Bracken, who missed Australia A's first match of the series in Brisbane on 4 April due to family bereavement, will fly home to Sydney tonight.

A replacement player will be named in due course.

Australia A defeated South Africa A by 64 runs in the day-night clash at the Gabba in match one (4 April), and claimed a 25-run win at Canberra's Manuka Oval on Sunday (6 April).

Rain caused an abandonment of the third match in Melbourne, while play continues today in Hobart.
