SA vs ENG Dream11 Prediction, Fantasy Cricket Tips, Probable Playing XI, Pitch Report & Injury Updates For 3rd ODI

SA vs ENG, 3rd ODI Preview

After beating England in the first ODI of a 3-game series at Mangaung Oval in Bloemfontein, South Africa have climbed up one spot, and are now in the 10th place in the ICC Cricket World Cup Super League. In simpler words, the Proteas qualification for the 2023 World Cup in India will be impacted by this ODI series. Tempa Bavuma’s captaincy is under massive scrutiny only because he hasn’t led the Proteas to clinch any ODI series’ victory ever since South Africa clean swept Indian 3-0 back in early 2022. However, their most recent performance showcased how maturely South African players can handle pressure from the opposition.

Topmost Picks for SA vs ENG Dream11 Prediction, 3rd ODI:

Top Picks – South Africa

• Temba Bavuma – Having gone through heaps of criticism for his captaincy struggles, Bavuma answered his critics with a century. In the 3rd ODi, he is likely to improve upon his upward trajectory.

• Anrich Nortje – The right-arm pacer has been South Africa’s best bowler in this series. There are no doubts that he will again cause problems for the English middle-order in the 3rd ODI.

Top Picks – England

• Jos Butler – Given that De Beers Stadium is a tough wicket to bat on, the English captain will once be required to stabilize and compose the batting innings of his team.

• Olly Stone –  This right-arm fast bowler has taken 3 wickets in these 2 ODIs combined, wherein his economy rate has been less than 5.5 in both of them.

SA vs ENG 3rd ODI Probable Winners:

In the last 5 ODIs, South Africa have defeated England thrice and have even won 4 games more than the same opposition in the overall head-to-head battle. Seeking a direct qualification for this year’s World Cup, the bookmakers have ruled South Africa to demolish England only to register a clear-cut Whitewash against the reigning T20 World Champions. Our pick is the home side as well for the 3rd ODI. Considering the team combination, South Africa is expected to win this match.
