South Africa began their journey in this ICC ODI World Cup with back-to-back dominating victories and quickly became one of the tournament favourites. It was a gritty Netherlands side which ended their impressive start though. Temba Bavuma’s side will look to get back to their previous form when they take on a struggling England in the upcoming match of this World Cup.
The highly anticipated face-off will take place at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on October 21.
The South African batting department looked quite pale against the Dutch bowling side. Excerpt for David Miller and Keshav Maharaj’s hard-earned 40-plus scores, there was no notable contribution on the scoresheet. On the other hand, England have not yet performed up to the mark in this ODI World Cup. The defending champions will be hoping to gather some momentum.

The Jos Buttler-led side fell victim to Afghanistan, a team which has secured only two victories in the history of the World Cup. The English brigade will be desperate to return to winning ways against South Africa to better their position in the standings.
