Ground Dimensions:

⇨ The Adelaide oval has long straight boundaries which indicate full-length bowling. Anything back of length or short gets dismissed for boundaries as even mishits here can cross the ropes. Yorkers, full-length variations, and wrist spinners will be preferred here.

Playing Conditions: The conditions which are predicted to be partly cloudy tomorrow in Adelaide will have temperatures slightly on the higher side, ranging between 26 and 17 degrees Celsius. A batting heaven Adelaide, teams will still look to bat early on, though the quicks early on can get some movement in the air.

Dependable Trio for D3:

Quinton De Kock (SA) [captain]: Even though he was dismissed cheaply against Pakistan, De Kock is still the highest run-getter for SA in this WC campaign. De Kock and Australia are a good pair — 225+ runs in just 8 innings at a strike rate of 154. He is strong playing square off the wicket and will be well-suited at the Adelaide Oval. He has an average of 41 in the first 6 overs and can provide SA with a good start.

Wayne Parnell (SA): Opening with the new ball for South Africa, Parnell has been really good with the ball. He gets the ball to move around early on and takes up wickets at crucial points. His economical bowling creates pressure on the opposition, causing a flurry of wickets. He has taken 9 wickets this year at an economy of just 7.39. To add him to your team you can choose OG Dale Steyn (Bowler 1) on D3.

⇨ Rilee Roussow (SA): He has been hot and cold in the WC— a hundred against Bangladesh combined with low scores in the other 2 matches. Batting at number 3, with enough balls and time to spare, you can back on him given the track of Adelaide and how players— Virat Kohli, and Litton Das played here. He has a very strong average of 53 in the middle overs (7–15) with a healthy strike rate of 154, and can keep the runs ticking for South Africa.

1. Kagiso Rabada — (Morne Morkel— Bowler 2)
