  • England and South Africa are both attempting to win the ICC Cricket World Cup for the very first time; England have been runners-up on three occasions (1979, 1987 & 1992) whilst the Proteas are yet to go beyond the semi-final stage.
  • South Africa have won four of their last six ODIs played against England (L2); including their most recent fixture in England by seven wickets (29th May 2017).

  • Each of the last four ODI meetings played out between England and South Africa at The Oval have been won by the hosts; the Proteas last beating England there in this format back in 1999, at the ICC Cricket World Cup.
  • England have managed to register wins in 15 of their last 16 completed ODI matches played on home soil (L1); in fact, they haven't suffered defeat when chasing in this format in England and Wales since September 5th, 2015, a current run of 19 games (W18 T1).
  • South Africa are currently enjoying a six-game winning streak in ODI cricket; that run includes a 5-0 whitewash in their recent bilateral series against Sri Lanka (March 2019).
