England and West Indies complete Group Two and face each other at 01:30 BST
Saurabh Netravalkar has a rueful smile on his face as a thick edge from Tristan Stubbs flies just wide of the diving wicketkeeper and away for a fortunate four.
We then see some brilliant death bowling from Netravalkar, who bowls some excellent wide yorkers that yield four straight dot balls.
In the 19th over of a T20 match that is remarkable.

That was a good comeback form Ali Khan after being pummelled for six by Heinrich Klaasen earlier in the over.

A beautiful shot from Klaasen, he lofted his drive over cover. That is a serious shot.
Raw power, excellent technique and wonderful timing combine for Heinrich Klaasen, who muscles a drive over the covers and away for a huge six.
What a shot.
A wonderful moment for Harmeet Singh as he removes Quinton de Kock and David Miller in successive deliveries.

That was a big gamble Aaron Jones took and it paid off. A strong comeback from Jessy Singh.
Well, that could have been a lot worse.
It is a bits and pieces over from Jessy Singh, including two wides, but South Africa cannot get him away, with just the eight runs off it.
That will make Jessy Singh feel a lot better.
Jessy Singh is back into the attack.
His first over went for 28...

Heinrich Klaasen looks like he is in finisher mode as he clubs Nosthush Kenjige over long-off for six. That was pretty dismissive.
Four singles follow before a well-timed push into the on side brings two.
South Africa still look on for a hefty total here.
Markram c Ali Khan b Netravalkar 46 (SA 141-4)
Another one goes! A positive move from USA skipper Aaron Jones as he brings Saurabh Netravalkar back into the attack - and it pays off.
He varies his pace and length, dropping a delivery in full and wide that Aiden Markram cuts towards deep backward point, but Ali Khan is there to take a superb catch diving forward!
Markram departs just short of a half-century.
Another good over from Nosthush Kenjige costs USA just six runs as South Africa take stock after the loss of those two quick wickets.
As the WinViz shows South Africa are still well on top, but their momentum has just been checked slightly.
WinViz had about it 90-10 before those two wickets, so that double strike by Harmeet Singh hasn't made that much difference at this stage.
That shows the depth of the South Africa batting and the start they've made.

Harmeet Singh is comfortably the most economical bowler for the USA so far.

Relief for South Africa and credit to USA for fighting their way back into this contest.
Heinrich Klaasen to face the hat-trick ball.
Miller c & b Harmeet Singh 0 (SA 126-3)
And David Miller goes first ball!!
What a moment for Harmeet Singh, who leaps up into the air in celebration as Miller chips the ball straight back into his hands.
Harmeet is on a hat-trick and all of a sudden South Africa are wobbling.
David Miller strides out to maintain the left-hand/right-hand combination.
De Kock c Jahangir b Harmeet Singh 74 (SA126-2)
It dipped at just the right time - De Kock has to go!
A huge relief for USA as De Kock was hitting them across the park.
