ICC Champions Trophy semi-finals: Top five players to look out for when England face South Africa

1. James Anderson/Dale Steyn

It is a contest for the top spot. Dale Steyn and Anderson are the two top contenders for the title of ‘the best fast bowler in international cricket’. Both the players play specific roles for their respective sides. They are wicket-takers upfront with their dangerous lateral movement, and they hinder the flow of runs at the death with their different abilities. Steyn relies on his pace, whereas Anderson depends on accurate line and length. Come Wednesday, the winner of this contest might dictate the tilt of this contest and, who knows, perhaps the direction of this competition.
