    Bat under the arm and Rashid marches off to end a pretty horrendous England performance.

    It feels flat as a pancake.

    Rashid c Klaasen b Mulder 2 (Eng 179)

    Well, at least that puts us out of our misery.

    Adil Rashid edges behind to give Wiaan Mulder his third wicket and England are all out for 179.

    Saqib Mahmood clips nicely off his pads for a couple as England creep closer to 200.

    Small wins...

    If (when) England are bowled out in this innings, it will be the 21st time it's happened under Buttler's captaincy, 48% of the matches he's captained. Under Eoin Morgan, the figure was 26%.

    It's been a walk in the park for South Africa. It's almost felt like a practice ahead of the serious games to come.

  6. Eng 175-9published at 37 overs

    Just a single from Wiaan Mulder's over as England's last pair just goes through the motions.

    South Africa have been excellent but haven't really had to work for any of their wickets.

    The dismissal of Jos Buttler has taken another 5% off England's chances of victory.

    Always bringing the good news.

    It has been such a cruise for South Africa. They have been excellent in the field and taken some superb catches.

    England's final hopes of posting something defendable lie with Saqib Mahmood and Adil Rashid.

    Jos Buttler tried to do the right thing in his final game as captain. He was rather sedate and he didn't look liberated today. The situation was hopeless when he came in today though.

    It was neither one thing or the other. It is a tame dismissal.

    Buttler c Maharaj b Ngidi 21 (Eng 173-9)

    We said it might be all or nothing - unfortunately it is the latter.

    Jos Buttler falls softly, driving Lungi Ngidi straight to mid-off for 21 from 43 balls.

    England have fallen apart.

    With 15 overs to go it has to be them or me for Jos Buttler.

    Surely it's all or nothing from Jos Buttler now?

    Jofra didn't get hold of that one but it was a nice innings from him and he helped to build a partnership.

    It will be interesting to see how Jos handles this now.

  17. wicket

    Archer c Jansen b Mulder 25 (Eng 171-8)

    It was fun while it lasted. In a way.

    Wiaan Mulder's medium-pace has troubled England throughout, and he gets his second breakthrough as Jofra Archer miscues a shorter delivery to Marco Jansen, who takes a smart catch diving forward at mid-wicket.

    That wasn't the conventional way but it gets Archer four runs.

    That was a wayward over from Jansen. He has a knack for getting wickets but in between, he gives a lot of extras and bowls a fair amount of loose balls.

  19. Eng 167-7published at 34 overs

    Aiden Markram being off the field does deprive South Africa of a second spin option, however, and they are quite far behind the over rate.

    Two wides in this Marco Jansen over won't help, as Jofra Archer top-edges the final ball of the over for four.

    Archer nearly took England over the line in their last match. He can hit it when he wants to, towards the end of a game. He looks in good form.
