Target 132
It's not getting any better, I'm afraid.
Two wides and another boundary to Markram to start Sonny Baker's second over.

Target 132
Media caption, 'That would have been out' - England miss lbw review
Another chance?
Jofra Archer thinks he has Rickelton lbw, but the umpire has absolutely no interest.
Harry Brook isn't fussed about a review - and of course, the replays show it would've hit leg stump. This has been disastrous from start to finish from England.

Media caption, 'That's a tough one to give' - Rickleton survives after edge falls short of Root
Not given!
It's one of those awkward ones where the ball kind of bounces into Joe Root's hands. It's marginal but Rickelton survives.

This is close.
We might be here a while.

Former England fast bowler on BBC Radio 5 Sports ExtraIt looked to me like it was a catch but the reaction of the keeper and second slip suggested it wasn't.

Umpire reviewpublished at 1.4 overs
Jofra Archer with the breakthrough?
Ryan Rickelton is caught at slip but he's not convinced it has carried to Joe Root.
Let's have a look.

Target 132
Media caption, Markram hits Baker for two fours off first over
Possibly some nerves for the youngster here.
Short and wide outside the off stump, and Aiden Markram punches off the back foot for another boundary, followed by a glorious cover drive for the same result.
The ball is pinging out of the middle of Markram's bat. This is a decent pitch.

Not quite.
Down the leg side and helped on its way for four by Markram.

He's got Aiden Markram, South Africa's hero of the World Test Championship final, in his sights.

Media caption, Baker out for golden duck on England debut
Jacob Bethell, who will be England captain in a couple of weeks' time, was caught at slip for one and poor Sonny Baker was bowled for a golden duck on his debut.
Keshav Maharaj was the pick of the South Africa bowlers with 4-22, while Wiaan Mulder took 3-33.

Michael Vaughan
Former England captain on BBC Sports ExtraThis is not a good look for the England team to not be able to just switch on and fight. The schedule of the summer is not great but that is not an excuse. England have let themselves down there.
There is huge talent in that team and wonderful players. This is not good enough.

Media caption, Rickleton takes Root catch on rebound
Media caption, Brook run out by Stubbs after mix-up with Smith
There may be a question mark over the catch that dismissed Joe Root, before Harry Brook was nonsensically run out by Tristan Stubbs for 12.
That left England 82-3 but still possessing plenty of batting in Jos Buttler, Jacob Bethell and Will Jacks.

It started pretty well with Jamie Smith's 54 from 48 balls.
In terms of what happened next, however...
Postpublished at 15:08 British Summer Time
Thanks, Sam.
Well... that happened, I guess? I suppose we could try and unpack it.
South Africa need 132 to winpublished at 15:05 British Summer Time
Well, they say a quick game's a good game. Not so much for England today.
I was supposed to be handing over to Ffion Wynne about now at the halfway stage of the innings but the home side didn't make it that far.
They've collapse from 82-2 to 131 all out so here's Ffion to go over how that happened and, in all likelihood, to take you through the entirety of the chase...
