ENG vs SA Dream11 Team Predictions: Heather Knight’s England are all set to play 2023 T20 World Cup finalists South Africa in their second match of the Women’s T20 World Cup in Sharjah on Monday. England fell to the same team in the semifinals of the tournament last year and would look to avenge that defeat and move one step closer to the knockouts.
England are a spirited team, having beaten Bangladesh in their opening game as well as New Zealand in their last warm-up match. But South Africa are a different beast and England would know that well, after a heartbreaking loss in the semifinals last year.
South Africa surprisingly lost both their warm-up matches against New Zealand and India but made a strong start to the tournament with a 10-wicket thrashing of the Windies. The Proteans have faced the Englishwomen in 24 T20Is to date, with the latter coming up trumps 19 times. South Africa won four games of those while one match didn't have a result.

England were restricted to 118/7 by Bangladesh in Sharjah but 16 overs from their four spinners provided them a 21-run victory over the hosts. They have the experience of playing at the venue once but the 30-degree Celsius temperature might not be suitable for the English ladies, add to it the 49% humidity.
The Proteans will have a bigger challenge at hand, having played their first match in Dubai, where conditions have been very different from Sharjah. The highest score batting first at this venue has been a paltry 119, which Bangladesh posted against Scotland in the opening game of the tournament.
