This ODI gets underway in South London at 12:30 local time.
England looked down and out at 8-3 and 28-4 in the second ODI but then produced an incredible fightback to win the match. They will be looking for some top order runs in this game to produce a better team performance.
New Zealand began Sunday’s game very impressively and were on track to go 2-0 up in the series. However, they fell away badly across the final two-thirds of the match and they need a stronger display in this match.

England Team News & Playing 11
ENG Team News
As expected, England have made plenty of changes across their first two games of the series and we anticipate that will continue in this ODI as well. Dawid Malan, who hit a half-century at the top of the order in the opening match, is likely to come back in at the top of the order.
ENG Key Players
- Jos Buttler - The right-hander does not have the best ODI record at the Oval but he will still come into this game in confidence due to his strong form over the last 24 months.
- Liam Livingstone - The big-hitting middle order batting all-rounder has suddenly found his rhythm in the series. Only Daryl Mitchell has hit more runs than Livingstone’s 147 from the opening two matches.
- Reece Topley - The tall left-arm pace bowler produced wickets during the middle overs on Sunday as he dismissed Tom Latham, Glenn Phillips and Rachin Ravindra across an eight-ball period.
ENG Team Form
England avoided their third successive ODI defeat on Sunday and have won three of their last five matches in this format.
