The Proteas have changed tactics and their combinations for the must-win third and final ODI against Ireland at Malahide on Friday.
The tourists have made three changes to the team that lost on Tuesday, with Quinton de Kock and Heinrich Klaasen returning to the starting XI. Uncapped Titans seamer Lizaad Williams has also been handed an ODI debut.
David Miller, Aiden Markram and Kagiso Rabada are the trio that will be on drinks duty for this game.
Captain Temba Bavuma also changed up the game plan on Friday after winning his third toss in succession. Instead of inserting the opposition as he has done on both previous occasions, Bavuma opted to bat first this time.
