After a riveting T20I series which ended in a stalemate, South Africa and Ireland will be seen contesting against each other in a three-match ODI series starting Wednesday, October 2. The first ODI will be played at the Zayed Cricket Stadium and the same venue will be used for the remaining two ODIs.
For South Africa, this bilateral series is an opportunity to test their bench strength and finalise their playing combination in the lead-up to the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. Temba Bavuma will be seen leading the Proteas and he would like to sweep the series to gain some confidence as captain.
Bavuma has a decent record as captain for South Africa in the ODI circuit. The 34-year-old has led South Africa in 34 ODIs with 19 wins and 14 losses. His win percentage of 55.88 needs to improve for South Africa to stand a chance at the ICC Champions Trophy in Pakistan.
