Lord's, London

ENGLAND team (previous match): Alex Hales, Jason Roy, Joe Root, Eoin Morgan (capt), Ben Stokes, Jos Buttler (wk), Moeen Ali, Adil Rashid, Liam Plunkett, Mark Wood, Jake Ball

SOUTH AFRICA team (previous match): Quinton de Kock (wk), Hashim Amla, AB de Villiers (capt), Faf du Plessis, David Miller, Farhaan Behardien, Dwaine Pretorius, Chris Morris, Andile Phehlukwayo, Keshav Maharaj, Kagiso Rabada


This short ODI series was taken by England in thrilling fashion on the south coast yesterday, and now in Monday's dead rubber it remains only to be seen whether South Africa can nab a consolation win going into the Champions Trophy, or whether England can seal the whitewash.

Changes expected for the home side, with Stokes, Moeen and Chris Woakes all being rested, and Steven Finn, Toby Roland-Jones and Liam Dawson being called up; Jonny Bairstow will also likely get his chance at a start. Having rotated most of their squad through the first two games, it'll be interesting to see whether South Africa can complete their fine-tuning and settle on a preferred XI.

South Africa have never won an ODI at Lord's, having lost all three of their previous matches there in 2003, 2008 and 2012. Another 23 runs for Hashim Amla will see him reach a landmark 7000 in ODIs.

A few downpours are forecast for the afternoon and early evening, so reduced overs and Duckworth-Lewis are a strong possibility.

Play commences at 1100, 29th May 2017
