South Africa crushed England in first ODI and it looks like South Africa will came out victorious today also. England current scoring rate is 4.96 and required rate in 7.36, which is very much in South Africa favour. Even then South Africa must not relax because England still have eight wickets in hand and they need 246 runs from 34 overs which is very much possible. The beauty of South Africa batting today is that almost all of their batsmen scored runs today that's why South Africa gave a target of 330.

It was look like English side to make a comeback at second match, but I think still they are stuck beneath shadow of thier previous humiliating defeat by African, honestly it wasn't big target to be struggle while chased because they already done several but I think the momentum proteas got out them really ahead and the confidence English side lose some how predict the results early on. It's was so surpring because first they beat Aussies back at thier home and now English at thier home condition they are truly on fire. It's true that in both victories bowling side has played a huge role which should be appreciated.

Unlike the first ODI, this one was a high scoring one. South Africa set a large score of 330 in 50 overs. With Matthew Breetzke being the highest scorer. Jofra Archer took the most wickets for England and his economy too was better compared to other bowlers.
England had a bad start with Jamie Smith being a golden duck on the very first ball of their innings. England did took control after that and was poised to win the game. 47th over was the one which made the game swing to South Africa's favor. On Nandre Burger's over, they lost two important wickets and were able to make just 3 runs. They tried getting back in the subsequent two overs but they were short by 5 runs in the end.
