World T20 Series 2021

ENG vs SA, 39th match, Super 12, Group 1

Preview

One of the strongest contenders to win this World T20 Series, England have made a resounding statement after emerging victorious in four consecutive games. They are playing true to their potential and are rightly at top of the group 1 standings. With 8 points in their kitty, Morgan’s men will look to continue their domination against an erratic SA outfit. Jos Butler has been the key to the English side’s success on slow UAE conditions. He possesses brute strength and power to hit a long way. The Aussie batting lineup will feature the likes of Aaron Finch, David Warner and many more. South Africa on the other hand need a win at all costs to stay in the semi final race. Aiden Markam has been their leading run scorer in the tournament so far and would be keen to continue his good form. Ahead of this action packed encounter, let us have a look at how these two units will fare out in today’s clash.
