Australia v South Africa 2014: Combined ODI XI

With the commencement of a potentially nail biting series just a fortnight away, here is an attempt to pick a combined ODI XI from these two world-class limited overs international outfits.Note: The team is selected based on performances over a period of time and not just from the squads named for the upcoming encounter.

#1 Hashim Amla

The technically strong South African right-hander is an obvious choice at the top of the order ahead of his competitors. Adept in all conditons, Hashim Amla still strikes at a brisk rate, as well.
