The England v South Africa second ODI cricket odds for this England S Africa betting second one day international at Trent Bridge has South Africa as favourites at 4/5, while England are at even money. Strangely however, England are favourites to win the five match series at 11/13 while S Africa are 6/5. After one test match and now a first ODI as Captain, no-one could have written a better script for the new England Captain, Kevin Pietersen. A century and a victory in the fourth test at the Oval last week and a 90 not out and a victory in the first ODI the other day, could not have been a better start and his performances are already impressing plaudits. If England can follow up with a win here, then they will be hard to beat for the series. The first ODI was won after Pietersen and Andrew Flintoff put together a very impressive middle order, controlled partnership of 158. It was made in rapid time and proved too much for a S African reply.

Recalled seam bowler, Steven Harminson, chipped in with a fabulous bowling display which saw him take two wickets at critical times, thus breaking the South African's resolve. England will have a few reservations concerning the selection of Owie Shah at number three. It is known that Pietersen supports his position but there are many who believe Shah is better coming in at number five or six. He will have some pressure on him in this match to justify Pietersen's faith, but he is just the type to do it and is an 8/1 shot to finish the match as top England batsman.
