<![CDATA[Australia vs South Africa, 3rd ODI: Match Highlights and key performances]]> https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/australia-vs-south-africa-3rd-odi-match-highlights-and-key-performances/ https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/australia-vs-south-africa-3rd-odi-match-highlights-and-key-performances/ Sun, 24 Aug 2025 16:23:21 GMT

Australia produced a record-breaking performance in the third ODI against South Africa, clinching victory by a massive 276-run margin to seal a dominant win. After losing the series 2-1, the Aussies ensured they ended on a high with one of their finest batting displays in recent times. Opting to bat first after winning the toss, Australia’s top order dismantled South Africa’s bowling attack. The Proteas, who had already secured the series, were left helpless against the relentless aggression and precision shown by Australia’s batters.

The innings was set up by Travis Head’s blistering knock of 142 off just 103 balls, studded with 17 boundaries and 5 sixes. His partnership with captain Mitchell Marsh laid the perfect foundation for a massive total. Marsh himself struck a composed 100 off 106 balls, showcasing his ability to anchor and accelerate at will. Their 250-run stand for the first wicket left South Africa searching for breakthroughs before both fell in quick succession.

Once Head and Marsh departed, Cameron Green capitalized on the solid base, unleashing one of his most destructive innings in ODI cricket. Green hammered 118 off 55 deliveries at a strike rate of 214.55, striking 6 fours and 12 sixes. Alongside Alex Carey’s brisk 50 not out, the duo ensured Australia crossed the 400-mark with ease. Finishing at 431/2 in 50 overs, it was Australia’s second-highest ODI total ever and an almost insurmountable challenge for the visitors.

South Africa fell short of target by 276 runs

In reply, South Africa’s batting faltered under pressure. The early dismissals of Aiden Markram (2), Ryan Rickelton (11), and captain Temba Bavuma (19) left them reeling at 39/3 within six overs. Dewald Brevis showed some resistance with a 28-ball 49, displaying his trademark power hitting, but his dismissal sparked another collapse. None of the other batters could build partnerships, as wickets kept tumbling at regular intervals against a disciplined Australian bowling attack.

Cooper Connolly was the star with the ball, returning figures of 5/25 in six overs, dismantling South Africa’s middle and lower order. Abbott and Bartlett provided key breakthroughs with two wickets each, while Zampa chipped in with one. South Africa were bowled out for just 155 in 24.5 overs, losing by a huge 276 runs. Though South Africa claimed the series 2-1, Australia’s statement win reminded the cricketing world of their depth, power, and ability to bounce back strongly in any conditions.

While Australia have already lost the series, as the visitors are leading the series by 2-0 before the last game of the ODI series at Mackay, the hosts captain Mitchell Marsh chose to bat first in the last ODI. 

Travis Head, Mitchell Marsh, and Cameron Green scored centuries for Australia

Australian openers Travis Head and captain Mitchell Marsh smashed a 250-run partnership for the first wicket, which was Australia's fifth-highest opening partnership and the highest opening partnership for any team against South Africa.

All three top batters scored centuries in an ODI innings

It was the second time in ODI history that all the top three batters scored centuries in an ODI innings. The first such incident happened during the 2015 Johannesburg ODI, when the top three South African batters created history for the first time against the West Indies. After openers Hashim Amla and Rilee Rossouw scored 153 not out and 128 runs, skipper AB de Villiers slammed the fastest ODI hundred and scored 149 runs in just 44 balls. 

While all the top four Aussie batters scored 50 or more runs in the innings, it was the 23rd time in ODI history that experienced all four top batters with 50+ runs in the same ODI innings.

After losing the first two ODIs of the three-match 50-over series against South Africa, Australia looked to make a stunning comeback during the third game at Great Barrier Reef Arena in Mackay. Their captain, Mitchell Marsh, won the toss and decided to bat first on a surface that looked firm and hard and full of runs. 

Both the opening batters of the home side, Australia, Marsh and Travis Head, looked to dominate the Protea bowlers with some big shots around the park. A great moment took place when Marsh looked to club Aiden Markram over the covers. He got full elevation on the shot as the ball flew out of the park for a six.

The 250-run opening stand put the 2023 ODI champions in a strong position. Head continued to nail the big shots one after another, without any fear of getting dismissed. The left-handed batter celebrated a fine century and ended his knock with 142 runs in just 103 balls at a strike rate of 137.86, with the help of 17 boundaries and five over boundaries.

Marsh, on the other hand, also clubbed the big shots around the park. He also reached his century in 105 balls, thanks to six boundaries and five sixes at a strike rate of over 90. Australia looked good to get past the 375-run mark, having already accumulated 264/1 in the first 36 overs of the first innings.

It was an important game for the Australian side, who were playing their first ODI game after the retirements of Steve Smith and Glenn Maxwell post the Champions Trophy 2025. They have a few puzzles to set before the upcoming ODI World Cup 2027 in South Africa, Zimbabwe, and Namibia.

Horrible scene at Great Barrier Reef Arena during Australia vs. South Africa 2nd ODI. South African all-rounder Wiaan Mulder's back foot landed so badly that the pacer went down on the ground. The moment was scary for the cricket-loving fans. But thankfully, Mulder was ok and got back in style quickly. Moments after the poor landing, the Protean all-rounder took the wicket of Australia skipper Mitchell Marsh. 

South Africa is engaged with Australia for a 3-match ODI series after a highly entertaining T20I competition. In the first innings of today's (August 22, 2025) match, South Africa, batting first, registered 277 runs in 49.1 overs as they lost all of their wickets. Adam Zampa grabbed three wickets and a brace each for Marnus Labuschagne, Nathan Ellis, and Xavier Bartlett. Ellis has been in inconsistent form throughout the series against Australia. 

When South Africa's opening pair proved ineffective for the match, the middle-order batters took care of the matter. Matthew Breetzke scored 88, and Tristan Stubbs' 74 was crucial to fighting back against the Aussies. Tony de Zorzi's timely 38-run innings also played an important role in sustaining the early setbacks.

Another tight match between Australia and South Africa 

South Africa started the second innings by clinching a couple of wickets in a short interval. With only 7 runs on the board, Australia lost Travis Head and Marnus Labuschagne. To continue putting pressure on them, Aiden Markram, SA skipper, introduced Wiaan Mulder into the attack. 

When Mulder ran to deliver his first ball of the evening, it turned into a horrible scene. The back foot slipped, and Mulder went down on the floor. The scenario could be more horrible, but that fall did not harm him or Team South Africa either. Moments later, Mulder earned the wicket of Australian skipper Mitchell Marsh. Marsh departed for 18 off 25; Australia lost their 3rd wicket.

Two days before the start of the three-match T20I series at home against South Africa, Australia’s captain, Mitchell Marsh, has revealed that the attacking opening batter of the side and the ICC No. 2 ranked T20I batter, Tarvis Head, will remain at the top order plans for them during the upcoming Men’s ICC T20 World Cup next year in India and Sri Lanka.

After an exciting 5-0 whitewash against the West Indies last month, the 2021 champions will welcome a few familiar faces against the Proteas as the opening clash begins on August 10. Marsh and Head, who have an outstanding ODI record as openers for Australia, have yet to perform at the opening position in T20Is.

It'll be myself and Heady (Travis Head) up the top for the foreseeable future. We've played a lot together, (we've) got a great relationship, so (we'll) start there.Expressed Marsh, who sits at number three ahead of the 2021 T20 World Cup, with the right-handed batter smashing 185 runs in five innings.

Mitchell Marsh locks Australia’s opening pair before home T20I series against South Africa

Since the retirement of the former opening batter, David Warner, Australia has tried and tested various openers, including Glenn Maxwell, Jake Fraser-McGurk, and Matthew Short. But with Head’s return, they may look to lock for the sport for the competition next year. He also addressed the batting order of Tim David, who celebrated a 37-ball century during the third T20I against the Caribbean side after an early arrival at the crease.

We've spoken about it. We saw that in the Caribbean, he came in earlier than he would normally. His skill set is made for that. The more balls he faces, hopefully, the more games he wins us.Marsh added in Darwin.

The opening game of the series will take place in Marrara Stadium in Darwin, which will also host the second encounter two days later. The action, later, will move to the Cazalys Stadium in Cairns on August 16.

Lucknow Super Giants star Mitchell Marsh, the Australian all-rounder, hit his first IPL century during their 13th IPL 2025 match against the hosts and table toppers Gujarat Titans in Ahmedabad on Thursday night (May 22). With the help of this century, IPL has got a new story that started from its inaugural edition in 2008.

IPL 2025, GT vs LSG: Mitchell Marsh scored 117 runs

Lucknow Super Giants scored 235/2 in 20 overs with the power of opener Mitchell Marsh's brilliant century. After completing his sixth IPL 2025 50 and second consecutive 50 in 33 balls, where the right-handed batter slammed four fours and four sixes, he recorded his first IPL century in 56 balls. It was the seventh IPL 2025 century, which was the first IPL 2025 hundred by an overseas batter. Marsh scored 117 off 64 balls with the help of 10 fours and eight sixes before Arshad Khan dismissed him in the 19th over. 

Opener Mitchell Marsh had two important partnerships during that memorable century. While he had a 91-run opening partnership with Aiden Markram, he and Nicholas Pooran had another 121-run partnership for the second wicket. 

With his 117 runs, LSG opener Mitchell Marsh recorded the second-highest individual score in the IPL 2025, behind SunRisers Hyderabad opener Abhishek Sharma's 141 against Punjab Kings in Hyderabad during their successful chase of the 246-run target.

Marsh brothers with IPL centuries

Meanwhile, this century from Mitchell Marsh was very special because it was the first time that IPL experienced brothers' names in the long IPL centuries list. 

In the IPL 2008, the inaugural edition of the cash-rich tournament, Australian cricketer Shaun Marsh, the elder brother of Mitchell Marsh, became the first uncapped cricketer to record an IPL century. Serving for Kings XI Punjab (now known as Punjab Kings), Shaun scored 115 off 69 balls against Rajasthan Royals in Mohali. It was his only IPL century, while he played 71 IPL matches all for the Punjab franchise.  

Now, the latest IPL century from Mitchell Marsh set a first story of a pair of brothers scoring IPL centuries.
