SA vs ENG Key Players

Temba Bavuma

Intent and batting form has been an issue for Temba Bavuma in white-ball cricket. He went unsold in the SA20 as well, but remains skipper despite a lot of scrutiny. His ODI record though is a touch better than his T20 record, and that will be an aspect Bavuma will want to use to find more intent.

Jason Roy

Jason Roy was in the spotlight over the last year with his form. He was dropped in between too but finally has some relief with an aggressive century in his own style. He took his chances and found runs after a really long time to get things moving again.

SA vs ENG Match Tips

A full strength England are always favorites despite the result of the last ODI series between the two sides. With a flat track expected, England will back themselves all the more.
