ENG vs SA 1st T20I Predictions & Betting Tips

England and South Africa will lock horns in the first T20I at the County Ground in Bristol on Wednesda🐽y, July 27. The preceding 3-match ODI series ended in a 1-1 draw after rain deemed the conditions unfavourable to play in the third and decisive ꩲmatch.

The two teams will look to start afresh when they meet each other in the shortest format of the game. The second and third T20I will be played on July 28 and 31 respectively. The two teams have played a total of 22 T20I matches against each other. Engl🎐and have won 11 matches, one more than the Proteas. David Miller will be seen captaining the South African team in the 3-match series.

As we gear up for the 1st T20I , I have brought to you the best three betting tips fromܫ the ENG vs SA 1st T20I head-to-head encounter.

ENG vs SA Player Bet:

L♒ia♛m Livingstone, Quinton de Kock and Dawid Malan are my top three player betting tips for the ENG vs SA 1st T20I. Have a look at it for reaping the best returns.

Liam Livingstone to score over 17.5 runs

Liam Livingstone has played a total of 20 T20I matches for England and scored 342 runs at an average of 24.42 and a gigantic strike rate of 154.75. He has hit a fifty but has a hundred to his name in the format. In 191 T20 matches, the right-hander has scored 467𓂃8 runs including two hundreds and 28 fifties at an average of 29.07. The 28-year-old got an opportunity to bat in the first ODI against South Africa where he scored 38 runs off just 26 balls. During the third match of the 3-match T20I series against England on July 10, Livingstone scored unbeaten 42 runs off 29 balls as England posted a massive 216-run target which India failed to chase by 17 runs. In the Vitality Blast 2022, Livingstone scored 164 runs in seven matches at an average of 27.33 in six innings.

The Cumberland-born cricketer doesn't have a fancy T20I record against South Afric▨a. In the three matches he h🐎as played against them, he has scored 44 runs at an average of 14.66. He has scores of 42*, 15, 0, 6 and 16 in his last five T20I innings. However, we expect Livingstone, who scored 437 runs at 36.41 for Punjab Kings (PBKS) in IPL 2022, to come good and score over 17.5 runs against South Africa in the first T20I. If you feel the same, head over to Pari Match and grab the odds of 1.87 for Liam Livingstone to score over 17.5 runs from the ENG vs SA 1st T20I head-to-head encounter.

Quinton de Kock to score over 35.5 runs

In the rain-marred third ODI, Quinton de Kock scored unbeaten 92 runs off just 76 deliveries. Following the IPL 2022, he was part of the South Africa squad for the 5🍬-match T20I series. However, he could manage scores of 22 and 14 runs in the two innings he came out to bat. Earlier, the 29-year-old, playing in his second last match of the IPL 2022 scored unbeaten 140 runs against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR).

De Kock has eleven fifties to his name in the format. The blazing knock in the third ODI must have given de Kock a lot of confidence and we expect him to score over 35.5 runs against England in the 1st T20I. If you feel the same, head over to 1XBET Match and grab the odds of 1.832 for Quinton de Kock to score over 35.5 runs from the ENG vs SA 1st T20I head-to-head encounter.
