SA vs ENG Prediction, 11 Watts Fantasy Cricket Tips: Playing XI, Pitch Report and Injury Update - England Tour of South Africa, 3rd T20I

Match Details:

The third match of the T20 International series between South Africa and England will be played in Cape Town.

The match is scheduled to begin at 9:30 PM IST (4:00 PM GMT).

Preview:

South African cricket has been on a downward slope for quite some time now, and what we have seen so far in the T20I series against England, a return to its normal dream may be a distant dream. On their own ground, the Proteas have failed to match the British in any department.

The Three Lions have gained a non-profit edge in this series and now their sightseeing will have only one thing – a whitewash. It would be disgraceful for South Africa to achieve whitewash on its land. Therefore, they are expected to do everything they can to avoid this happening.
