Overview

England registered a series victory over South Africa in the Tests as Alastair Cook's men sealed a comfortable series win. They are hoping to emulate the same form in the limited overs as they look to replicate their form in the five-match ODI series.

During the warm-up fixture between South Africa A and England XI, it was the latter who had an upper hand with both bat and ball. It has been a good start to the series so far for the visitors.

The team led by Eoin Morgan registered a total of 368 runs in 50 overs, while losing seven wickets in the process. James Taylor, who was the star player with 116 runs, and the contribution of other batsmen helped them post a huge total.

An injury forced Jason Roy to sit out of the training and he will undergo a late fitness test before the first ODI. Failure to make himself available will see Moeen Ali being promoted to the top, which would allow Jonny Bairstow come back into the lineup.

South Africa have their own worries as they look to bounce back from the Test series defeat. Captain AB de Villiers, Hashim Amla and Faf du Plessis will have a huge task on their hands to shine with the bat, while the bowling division led by Dale Steyn will have to step up with the ball.
