ENG vs SA Dream11 Prediction: South Africa out to challenge England amidst a few injury concerns – South Africa pace spearhead Kagiso Rabada got injured during the T20 series, and it is still not clear whether he will play. Worst, Dunne Olivier is also ruled out due to injury, and suddenly the visitors are looking slightly shaky in the pace department. However, spinner Simon Harmer returns, and he will look to form a potent spin combination with Keshav Maharaj.
South Africa’s batting looks strong with Elgar, Keegan Petersen, and Rassie van der Dussen in it. The trio have to do the bulk of the run-scoring against England, who are in red hot form. Jonny Bairstow has scored 7 hundreds in 2022, and he has also batted aggressively. The hosts have chased 300-plus targets in the fourth innings two times. All their batters have adopted this ultra-aggressive approach and so far, it has paid rich dividends. England will look to play a fearless brand of cricket against South Africa also.
