Who will win England vs South Africa 2nd ODI today match?

England are going through tough time since Eoin Morgan’s international retirement having lost their last three out of four ODIs. They also lost the T20I series against India. With Stokes’ retirement, there is a little bit of inexperience in the middle-order now and Buttler will have to carry the responsibility on his shoulders.

With main bowlers injured, the bowling attack is also struggling to large extent and we might see Reece Topley making his way back into the XI after starring in the India series.

South Africa, on the other hand, will be delighted with the way they performed in the series opener. They opted to bat first and posted a mammoth total thanks to Van der Dussen who smacked a century and got enough support from the other end. With the summer in England being the hottest, they will back themselves to seal the series after batting first yet again.

England and South Africa have faced each other 64 times in ODIs with the hosts winning 30. South Africa have emerged victorius on 29 occasions while one match has ended in a tie along with four washed out games.

Known for making gigantic comebacks, expect England to win this match and level the three-match series.
