Fantasy Tips – South Africa vs England 

Predicted XI

England: Jos Buttler (WK), Jason Roy, Jonny Bairstow, Dawid Malan, Eoin Morgan (C), Ben Stokes, Moeen Ali, Tom Curran, Chris Jordan, Jofra Archer, Adil Rashid

South Africa: Quinton de Kock (C&WK), Temba Bavuma, Faf du Plessis, Rassie van der Dussen, Heinrich Klaasen, Pite van Biljon, George Linde, Lungi Ngidi, Anrich Nortje, Kagiso Rabada, Tabraiz Shamsi

South Africa vs England – Top Fantasy Picks 

Quinton de Kock: The South African captain looked decent in the last match but failed to capitalise his start. De Kock should certainly be in your fantasy side as upfront he has the game to take the match away from England by scoring freely. 

Kagiso Rabada: The South African speedster went wicketless in the last match as England played him smartly. Come the second T20I, Rabada will be keen to perform for his and pick wickets much as he did throughout IPL 2020. 

Johnny Bairstow: After his sensational knock in the last match, Bairstow should be one of the first picks in your fantasy team. 

Sam Curran: Since IPL, Sam Curran has hardly had an off day and contributed with both bat and ball. In the last match, the all-rounder picked 3 wickets and played a cameo towards the end. Picking Curran in your side is a must as he will help you make a lot of points by contributing in every department.
