A win for the Baggy Green in this 4th ODI would be a powerful statement for the host team, given that the Proteas are going to be one of their foremost competitiors at the upcoming World Cup.
South Africa's AB de Villiers is our player to watch. He's the batted 80, 48, and 52 in the series' previous three matches.
Australia's Mitchell Johnson, the reigning ICC cricketer of the year, will not play. It's not an injury-related DNP, but merely one of rest. Nevertheless, his absence presents an opportunity for South Africa to capitalize.
Throughout the series, the team that's batted first has won every match. Both teams are no doubt aware of that trend and will be looking to put pressure on the opposition from the very start of the match.
