The opening day's play of the third and final Test was washed out due to rain after Ben Stokes won the toss and asked the Proteas to bat. The series is currently level at 1-1.

Dean Elgar's side won the first by an innings and 12 runs at Lord's but got hammered by an innings and 85 runs in the second Test at Old Trafford, Manchester.
