Teams:
After losing their first game to England, it’s high time for the Proteas as they desperately need to win this do or die situation. The skipper needs to give a thought on the inclusion of Wayne Parnell after his expensive spell of 23 runs in an over to Jason Roy. On the other hand, the squad has Chris Morris in their artillery who was benched in the first encounter.

After Jonny Bairstow’s unbeaten 60, which scripted England’s victory in the last game, the English team management won’t dare to rest for the 2nd rubber. Apart from Bairstow, Dawid Malan and Liam Livingstone are both itching to get a hit in the next game.
