England captain Eoin Morgan won the toss and inserted South Africa in to bat in their Super 12 match of the Men's T20 World Cup in Dubai on Saturday.

"Looks like a good wicket, dew will play a role here, as he saw against Sri Lanka," said Morgan. "It's a different challenge to play here, we saw an unbelievable innings from Jos Buttler the other day. We'll have to give our best in every match."

Temba Bavuma, the South African captain, said, "We were looking to bowl as well, but now we need to start well with the bat and then try and defend it. We need to do well in the batting powerplay, lay a foundation and then plan ahead."

South Africa went with an unchanged team while England brought Mark Wood to replace the injured Tymal Mills.
