  1. It's Chris Woakes with ball in hand. Here we go...

  2. Thanks very much, Stephan. Hashim Amla and Quinton de Kock are walking out to the middle and the chase is about to begin. Should be fun...

  3. That was the first half, this is the second. Alan Jewell will talk you through the first half of South Africa's chase...

  4. Leaving Moeen to finish with a flourish...

  5. ...but couldn't make it through to the end

  6. Morgan reached three figures in style...

  7. With the help of Moeen Ali...

  8. Morgan, though, continued...

  9. But two wickets for eight runs had England teetering...

    Buttler caught by Miller off Morris

  10. England looked primed to press on when IPL pair Eoin Morgan and Ben Stokes were at the crease. Their stand of 68 came at better than a run a ball...

    Eoin Morgan hits a six off Phehlukwayo

  11. England were invited to bat on a belting deck, but their early progress was checked by some iffy strokeplay...

  12. I reckon that total is about par. Even if England have got a few more than par, South Africa have the batting to chase it. It should be a good second half. Stay tuned to TMS during the interval, you can hear from Joe Root and England's women looking ahead to the World Cup. If you stick around here, I'll treat you to a few highlights...

    South Africa are 20 minutes behind time. That could cause problems in the Champions Trophy. You can't get behind time.

  14. How's stat?!

    Moeen finished on 77 from 51 balls with five boundaries and five sixes. It's his seventh score of 50 or more for England.

  15. Jonathan Agnew
    BBC Test Match Special

    What a way to finish an innings! That is a good score in anybody's book.

  16. 6 runs

    Eng 339-6

    Finished with a six! Moeen Ali picks it up over square leg and into the crowd. Moeen finishes with 77 from 51 balls. South Africa will need 340 to win.

  17. Eng 333-6

    Another yorker. Moeen wants two, but Woakes sends him back. Last ball coming up...

  18. Eng 332-6

    Could have been a run out! Direct hit misses, overthrow taken! Two when the ball didn't leave the square.

  19. Eng 330-6

    Slower bouncer. Only a single to short fine leg.

  20. Eng 329-6

    Leggy to Moeen. Picked up for a couple behind square.
