A disastrous batting collapse has condemned Australia to an emphatic 111-run loss to South Africa in the third one-day international at Potchefstroom, their third-largest defeat against the Proteas.<\/p>\n

After Aiden Markram\u2019s classy 102 not out headlined South Africa\u2019s imposing 6-338 on Tuesday (Wednesday AEST), Australia were 1-140 in reply at JB Marks Oval before losing 8-60 and ultimately being rolled for 227 in just 34.3 overs.<\/p>\n

Australia have only suffered two bigger defeats in their history against the Proteas, by 196 runs at Cape Town in 2006 and by 142 runs at Johannesburg in 2016.<\/p>\n

Gerald Coetzee captured a career-best 4-50 after spinners Tabraiz Shamsi (2-29) and Keshav Maharaj (2-37) successfully applied the brakes on Australia\u2019s chase, reducing the tourists\u2019 series lead to 2-1 ahead of the fourth match at Centurion on Friday.<\/p>\n

David Warner looked set for back-to-back tons before his chaotic runout for 78 turned the match South Africa\u2019s way.<\/p>\n

Warner set off for a single, slipped over as he lost his right shoe, dropped his bat and fell short diving at the non-striker\u2019s end, beaten by Maharaj\u2019s direct hit.<\/p>\n

He and Travis Head (38) had put on 79 from 48 balls in another blistering first-wicket union against some shoddy bowling.<\/p>\n

Head (38) chipped burly seamer Sisanda Magala to Coetzee at mid-off before captain Mitch Marsh (29) holed out to David Miller off Shamsi.<\/p>\n

Warner rode his luck, offering tough outfield chances to Miller (on six) and Heinrich Klaasen (on 60).<\/p>\n

The over after Warner departed, in-form Marnus Labuschagne (15) was stumped by Quinton de Kock after being beaten by a magnificent wrong \u2019un from Shamsi.<\/p>\n

Another stumping from de Kock sent Stoinis packing for 10 before Tim David (8) fell on review to a contentious low catch from substitute Bjorn Fortuin.<\/p>\n

The lower order, some late swinging from Nathan Ellis and Josh Hazlewood aside, had no answers for Coetzee\u2019s pace and Maharaj\u2019s variations.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think there is a lot of relief involved,\u201d Markram said of the victory just weeks from the World Cup. \u201cWe pride ourselves on being a really competitive cricketing nation and when you don\u2019t play up to those standards, it affects the human as well as the cricketer.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo when you get a good result, it means a lot to us. And it\u2019s nice to know that we\u2019ve got the character to turn it around in a must-win game tonight. There are a lot of positives that we can take forward and a bit of relief as well.\u201d<\/p>\n

Earlier, openers Quinton de Kock (82) and Temba Bavuma (57) laid a superb foundation which allowed Markram to tee off late.<\/p>\n

The openers put on 146 for the first wicket before de Kock fell to the part-time spin of Head, who was Australia\u2019s best bowler with 2-39 off 10 successive overs.<\/p>\n

The Proteas crunched 93 off the last eight overs and Markram raised his match-winning ton when he thumped Hazlewood down the ground for four off the innings\u2019 final delivery.<\/p>\n

In better news for Australia, Steve Smith\u2019s preparations for the upcoming World Cup are under way.<\/p>\n

He posted an Instagram story earlier in the day saying the wrist injury he picked up in the Ashes \u2018feels good\u2019 again after completing his first net session since the England tour.<\/p>\n

\u201cA good first hit out today in the nets, finally my wrist is starting to feel good,\u201d Smith said in the video. \u201cIt\u2019s been annoying for a while. I hit them good today so hopefully some positive signs for what\u2019s coming up.\u201d<\/p>\n
