England (ENG) Team Updates

England will have their task cut out, they are the world champions and need to play like one.
Their bowlers lack penetration and are not able to pick wickets in any phase of the game unless the batsmen themselves want to throw it away.
Jonny Bairstow and Jason Roy will probably open the inning.
Jonny Bairstow is in pretty good form, he scored an effortless half-century in the first game. His numbers in England are extraordinary.
Joe Root will bat at the one-down position.
Joe Root played a fantastic inning in the first game but due to lack of support, couldn’t take his team over the line. He is a bankable player against South Africa as he has great numbers against them.
