New Zealand v South Africa: Proteas look to build on T20I success in ODI series

Following their 78-run thrashing of New Zealand in the solitary T20I on Friday, South Africa are targeting a record-equalling 12th win in a row in the first ODI between the teams on Sunday.

Victory in the opening one-day international of the five-match series, in Hamilton - which you can watch live on Sky Sports 1 from 12.55am - would equal South Africa's previous best set in 2005.

Meanwhile. New Zealand are targeting a unique achievement of their own: having removed Australia from top spot in the world ODI rankings with victory in the Chappell-Hadlee series preceding South Africa's tour, they now have the same opportunity to knock the Proteas off their perch.

Ross Taylor, a surprise omission from New Zealand's T20 team on Friday, is likely to return, and needs 51 runs to reach 6,000 in ODIs.

He would be the fourth New Zealand batsman to reach the milestone after Brendon McCullum, Nathan Astle and Stephen Fleming.

South Africa, meanwhile. are expected to bring the rested Kagiso Rabada back into the pace attack, though David Miller's return remains doubtful due to a finger injury sustained against Sri Lanka.

New Zealand (probable): 1 Dean Brownlie, 2 Tom Latham, 3 Kane Williamson (capt), 4 Ross Taylor, 5 Neil Broom, 6 James Neesham, 7 Luke Ronchi (wk), 8 Mitchell Santner, 9 Matt Henry, 10 Tim Southee, 11 Trent Boult

South Africa (probable): 1 Hashim Amla, 2 Quinton de Kock (wk), 3 Faf du Plessis, 4 AB de Villiers (capt), 5 JP Duminy, 6 Farhaan Behardein, 7 Chris Morris, 8 Wayne Parnell, 9 Andile Phehulkwayo, 10 Kagiso Rabada, 11 Imran Tahir
