Predicted Lineups:
England: Jason Roy, Jonny Bairstow, Joe Root, Eoin Morgan, Ben Stokes, Jos Buttler, Moeen Ali, Chris Woakes, Liam Plunkett, Jofra Archer, Adil Rashid.
South Africa: Hashim Amla, Quinton de Kock, Aiden Markram, Faf du Plessis, JP Duminy, David Miller, Andile Phehlukwayo, Dwaine Pretorius/Chris Morris, Kagiso Rabada, Lungi Ngidi, Imran Tahir.
Team News:
- South African pace spearhead Dale Steyn has been ruled out of this match because of a shoulder injury. One of Pretorius or Morris is likely to replace him.
- England skipper Eoin Morgan has recovered from his finger injury and is fit to play in the match.
- Markram and Miller are likely to start ahead of van der Dussen for South Africa.

Conditions:
- The weather in the morning is expected to be cloudy with a very small chance for showers.
- Cloud cover may result in some assistance for the seamers in the morning.
- The pitch has a greenish tinge to it although most of it is expected to be flattened down by a roller.
- The Oval is generally a paradise for batsmen.
My Verdict:
- The team winning the toss would be most likely opting to field first.
- Even without Steyn, South Africa possess a fearsome bowling unit that can hurt the English batsmen.
- English batsmen, however, are in scintillating form and will be hopeful of posting a total in excess of 300 if they bat first.
- If the English seamers can get Amla and De Kock early on, South Africa’s brittle middle order may be exposed.
- My Prediction: England to win.
Captain and Vice-Captain Picks:
- Jason Roy
- Jonny Bairstow/Jos Buttler
- Hashim Amla
- Joe Root
- De Kock
- Adil Rashid
- Rabada
