Afghanistan (AFG) and South Africa (SA) will continue their ongoing ODI series with the third match at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium on Sunday, September 22. It is worth noting that Afghanistan have already clinched the series as they have already won the previous two games. The home team will not look to change much and will be riding high in confidence coming into the game. Afghanistan also have a chance to sweep the first series between the two nations.

On the other hand, the Proteas will be playing this game for their pride. With poor outings with the bat in the last two games, the Temba Bavuma-led side will be hoping to better it before heading for the Ireland series.

However, going by how things played out in the last two encounters, the batters are unlikely to have things easy. The team that wins the toss will look to bat first.

AFG vs SA Probable Top Performers of the Match

Probable Best Batter: Azmatullah Omarzai

Afghanistan's all-rounder Azmatullah Omarzai could be the best batter in the upcoming game against South Africa. The 24-year-old has been in solid form so far and is currently the highest run-getter of the series with 111 runs in two matches. Omarzai is coming off a match-winning innings of 86* runs and he will be looking to do the same in the final game.

Probable Best Bowler: Rashid Khan

Afghanistan's star spinner Rashid Khan could be the best bowler in the forthcoming game against South Africa. The leg spinner had a brilliant 2nd ODI, earning the Player of the Match for his incredible 5/19 spell. Khan is currently the highest-wicket taker of the series and will be hoping to replicate a similar performance in the third ODI.
