SAF 1ST

OUT! Caught. Liam Dawson to Kagiso Rabada. Stock length ball, outside off stump down the track driving, thick edge in the air uncontrolled to short third man, caught by Archer. It's over! England have secured a comfortable victory, defeating South Africa by a record margin. South Africa started brightly, but soon lost three wickets during the powerplay and were unable to build any momentum in their chase. Aiden Markram got off to a good start, but it was always going to be a difficult task and he couldn't convert into a substantial score. Jofra Archer bowled brilliantly, taking three wickets in the match. The series is now level and hopefully setup well for the decider on Sunday

Over 20. 20 runs. Bowler: Kagiso Rabada. England: 304/2(rr 15.20)

Kagiso Rabada to Harry Brook. Back of a length, wide outside off stump on the back foot cutting, in the air under control to deep cover for 2 runs, fielded by Ferreira. England have posted a mammoth total of 304 runs on the board!  This is their highest total in a T20 International. Openers Phil Salt and Jos Buttler were in sublime touch, laying a solid foundation with a terrific partnership. Buttler looked set for a century, but fell short of the milestone. Phil Salt was unbeaten after scoring a magnificent 141 from 60 deliveries. Bjorn Fortuin was the lone wicket-taker for the Proteas. Can South Africa pull off a sensational chase and seal the series? Or will England's bowlers rise to the occasion and level things up? We will be back shortly with all the action!
