Who will win England vs South Africa 1^st ODI Match today match?

England did not have a good outing in the two recent white-ball series against India. They lost the T20I series 2-1 and the ODI series by the same margin as well. The hosts have a strong line-up and will have to make a strong comeback.

South Africa, on the other hand, lost their previous ODI series against Bangladesh 2-1. They last played a five-match T20I series against India which ended in a 2-2 draw. The visitors also miss their key players, which is a bit of a worry for them.

England and South Africa have faced each other in 63 ODIs. The hosts have won 30 games whereas South Africa have won 28 times with one tied contest and four washed-out matches.

England seems to be better balanced and start as favorites to win this match.
