England will lock horns with South Africa in the third and final fixture of the Test series at Kennington Oval, London. Ahead of this game, the series is leveled 1-1, and a riveting final fixture awaits us. However, both teams will miss their key players to injury concerns. Jonny Bairstow and Rassie Van der Dussen will be unavailable for England and South Africa respectively.

Talking about changes in England, Harry Brook has replaced Bairstow in the line-up, while Ollie Robinson has retained his place due to proficient performances in the second Test. In place of van der Dussen, Proteas are likely to bring in the in-form Ryan Rickelton. In addition, Simon Harmer can make way for Marco Jansen, due to the pitch assisting the pacers.
