  1. 6 runs

    Eng 202-1

    Munched into the stands by Phil Salt.

    He moves to 95 from 36. England have 202 after 73 deliveries.

  2. Oh KG... It's a no-ball...

    Free-hit coming up.

  3. Eng 195-1

    Kagiso Rabada is back.

  4. 6 runs

    Eng 193-1

    Salt 87, Bethell 20

    Same shot, same result. Bethell goes four, six, six to end the over meaning Aiden Markram is punished for 19 despite starting well.

  5. Alex Hartley
    Former England bowler on TMS

    Welcome to the party, Jacob Bethell.

  6. 6 runs

    Eng 187-1

    Smashed for six by Jacob Bethell! England are motoring again.

  7. Eng 181-1

    Scratch that last.

    Jacob Bethell sweeps his first four off Aiden Markram's part-time spin.

  8. Eng 177-1

    That drinks break has worked for the Proteas. There has not been a boundary for nine deliveries now.

    Has anyone ever declared in a T20?

  10. Eng 174-1

    Salt 85, Bethell 3

    An over without a boundary - the first of the innings!

    Well bowled, Bjorn Fortuin.

  11. Eng 167-1

    We're back under way. Here's how Salt reached his fifty...

    I hope Aidan Markram's getting around his young bowlers here because they've been smacked everywhere.

    They're getting pummelled.

  13. Eng 166-1

    Aiden Markram is talking to his players in a huddle at the drinks break. From their perspective this has been the cricketing equivalent of that cheese-chasing race on a hill in middle England.

    A mess.

  14. Eng 166-1

    Salt 78, Bethell 2

    Drinks break, time machine, a massive sink hole to appear in the middle of Old Trafford. South Africa would take any of the above.

  15. Alex Hartley
    Former England bowler on TMS

    South Africa need the drinks break here.

  16. Eng 162-1

    Again, Phil Salt gets four.

    The only good thing about this one for Maphaka is he's not been taken out by the ball in his follow-through.

  17. Eng 158-1

    19-year-old Kwena Maphaka is the latest to step up and try to do something, anything, to stop the torrent of runs.

    His first delivery is a sharp bouncer but the next two are whipped for four by Phil Salt.

  18. Sit back and enjoy Jos Buttler in full flow...

    This is some welcome back to international cricket for Lizaad Williams.

  20. Eng 150-1

    Salt 62, Bethell 2

    Phil Salt drags another for four to add more misery to Lizaad Williams' day. The seamer ends sprawled in the dirt too, having fallen in his delivery stride.

    Williams has conceded 46 in two overs.
