South Africa will be playing catch-up for Wednesday's match at Bloemfontein, following their eccentric selection for the first match at the weekend. The selectors may look to bolster the batting order with the return of in-form AB De Villiers. He is 16/1 to win the Man-of-the-Match award, and 5/1 to top-score for South Africa. Mark Boucher at 12/1 in the top South Africa batsman market is certainly worth a punt, given the way the top-order fell away at Centurion.

Kabir Ali has impressed with his control in both outings in South Africa so far, and is an enticing 20/1 in the Man-of-the-Match market. Other England bowlers may be very much in the running given a pitch that offers a little assistance, so punters should look at Matthew Hoggard (14/1) and Darren Gough (16/1).

History
England have won both of their previous matches at Goodyear Park. Vikram Solanki made his debut here in 1999/2000 - although did not bat. Darren Gough is the only other survivor of that match for England. He took an impressive 4 for 29, and was named Man of the Match
