England vs South Africa 3rd ODI Live (England national cricket team vs South Africa national cricket team): Hello and welcome to the live blog of the third ODI between England and South Africa at the Rose Bowl, Southampton.
South Africa currently hold an unassailable 2-0 lead in the series and will surely look for a whitewash here in Southampton. After clinching an ODI bilateral series on English soil after 27 years, can the Proteas win it 3-0? Only, if the weather allows.
South Africa have won the toss and opted to bowl first but the start of play has been delayed due to rain. The pitch is under cover and so is the entire square.
Changes for both teams – Jamie Overton replaces Saqib Mahmood for the hosts. Mulder and Codi Yusuf are in for South Africa, they replace Senuran Muthusamy and Lungi Ngidi.
