Australia deny SA series sweep in rain-hit ODI

Pat Cummins showed an encouraging comeback while Adam Zampa and Alex Carey returned to form, helping Australia to a morale-boosting win in Potchefstroom. Wicketkeeper and Marsh hit half-centuries with Peake also impressing in the match that was eventually called off under the lights due to rain.

Australia, who scored 322-9, vastly improved after their capitulation in chases during the first two matches. The victory ensured they avoided a whitewash in the ODI series in South Africa. amunra.qpon
