Australia thrash South Africa by 276 runs in the final one-day international in Mackay to avoid a first whitewash in an ODI series on home soil.

Australia captain Mitchell Marsh has won the toss and chosen to bat against South Africa in the third and final one-day cricket international.

South Africa captain Temba Bavuma believes his side still has plenty of work to do despite defeating Australia 2-1 in their recent ODI series. While the victory was a boost for the Proteas, Bavuma stressed that the team is “not close” to where they want to be in terms of performance and consistency.
