The touring New Zealand cricket team comes face to face with their hosts in the third ODI that begins Friday today at Senwes Park, Potchefstroom.
When the Visitors lost the test series, everyone was skeptic about their performance in the ODIs - but the ODIs have shown a different and resilient face of the New Zealanders who have completely takena u-turn from their test series performance and have dominated the South Africans.
The last time New Zealand won a three-match series 3-0 against a major team was in 2006-07, when they beat Australia at home. However, South Africa have never lost all the matches of a three-match series at home and it is expected that are going to come back into the game and avert a whitewash humiliation.
The possible oppsoing squads for the 1st ODI:
South Africa:
F du Plessis*, F Behardien, Q de Kock†, D Elgar, CA Ingram, RK Kleinveldt, R McLaren, DA Miller, M Morkel, RJ Peterson, AM Phangiso, GC Smith, DW Steyn, LL Tsotsobe
New Zealand:
BB McCullum*, TA Boult, GD Elliott, JEC Franklin, MJ Guptill, RM Hira, MJ McClenaghan, NL McCullum, KD Mills, C Munro, JDS Neesham, RJ Nicol, N Wagner, BJ Watling†, KS Williamson
Umpires Enamul Haque and AT Holdstock
The Test match is scheduled on Tuesday, 22 January at 14:30 local time (12:30 GMT) at Senwes Park, Potchefstroom.
