The verdict· graded 01 Oct

Australia beat South Africa by 47 runs via Duckworth/Lewis/Stern in the third ODI at Potchefstroom on 2026-09-30.

The claim said South Africa would defeat Australia and complete a 3-0 sweep, but both passages say Australia won the dead-rubber third ODI. That means the predicted winner was wrong, so the sweep did not happen.
