The ODI series between England and South Africa ended on 1-1 after the third and final ODI ended was abandoned due to rain. The T20 series went in South Africa’s way 2-1 after the visitors won the first two games. England secured a consolation victory in the third.

However, South Africa suffered a huge blow before the Test series as fast bowler Duanne Olivier has been ruled out of the series after suffering a grade 2 right hip flexor muscle tear. He picked up the injury during the tour match against England Lions. No replacement has been named. ??

On the other hand, the hosts will be bolstered by the return of Ollie Robinson. The seamer, who hasn’t played for England since the West Indies tour due to a back injury earlier this year, is named for the first two Tests.

Robinson replaces Jamie Overton in the 14-man squad. Ben Foakes has been trusted to keep the wickets against South Africa. Foakes missed the India Test due to COVID-19. Uncapped Harry Brook has been retained.
