England v S Africa Cricket 3rd ODI Odds

The England v S Africa cricket, 3rd ODI odds in this England South Africa cricket betting third one day international at the Oval has England as clear favourites following their ruthless victory over the Proteus in the 2nd ODI at Trent Bridge. The win by 10 wickets suggested that either England were absolutely brilliant or South Africa were absolutely awful, but it was probably a little of both. Stewart Broad who took five wickets for not many runs in his ten over stint really did look brilliant and his figures would have been even better had Andre Nel not slogged three fours off Broad's final over.

Of course there will be many who will be saying that we should not get carried away with two one day wins out of two, but there is every reason to begin to carried away with the performance's of the England team since Kevin Pietersen took the helm. Played three, won three reads his captaincy record so far and if they were to carry the odds in this latest match, then there would be every reason to think that we have an England captain and team, who really are able to hold their own with the very best.

It should be remembered that the South Africans are the number two ranked one day side in the world and if England can get the whitewash over them in this series then it is they that would move into the number two spot. It is a good target for Pietersen and his men. Odds for this match are England 5/6 and South Africa Evens. The odds for the top English bowler of the five match series has Stewart Broad at 5/1, not bad after this latest performance.
