ENG vs SA Player Bets:

Jonny Bairstow, Joe Root and Heinrich Klaseen are my top three player betting tips for the ENG vs SA 3rd ODI. Have a look at it for reaping the best returns.

Jonny Bairstow to score over over 35.5 runs

England batsman Jonny Bairstow has looked in fine touch in the first two ODIs. He scored 63 runs in the first ODI, while in the second match the right-hander managed to accumulate 28 runs off 27 balls. In the 3-match ODI series against India, Bairstow scored 38 runs off as many balls in the second ODI at Lord's which the hosts won by 100 runs. The 32-year-old's red-ball form is not hidden from anyone. He has hit four hundreds in his last three matches. We are talking about his Test batting only because the batter is smashing balls there as if playing a white-ball match. Overall, the Yorkshire star has played 94 ODI matches and scored 3634 runs at an average of 46.58. His strike rate in the format is 104.12. Also, Bairstow has 11 hundreds and 15 fifties to his name in the format. In eight ODI matches against South Africa, he has scored 233 runs at an average of 33.28. At Leeds, the opener has played five matches and scored 154 runs at an average of 30.80. In a series-deciding match, the senior batsman is expected to step up with a superlative batting performance and score more than 35.5 runs. If you feel the same, head over to 1XBET and grab the odds of 1.832 for Jonny Bairstow to score over 35.5 runs from the ENG vs SA 3rd ODI head-to-head encounter.

Joe Root to score under 39.5 runs

Scoring over 39.5 runs in a white-ball could be difficult for former England captain Joe Root. In the just-concluded ODI series against India he registered two ducks in three matches. On one occasion he scored 11 runs. The series against India also marked Root's return to ODI cricket after more than a year. The 31-year-old started off the ODI series against South Africa on a bright note. He top-scored for his team with a brilliant 77-ball 86. Root hit five boundaries and two sixes in the match. But then again, the star batter was dismissed for just one run in the second ODI. That means that the Yorkshire batter now has three single-digit scores in the last five ODI innings. Overall, Root has played 157 ODI matches for England and scored 6207 runs at an average of 50.05. He has 16 hundreds and 36 fifties to his name in the format. Root has played 15 matches against South Africa and scored 681 runs at an average of 48.64. The right-hand batter has hit two hundreds against the Proteas. At Leeds, he has 421 runs at an average of 84.20. Two hundreds from his bat have come at the venue. But regardless, the one-and-off form of the right-hander can make scoring over 39.5 runs against a fiery South African pace attack consisting of Anrich Nortje, Dwaine Pretorius, and Lungi Ngidi, difficult. If you feel the same, head over to 1XBET Match and grab the odds of 1.832 for Joe Root to score under 39.5 runs from the ENG vs SA 3rd ODI head-to-head encounter.

Ahead of the first ODI, Klaseen scored 123 runs and 51 runs against England Lions in Worcester and Taunton respectively. Klaseen was also part of the South Africa squad which played a 5-match T20I series against India following the IPL 2022. The hard-hitting batter 81 runs off 46 balls to earn his team a 1-0 lead. His knock set the momentum in favour of South Africa wh0 maintained their record of not losing a bilateral T20I series in India. He finished the series with 118 runs at an average of 39.33. Overall, Heinrich Klaseen has scored 658 runs at an average of 31.33 in 26 ODIs. He has one hundred and three fifties to his name in the format. His List A career of 97 matches has seen him score 3031 runs at an average of 39.36. Klaseen has played only two matches against England till date.
