SA vs ENG Dream11 team: As expected, the series started with a cracking match where the hosts defeated the visitors to grand 10 crucial points in the ODI super league. England had the chance to regain the number 1 rank in the ODI rankings as they needed to whitewash South Africa to dismantle India from the 1st rank but it is not possible after their defeat in the first match.
SA vs ENG Dream11 Team Fantasy Picks
1. Jos Buttler
The England skipper, as expected had to carry the inexperienced middle order and there was absolutely no support for him. He played a good knock but was unable to convert it into a match winning contribution.

2. Quinton de Kock

3. Anrich Nortje
Though he was on the expensive side, he picked 4 wickets in the first match that helped South Africa to win the game from nowhere. He is an excellent option for vice captain in small leagues.

18 | 32 | 25 | 5.7 | 4/51 |
4. Rassie Van der Dussen
Rassie Van der Dussen might well end up as the #1 batsman in ODIs by the time this series ends. He is unstoppable in ODIs and no team has an answer for him at the moment. He would need to do the carry job again if South Africa are to seal the series.

39 | 1636 | 71 | 90 | 134 | 111, 26, 0, 134, 4 |
5. Dawid Malan
The southpaw is an excellent option for captain in small leagues from England. He plays low risk cricket and is a very good accumulator of runs. He also has brilliant records in ODIs.
