South Africa Vs. England Cricket Prediction

The game might be over on paper, but knowing the class of the two teams, fans worldwide are in for a show in this last match. All bets are on as England tries to salvage one win and as SA look to increase their grasp and dominance of the cricket game.

The 3rd ODI match between SA vs. England is vital for both teams despite South Africa holding a 2-game advantage. The African side is looking to improve and cement their rankings ahead of the ICC world cup later this year in India, while England aims for a strong finish after falling twice. 

Therefore, there are many predictable outcomes, with both teams having different winning agendas. So, what are the teams’ odds and top predictions?

South African Team Preview

Various analysts see the African nation as the favorite going into the 3rd game of the series. To justify their claims, SA, led by captain Temba Bavuma did impress to seal the match. 

Bavuma will look to have another century after scoring 109 runs off 102 targets. As a sports betting fan, you can stake on him, hoping he carries the confidence into the 3rd game. Also, utilize Betway to try your luck with the country’s outright win.

Generally, the South African team is hyped and is in good shape to get the clean sweep.

England Team Preview 

The European team has, in recent years, found themselves struggling in several match-ups. They go into the 3rd game aiming to redeem themselves after the respectable loss in the 2nd ODI, where they went down 327-7. 

Jos Buttler was the best batsman, with 94 off 82 balls, and Harry Brook with 80 off 75 balls. Bowling is an aspect the English team should work on, considering their good batting results in the previous outing. 

A quick tip; Jofra Archer is set to play in place of Reece Topley, who was 0-74 in 9 overs.

Top Predictions

The Outright Winner

South Africa is undoubtedly the favorite, considering their 2-game win run. Their record compared to England’s also puts them as the best team. To assist you further with this Betway betting variety, here are their respective five previous games’ results 

  • SA: WWLLW
  • ENG: LLLLL

However, despite being the underdogs, England is set to give their best, proving the match can turn either way. 

Best Batsmen

The two teams have strong and capable batters, with South Africa Bavuma leading the way as the top player. Joining him are Aiden Markram and Rassie van der Dussen as the best SA batsmen.

On the other end, Jos Buttler is England’s best batsman, and he’ll be expecting help from Moeen Ali and Jason Roy. 

Best Bowlers

The first game’s man of the match, Sisanda Magala, is one to watch. With Anrich Nortje, they are the best South African bowlers, expecting to lead their team to a 3rd win. Additionally, Rabada might be included in the starting list, providing you with more betting options.

Meanwhile, the bowlers to watch in the English team include Olly Stone, a fast bowler (right-handed) looking to impress after a disappointing first two games. 

Also, Sam Curran is another bowler from the English side to watch out for. The youngster has been impressive and is looking to finish strong and perhaps inspire their only win in the series.

Conclusion

The game might be over on paper, but knowing the class of the two teams, fans worldwide are in for a show in this last match. All bets are on as England tries to salvage one win and as SA look to increase their grasp and dominance of the cricket game.
