Taylor c de Kock b Rabada 0 (Eng 167-4)
Image source, AFPDistastrous for England, as James Taylor loosely edges behind to the first ball after tea. They check for the no-ball - and it's close - but Taylor isn't getting a reprieve this time and Kagiso Rabada is on a hat-trick.
He took a hat-trick on his ODI debut...

Tim Nutting: So Alex Hales the dasher and Nick Compton the blocker had the exact same strike rate!

We'll be getting under way in Cape Town shortly. James Taylor will be the man striding out alongside Joe Root after the loss of Nick Compton before tea.

Some interesting chat on Sky Sports during the tea break. They say James Anderson was swinging the ball in practice yesterday, which South Africa's much taller bowlers have so far failed to do. Promising?

Ex-England captain on BBC Test Match Special"It's a great shame that South Africa have lost a couple of players to injury. It would have been great if you'd had Steyn, Morkel, Philander versus Finn, Broad and Anderson. That's three quality seamers on either side."

Ant Man: Compton and Bairstow have a knack of looking good, getting themselves in and throwing it all away. What a waste.

And with that, the players will take tea. Compton trudges off, Root and the South Africans follow him - and it's time for a breather all round.

Compton c Bavuma b Rabada 45 (Eng 167-3)
Image source, AFPNot for the first time today, I spoke too soon. Short from Rabada, Compton rocks back and pulls powerfully - but straight to Temba Bavuma low at mid-wicket. A sucker punch for England.
