England Playing 11 for ENG vs SA 3rd Test: In an important news development, home team England have announced their official playing XI for the third and final Test match against South Africa scheduled to begin from 8 September, 2022 (Thursday) at the Kennington Oval in London. England managed to make a strong comeback after having lost the opening Test match by a big margin as the hosts registered a superb innings and 85-run win over South Africa in the 2nd Test. The ENG vs SA three-match Test series currently stands levelled with a 1-1 scoreline.
The England & Wales Cricket Board (ECB) have once again revealed their playing 11 on the eve of the upcoming 3rd Test match against South Africa starting from Thursday. The biggest news is that right-handed batsman Harry Brook will be making his Test debut in place of injured Jonny Bairstow. The 23-year-old has already notched up more than 3000 runs in first-class cricket at a fine average of 36.08 that includes as many as 17 half-centuries and 7 hundreds. The rest of the English team is the same one that defeated South Africa in Manchester and this also means that Zak Crawley will have one more opportunity to prove his worth in this Test team.
