ENG vs SA

England vs South Africa

First Match of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2019

Well, the wait is over. Finally! ICC Cricket World cup is on its way and we will have our hands on the very first encounter of ICC Cricket World Cup 2019 today between the host team England and the very fine South African side.

Both Team are coming into the world cup after playing two warm up matches each. England played their first warm up match against their arch rival Australia which they lost by a small margin of 12 runs. Here is a match block. Click for all the details of the Eng Match.

Next they played Afghanistan and trashed the young side by 9 wickets. This was a very clinical performance after the loss in the first Warm up, It certainly brought the flavor back to the world cup favorites.

South Africa’s first Warm up match was up against the struggling Sri Lankan team and they won the match convincingly after scoring a mammoth total of 338 in their first innings. South Africa’s Second Warm up vs West Indies has drained away as the rain came in pouring down right after the first 12 overs.

OUT! Caught. Ben Stokes to Imran Tahir. Back of a length, outside off stump on the back foot Steer, outside edge in the air uncontrolled to second slip, by Root. Tahir goes first ball, he's guided it straight to Joe Root at first slip. Stokes has two wickets in two balls and England complete a dominant victory here at the Oval. Expectations had been set high but these eleven men sure lived up to them today. After leaving some runs out there with the bat England were electric in the field, setting the tone from the very first ball. Each of the bowlers knew their role and executed their plans perfectly, the pressure proving too much for South Africa in the end. That's all from me at the Oval for today, join us again tomorrow when we'll be at Trent Bridge in Nottingham to see Pakistan take on the West Indies.

OUT! Caught. Ben Stokes to Kagiso Rabada. Short, down leg side on the back foot pulling, in the air uncontrolled to deep square leg, by Plunkett. Well struck by Rabada but Ben Stokes can do no wrong today and it's gone straight to Liam Plunkett at deep backward square. England have been impressive today.
