  1. Eng 89-6 (Wiese 4-0-19-1)published at 14 overs

    A boundary. At last. The first since the eighth over. Jordan claims it off Wiese with a top-edge. It is the only notable blow of an over that completes a superb spell from Wiese.

    Fenners: Can't believe we make Tahir look so good! He's an average county player at best! 

    Birding Vicar: England's inability to deal with Imran Tahir not boding well for World T20, South Africa in control.

    Richard Lancaster: Can we simply try and bat our allotted overs, we might become competitive again.

    Fondue lite: South Africa might just send out De Villiers by himself to chase this.

  3. Eng 81-6published at 13 overs

    Jos Buttler remains. As long as that is the case, England retain hope of a competitive score. But they are in big trouble.

    "I have to say Moeen Ali will be disappointed with that. He has been lazy with the shot, he didn’t really commit, hit it with loose hands and a solid catch.

    "England really are just folding and on a wicket like this it is not good news at all."

    "Tahir is wreaking havoc."

  6. Eng 81-6published at 12.4 overs

    Hat-trick ball. Oh, he is so close with a ball that nips right through Chris Jordan. He may even have nicked it. In that case, AB De Villiers has dropped a clanger. Tahir bounces down the track with his head in his hands. He has swung this game firmly in SA's favour.

    Tahir strikes again. Two in two. He is on a hat-trick. Moeen Ali walks in and walks straight back again after slapping one to the diving Faf du Plessis at short mid-off.

    "Tahir is off again like a sprinter who has just won the 100m Olympic final."

    Morgan c Wiese b Tahir 10 (Eng 81-5)

    Pressure. England have barely scored a meaningful run in the last few overs and this tells as Morgan miscues a ball from the returning Tahir to Wiese at backward point.

    England are walking through treacle at the moment. Wiese is varying his length and speed to great effect while keeping a top of off line. He has now bowled three overs for just 11. Brilliant T20 bowling.

  13. Eng 78-4 (Morgan 9, Buttler 5)published at 11 overs

    Imran Tahir has done his bit. He is replaced by Chris Morris, who brings the England run-rate down again with an over that goes for just four.

    "Looking at the halfway point England, runs wise, will feel they have lost momentum especially after that electric start. A bit of work to do now, they want to make sure, on this wicket, they get close to 180."

    Fondue lite: Memo to England's batsmen: it's a 20 over, not a 20 ball, match.

    Chris Mitchell: Yet more brain dead cricket from England's top order....!! Do we never learn anything?!?

  17. Eng 74-4 (Run-rate 7.40)published at 10 overs

    Wiese is doing a sterling job for SA here. He gets through another cheap over, which goes for just four runs. England still have plenty of batting but they need to recapture some momentum.

    Sean Perry: Really poor knock from Root. Love him but not sure his T20 credentials stand up. Now if only we had someone made for T20 @KP24

    Ian Funnell: Thought Vince was unlucky to miss out before game. Never been sure of Root in t20 as always takes a few balls to get going. 

    Chris Gunn: Does anyone know why Vince isn't in the England team?

    "England are slightly losing their way here, they like batting first as well."

  20. Eng 70-4published at 9 overs

    South Africa have done really well here. Tahir is at the centre of it. He has gone for runs but has taken two wickets. Jos Buttler is in. England could really do with something spectacular from him now.
