  It was conjectured by Kotlar and Ziv that for any two bases $B_1$ and $B_2$
in a matroid $M$ and any subset $X \subset B_1$, there is a subset $Y$ and
orderings $x_1 \prec x_2 \prec \cdots \prec x_k$ and $y_1 \prec y_2 \prec
\cdots \prec y_k$ of $X$ and $Y$, respectively, such that for $i = 1, \dots
,k$, $B_1 - \{ x_1, \dots ,x_i\} + \{y_1, \dots ,y_k \}$ and $B_2 - \{ y_1,
\dots ,y_i\} + \{x_1, \dots ,x_k \}$ are bases; that is, $X$ is serially
exchangeable with $Y$. Let $M$ be a rank-$n$ matroid which is representable
over $\mathbb{F}_q.$ We show that for $q>2,$ if bases $B_1$ and $B_2$ are
chosen randomly amongst all bases of $M$, and if a subset $X$ of size $k \le
\ln(n)$ is chosen randomly in $B_1$, then with probability tending to one as $n
\rightarrow \infty$, there exists a subset $Y\subset B_2$ such that $X$ is
serially exchangeable with $Y.$
