Most teams prefer not to change a winning side and South Africa's strong victories in the previous two games could mean the same XI is used in Port Elizabeth. Roelof van der Merwe certainly justified his position with three wickets in Cape Town and the pace attack looks strong despite spin doing all the damage at Newlands. Makhaya Ntini, Hashim Amla, Vaughn van Jaarsveld and Morne Morkel missed out in Cape Town and they should again prepare for a day of spectating on Monday.

South Africa squad Graeme Smith (capt), Herschelle Gibbs, Hashim Amla, AB de Villiers, Jacques Kallis, JP Duminy, Vaughn van Jaarsveld, Mark Boucher (wk), Roelof van der Merwe, Albie Morkel, Morne Morkel, Johan Botha, Dale Steyn, Wayne Parnell, Makhaya Ntini.

Australia have added the Victorian Shane Harwood to their squad for this match, calling him over from the Rajasthan Royals' camp and he may edge out Ben Laughlin in the starting line-up. Harwood, 35, played Australia's two Twenty20 internationals late last month in South Africa before being sent home. Brett Lee and Stuart Clark will both be in South Africa when the match is played but neither will come into contention. Lee is training there with his IPL side and doesn't officially join the ODI squad until the series in the UAE, while Clark will have only just arrived. Clark will meet the squad in Johannesburg ahead of Friday's fifth and final one-day international.

Australia squad Michael Clarke, Brad Haddin (wk), Ricky Ponting (capt), Michael Hussey, David Hussey, Callum Ferguson, Marcus North, James Hopes, Cameron White, Mitchell Johnson, Nathan Hauritz, Stuart Clark, Nathan Bracken, Shane Harwood, Ben Laughlin.

Australia Vs South Africa Team news : 

Australia's most effective ODI bowler Nathan Bracken has been ruled out of tomorrow's must win game with a calf strain and Ben Hilfenhaus comes back to take his place. Also leg spinning all rounder Cameron White takes Nathan Hauritz's place who is consigned to the 12th man duties after taking an unimpressive 2 for 60 off nine overs in Sydney.  
Proteas will be without their star wicket keeper Mark Boucher after he was ruled out of the ODI series with a broken toe caused by a Shaun Tait yorker. AB de Villiers will don the gloves and it is a fight between Morne Morkel and Vaughn van Jaarsveld for the last spot in the team.  
Pitch conditions  
The picturesque Adelaide Oval has always been a batting paradise with it's short square boundaries, but of late this has changed with the bowlers holding sway with Sri Lanka's 8 for 274 being the highest score in the last three years. This also will be the first time these two teams have faced each other in a one-dayer at this ground. Excellent conditions for cricket has been predicted tomorrow and it should be a ripper of a game!
