South Africa won by an innings in the series opener at Lordโs. England responded in kind with an innings win in the second Test at Old Trafford. That sets up for an enticing decider at the Oval, in which the hosts have elected to bowl first.
England (Playing XI): Alex Lees, Zak Crawley, Ollie Pope, Joe Root, Harry Brook, Ben Stokes(c), Ben Foakes(w), Stuart Broad, Ollie Robinson, Jack Leach, James Anderson
