Bopara Left Out as England Bowl

Manchester: England won the toss and elected to field in the 2nd T20I at Old Trafford in Manchester. South Africa lead the 3 match series 1-0.

Ravi Bopara has finally paid for his awful form with the bat after being left out of the second Twenty20 at Old Trafford with his place taken by Luke Wright who will bat at No. 3.

The toss was delayed by 10 minutes and there is a large band of rain sweeping across the country which could yet arrive during play.
