South Africa tour of England: ODI series – South Africa opt to bat in the 3rd ODI – Toss Report
South African captain http://www.senore.com/Cricket/England-c56013 and opted to bat, in the third One Day International of the series, underway at The Kia Oval, London today, Friday, August 31,
2012.
It is the same ground where the Proteas had demolished the Poms by an innings margin in the first Test of the three-match series, a few weeks ago. About his decision to bat first, the Pretoria wicketkeeper batsman said that they are
looking forward to put a staggering total on the board by scoring fast right from the start of the innings, and put the opposition under immense pressure.
South Africa have made one change to their squad, as Dale Steyn, who missed the opening two ODIs due to an injury, return to the playing XI. Steyn replaced http://www.senore.com/Cricket/R-McLaren-c2232 in the squad that won the previous match at Southampton by 80 runs.
Another good news for the South African fans from Kennington Oval, London is that run machine, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/HM-Amla-c1557 has fully recovered from the back tweak he had sustained while scoring scintillating 150 at the Rose Bowl, earlier this week.
The hosts have made two changes to their squad. http://www.senore.com/Cricket/GP-Swann-c1501 made way for James Tredwell, due to a troublesome elbow. Swann’s
untimely injury could be a huge blow for the hosts, as the Oval wicket traditionally favours spin bowlers.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/South-Africa-c757 currently lead the series 1-0, and need to win this series in order to retain their top ODI spot.
