SA vs ENG Dream11 Prediction, Fantasy Cricket Tips, Probable Playing XI, Pitch Report & Injury Updates For 20th Match

SA vs ENG Match Preview

England and South Africa square off in Match 20 of the 2023 Cricket World Cup at Mumbai’s Wankhede Stadium. England, the 2019 Cricket World Cup champions, have won one and lost two games so far, with their win coming against Bangladesh and their most recent loss coming against Afghanistan. Most experts believe that England is not as strong with the bat or the ball as they were in 2019, but they still have some of the best players in the world to choose from. In this match, they will have to be at their best, and we expect them to be far better than they were against Afghanistan. South Africa’s defeat to the Netherlands was arguably more shocking than England’s defeat to Afghanistan, owing to South Africa’s high level of performance in recent weeks. They have a very strong team and should push England to the limit in this game.

Top Picks – South Africa

• Quinton de Kock – Ahead of Thursday’s game, only two batters had hit more runs than the South African keeper-batter who began the tournament with successive centuries.
• Kagiso Rabada – The fast bowler is one of the most accurate, hostile and quick pacers across all formats of international cricket. He dismissed top order batters Vikramjit Singh and Bas de Leede in the last game.

Top Picks – England

• Dawid Malan – The left-handed opener is England’s leading run-scorer in the World Cup 2023 so far with a top score of 140 and 186 runs in total. He will enjoy facing the pace bowlers for South Africa.
• Mark Wood– one of the quickest bowlers in the tournament, the right-arm quick will be looking forward to getting the ball in his hand at the Wankhede Stadium. He has 3 wickets so far in the competition.

SA vs ENG Probable Winners

This match provides an opportunity for both teams to demonstrate that their recent defeats to smaller sides were a fluke and that they are genuine contenders for the competition. South Africa has been in excellent form in this format, and it will be interesting to see how their players react to the loss to the Netherlands. England has not been very convincing in this format in recent years, but they still have players who can perform at the highest level when it matters. Considering the team combination, England is expected to win this match.
