#3 Have South Africa found the right bowling combination for CT?
With four all-rounders at their disposal, South Africa were using the previous two series to find the right way to use them. They knew right through that Rabada would be the one opening the bowling from one end.
Morris' sensational bowling with the new ball in this series had put him on the front seat to open with Rabada. But Parnell had also bowled decently. The form of Phehlukwayo and Pretorius kept improving with each game and their superb shows with the bat now mean the combination in the final ODI might be the one they use in CT.
Parnell wasn't part of the eleven in the final game, and could find himself sidelined in the Champions Trophy as well if Pretorius and Phehlukwayo keep putting in performances as good as this.
