The third match of the bilateral ODI series will be played at Headingley, Leeds, between England and South Africa. England was all-out for 201 in the second ODI, which was reduced to 29 overs owing to rain. South Africa was then removed for a poor score of 83, losing by 118 runs. With the series locked 1-1, it will be a battle between both teams to win the series.
The Proteas will rely on the efforts of Dwaine Pretorius and Anrich Nortje, while England will rely on Liam Livingstone and Jonny Bairstow. The match promises to be an absolute blockbuster and we can’t wait to see what the end result is going to be.

England vs South Africa 3rd ODI – Dream11 Fantasy Top Picks
Liam Livingstone
In the reduced second game, it was Livingstone, who solidified the middle-order performance and helped his team get to a respectable and defendable total with his quick-fire knock of 38 runs off 26 deliveries. He has been in great touch for a long while now and England will be hoping that this form continues in the upcoming game as well.
Sam Curran
Along with Livingstone, Sam also put up a late stand to help England get to a decent total with his accompanying knock of 35 runs from just 18 deliveries. When put into bowl, Curran was able to give his team 2 overs in which he conceded only 5 runs and took a wicket as well. He is a great all-rounder option down the order and we expect him to keep these performances going.
Heinrich Klaasen
He tried to lead a South African fightback, and although he scored 33 runs, it was in vain, but the one positive that South Africa can take from the previous match is that Klaasen is in great touch and will be ready to give it his all in the series decider.
Rassie van Der-Dussen
He is still the man in form despite not having much of a say in the run chase in the 2nd ODI, but if there is anyone who can help South Africa win this series, it is Rassie and we expect him to put in a big performance in the upcoming series decider match.
