today was unbelievable, wasn't it? The way the boys batted, incredible to watch. A great day for Australia! Credit to our domestic cricket back home, the environment we're in, for the boys to come in and play this well, I thought Sean Abbott and Nathan Ellis led a young attack quite well. Adam Zampa did his job quite well. For all the young guys to contribute at some stage has been outstanding. He (Ellis) is a ripper. He gives a 100 percent every single ball, he's brilliant in the field and a great man around the team. Lucky to have such depth come and perform around the team. He's got a lot of cricket in front of him. The way both (Warner and Labuschagne) batted was outstanding, 110 off the powerplay, Heady and Davey were amazing, and for the way Marnus batted and just carried the innings along, our intent and execution with the bat was as good as it gets. Really proud of it. I'm okay to bowl, I'll start bowling against India, and I'll put the reverse sweep away, I think. We got a chance to win a series, just need one in the next three games, was talking to Adam Zampa the other day, this tour means a lot for us. As a young squad, we've focused on winning the series, and we'll look to do so in the next couple of games.

Marnus Labuschagne is the Player of the Match! Here's what he has to say: Most of them are family. It's always nice to come back and score some runs, obviously this win is special. I felt I left some runs out there, felt I could've pushed more and helped team get to 430 or something, but was disappointed a bit, it always leaves you wanting more. Boys at the top got us to lighting start, that put the pressure right back on South Africa, even when we lost wicket but we still had the momentum. It's not in my control at all, my thing is to enjoy cricket and if I go home, I can see my daughter, but if I get to play, I can play the world cup.

Temba Bavuma [South Africa captain]: Quite obvious, we need to up our game in all the different faucets and Australia came with the plan, we bowled well to restrict them to that score, they were looking to get in excess of 400. I think with the bat, little signs but nothing really, three guys got to 40's. but, when you are chasing a score like that, you need more than that. We didn't put the focus in the first 10-15 overs, we obviously didn't tick that box and from their side as well, they did put us under a lot of pressure, we couldn't get ourselves back in the game. We need to put it behind quickly, have to review this game and honest feedback on the areas we can improve on, two days and get ready to play our best cricket and let's hope we can match up to Australia's standards. We still back ourselves to keeping the series alive, have that opportunity and with that being said, we need to prove ourselves.

Match summary:

Australia win by 123 runs

Marnus Labuschagne 124(99) | Adam Zampa 4/48 (9)
Heinrich Klaasen 49(36) | Tabraiz Shamsi 4/61 (10)

They tried to make a match out of it, but 393 was always going to be away from the reach of South Africa. The Australia bowlers choked down on the runs throughout the middle overs, used their spinners to great effect in between, and were successful in breaking partnerships as soon as they began to pose as threats! The Proteas needed a big innings from someone, but that was not to be. Four batters departed for a score in the 40s as their line-up wilted under scoreboard pressure.

Make no mistake, the start to the chase was electrifying, and that's an understatement. Quinton de Kock and Temba Bavuma produced a clinical display of power-packed stroke-play over the course of the powerplay. De Kock was the more threatening of the two, striking the ball as cleanly as ever. The fact that the Proteas keeper had clarity upon the areas to target off particular deliveries made his knock all the more special, but when he departed thanks to a spectacular caught and bowled from Nathan Ellis, it seemed like someone pulled a plug off the run-chase.

Bavuma, though, kept going after the Australia attack, latching on to anything marginally short. The South Africa captain didn't last long after the dismissal of his opening partner, though - he fell trying to lap a googly from Zampa and was pinned on the pads. David Miller and Heinrich Klaasen looked to put up a fight, and were successful in consolidating for a while.

Klaasen was savage against spin, he looked to take the likes of Travis Head and Adam Zampa to the cleaners, but was undone by a skiddy slider from the latter one run away from a half-century. Miller kept at it, having been joined by Marco Jansen. The required rate kept climbing, but the 6th wicket duo tried their best to shorten the equation as much as possible. However, once Ellis trapped Miller in front with a searing yorker, the game was up. It took the Aussies around 6 more overs to mop up the rest of the South African line-up, and go 2-nil up in the series.

That is that! Australia prove to be too good for the Proteas yet again, and keep their unbeaten run in the tour alive!

41.5 Sean Abbott to Tabraiz Shamsi, OUT! LOUD SHOUTS FOR LBW, UP GOES THE FINGER! That is that, Australia win by a massive 123 runs and go 2-0 up in the series now! Back of a length, nips back in sharply and strikes Shamsi on the middle and leg, that was good to crash into leg-stump at least. It's all smiles and the hugs for Australia!

Tabraiz Shamsi LBW b Sean Abbott 0 (1b, 0x4, 0x6)

Tabraiz Shamsi, RHB, comes to the crease

Too good! That one was past Nortje before he knew it! The middle stump has been pegged back, and we are down to jack now!

41.4 Sean Abbott to Anrich Nortje, OUT! CLEANED HIM UP! Just too good a pace for Nortje. Back of a length on the stumps, skids through the gates and crashes into the stumps as Nortje was late into the shot. Just one wicket away now Australia!

Anrich Nortje b Sean Abbott 10 (13b, 1x4, 0x6)
