Match 39 of the 2021 T20 World Cup and when you look at these two sides on paper, there’s only one winner. England has been super dominant in this tournament so far and has ended up with 4 wins in 4 games, having qualified for the semi finals as well. There’s one more berth open and any one of Australia or South Africa can claim that, but a lot depends on the results of both matches being played today.
If Australia lose, all South Africa needs to do is win and is both lose, it comes down to net run rate. SA has got 3 wins in 4 games this tournament, which is great for a team that didn’t stand much of a chance coming into this tournament. They’re clearly the dark horses but something against them right now is that they’ve not beat England in a T20I in a while.

England
The last game in Sharjah saw New Zealand struggling against Namibia spinners which means we definitely want both spin options of Adil Rashid and Moeen Ali in our ENG vs SA fantasy teams today. They don’t have any other spinners sitting on the bench, but there’s the option of middle order batsman who hasn’t had too many chances to bat so far, but can bowl a couple of overs of spin in Liam Livingstone.
With Tymal Mills leaving the squad due to injury, Mark Wood is likely to return to the side but since he’s not 100% fit yet, David Willey, Tom Curran and Reece Topley are the other options. Having played the most cricket in recent times, Tom Curran is the likely replacement. With the bat, Eoin Morgan hasn’t had a fifty in 20+ innings but his 40 in the last game indicated a return to form which makes their batting even stronger now.
South Africa
Talking about spinners, they have the top T20I bowler in Tabraiz Shamsi who has 6 scalps in 4 games this tournament and in his only game at Sharjah, he picked up a 3-fer as well, so he’s someone who could even be picked as fantasy captain or vice-captain. Keshav Maharaj has struggled in this tournament with 3 wickets in 4 games but he’s experienced so should make your ENG vs SA Dream11 team. On the bench, they have Bjorn Fortuin as well!

But it’s unlikely they make any changes because the fast bowling unit has been great too, especially Anrich Nortje. Among the batsmen, Aiden Markram has looked comfortable on these pitches and he did so even in IPL 2021, so should make your PlayerzPot (Use Code “READ1234“) ENG vs SA fantasy team. When they last played at Sharjah, Temba Bavuma top scored with 46 runs and it may be worth picking him too!
