    Liam Livingstone had a mad moment - there was no communication. He just went for it.

    WICKET

    Livingstone run out 16 (Eng 166-6)

    What on earth was that?! Liam Livingstone's had a moment of real horror there. A comfortable single, Dawson never signalled for the second run but Livingstone had committed. He was stranded at the wrong end as the bails came off.

  3. Eng 166-5

    Another good, full delivery from Andile Phehlukwayo and again, Liam Dawson can only crack it in the direction of a fielder.

  4. Ebony Rainford-Brent
    Ex-England batter on BBC Test Match Special

    Everything is moving back into South Africa's favour now. It's exciting stuff.

  5. Eng 165-5

    Liam Livingstone is on strike. AB De Villiers has brought his field up and Livingstone can't beat it, smashing a slower ball up to cover.

  6. Eng 164-5

    Target 175

    Andile Phehlukwayo will bowl the final over, and he twirls down a yorker that Liam Dawson cracks away for a single.

  7. Charles Dagnall
    BBC Test Match Special

    Liam Livingstone... what have you got?

  8. Eng 163-5

    Liam Dawson is the new man and he clubs away a single to get off strike. England need 12 from the final over to win!

  9. Ebony Rainford-Brent
    Ex-England batter on BBC Test Match Special

    This is what we wanted to see - the youngsters are being tested now. They are having to handle the pressure. There's a contest on. Who will hold their nerve?

  10. wicket

    WICKET

    Morgan c De Villiers b Paterson 6 (Eng 162-5)

    Gone! AB de Villiers has caught a ball that he didn't see coming! Morgan slapped a full delivery, trying to go over the field, and AB lost it as it came flying towards him. He stuck his hands out almost on instinct and ended up catching it snugly. I didn't see this coming a few overs ago.

  11. Eng 162-4

    There's four of them! It's just a touch wide from Dane Paterson and Morgan clatters it through the covers for four.

  12. ouch!

    Eng 158-4

    That's an ouch for the bat, rather than a player - Dane Paterson has just destroyed Liam Livingstone's bat with a fine yorker. The ball came fizzing down and it's snapped the bottom of the bat off! England manage to snaffle a single though as the fresh bats come out. 17 from 9 balls needed.

  13. Eng 157-4

    Liam Livingstone lines up a good length delivery from Dane Paterson, has a big ol' slog at it, and misses completely. That's a wide though from the bowler, trying to keep Livingstone under pressure. And he's been wided again by Michael Gough! Paterson looks thrilled while AB De Villiers has a massive grin on his face. That's not a wide.

  14. England need 21 runs from the final 12 deliveries. It's Eoin Morgan and Liam Livingstone at the crease. You'd still have England as the favourites but South Africa have stepped it up here...

  15. Charles Dagnall
    BBC Test Match Special

    The game has become a lot closer than when Roy and Bairstow were at the crease and England were cruising.

  16. Eng 154-4

    Target 175

    Eoin Morgan is at the crease, but he has to stand at the other end and watch as Liam Livingstone misses an attempted scoop shot. That is an awful looking thing when it goes wrong, and he wasn't far off edging that to the keeper.

  17. Ebony Rainford-Brent
    Ex-England batter on BBC Test Match Special

    South Africa have hustled Liam Livingstone with some good pace and fielding. We might be set for an exciting finish.

  18. wicket

    WICKET

    Buttler b Phehlukwayo 10 (Eng 153-4)

    That is a brilliant yorker from Andile Phehlukwayo! There's an audible groan as Buttler departs, the bails dislodged by a superb bit of bowling from the South Africa seamer. What a delivery.

  19. Eng 153-3

    Andile Phehlukwayo is back, and his first delivery gets swatted away by Liam Livingstone for four! The same man then clobbers a straight drive beyond Phehlukwayo and Farhaan Behardien tidies up.

    Daniel Potter‏: Sadly it's out - Roy has moved across the wicket to cover the stumps, obstructing the route for a run-out. Ball doesn't need to hit.

    Sam Taylor: That's an absolute shocker of a decision. Like with Stokes v Australia. in slow motion looks intentional. No way at full speed.
