SA vs ENG Dream11 Team Prediction (1st T20I), Fantasy Cricket Tips & Playing 11 Updates for Today's Cricket Match - Nov 27th, 2020
England and South Africa are back in action as they square off in the first T20I at Newlands on Friday. While England have already had a taste of the bubble life, South Africa will be faced with the unknown.
The Proteas are entering a a new phase with Quinton de Kock at the helm. They have a resourceful roster, with their bowling unit being key to their fortunes. The trio of Kagiso Rabada, Anrich Nortje and Lungi Ngidi was impressive before the suspension of cricket, and they will be keen on continuing from where they left off.
England, on the other hand, boast of perhaps the best batting unit in the world. The likes of Eoin Morgan, Jos Buttler and Ben Stokes make up a formidable middle order, and we've seen how destructive the Three Lions openers have been in the recent past.
However, the hosts cannot be taken lightly at any cost, which should make for a very entertaining contest to kickstart this tour. With both teams eyeing a win, Dream11 enthusiasts are in for an absolute treat on Friday.

Pitch Report
A decent batting track awaits both sides with some help on offer for the bowlers as well. The batsmen should be wary of the early swing and pace available for the new-ball bowlers, who should set the tone for the rest of the contest.
The spinners should also extract some turn later on in the game, but dew could play a part. Both teams will ideally look to chase, with 160-170 being a very competitive total at this venue.
