Parnell replaces A Morkel for SA

September 30, 2012 15:05

Australia captain George Bailey wins the toss and elects to bowl against South Africa in the Super Eights match at the World Twenty20 in Colombo, on Sunday.

South Africa captain AB de Villiers is unfazed at losing the toss, saying even he was looking to bat first and hopes the pitch dries under the sun, making batting a bit difficult in the second half.

Australia make one change to their team, bringing in an extra spinner in Xavier Doherty in place of all-rounder Dan Christian.

For South Africa, left-arm pacer Wayne Parnell replaces Albie Morkel.
