Betting Tips
The top batter total to score more than 72.5 runs
1.85
In one of the high scoring games at this venue between Sri Lanka Masters and Australia Masters, we saw three batters scoring over 73 runs. So, you can bet on the top batter of this encounter to score over 73 runs in this contest.
South Africa to become the team with the top batter
1.75
The Proteas have former greats in their lineup, such as Jacques Kallis, Hashim Amla, Jacques Rudolph, and Dane Vilas. You can expect one of them to emerge as the top batter of the contest.
The 8th game of the International Masters League T20 Competition in India will be played tomorrow between England Masters and South Africa Masters. This contest will be held in the evening at the BCA Stadium in Vadodara. This post will examine the match prediction, pitch report, match preview, and betting tips for this encounter.
South Africa Masters vs England Masters Head-to-Head Record
These two masters’ teams have played against each other twice in the T20 format. It was way back in 2009 and the two teams shared the honors with one victory each.

SAM vs INDM Team Previews
South Africa Masters
South African Masters have made a terrible start to their campaign in this competition. They have played two games and lost as many. As a result of this dismal performance, they are currently flagging at the bottom of the points table with zero points and the worst net run rate of -2.975.
South African Masters have lost three contests in a row now and will be desperate to turn things around with a win in this contest. Their last three defeats came against India, Sri Lanka, and England Masters.
In their last game of the tournament against India, the South African Masters scored just 85 runs while batting first.
Only Henry Davis, who had 38 runs, and Dane Vilas, who had 21 runs, offered some resistance to the Indian bowlers.
They were bowled out in 13.5 overs. The Indian top order made short work of this target as expected. The only bowlers to pick up wickets during the Indian innings were Thandi Tshabalala and Eddie Leie. Both of them picked up one wicket each, Tshabalala also bowled economically.

England Masters
England Masters are not sailing in a different ship either. They have also had to endure two losses in their first couple of competition games. They are one place above the South Africans because they have a slightly better net run rate of -2.278. Another similarity to the South African Masters is that the English Masters also go into this contest after three defeats.
These three defeats came against West Indies, India, and India again. However, they put up a good showing in their last defeat against the Windies. They went down by a slender margin of eight runs.
West Indies Masters batted first in this last England game to raise a decent score of 179 runs while losing six wickets. England Masters lost too many wickets during the chase and ended up eight runs short scoring 171 runs while losing eight wickets in the process.
The spinner Monty Panesar was the pick of the bowlers for England with three wickets for just 14 runs from his four overs. Several English batters such as Phil Mustard, skipper Eoin Morgan, Chris Schofield, Chris Tremlett, and Stuart Meaker got starts but could not convert it into big scores.

SAM vs ENGM Toss Prediction
Not many men's international T20 games have been played at BCA Stadium, a new facility. However, the last two games of the competition were played here, and both of them were pocketed by the teams chasing a target. So, taking to the field first after winning the coin flip might be wiser.
Pitch and Conditions
The BCA Stadium venue will be favorable to the batters. The short boundaries will also allow the batters to free their arms for big shots and get full value for money for their shots. Spinners might get some turn and grip from the track though. We are expecting clear skies for this contest at night.
The temperatures for the contest will be close to 21 degrees.
SAM vs ENGM Betting Tips
Both these teams have had a wretched time in the middle. They have both lost their games and are yet looking for their first win of the competition. The South African squad appears more balanced and a better team man-to-man.
