Fenners: Buttler as opener clearly doesn't work. He's a middle order finisher. There aren't many T20s until the World Cup - can we bin this experiment now please?

I like it, James.
Jason Roy drives hard and wristily. He gets a thick edge but there is no slip. Four runs down to third man.

Roy 16, Bairstow 6
Bairstow chips over mid-off for four to end the over and ease the pressure a little. South Africa have still made a good start.

That's a chance! Jonny Bairstow has drilled one back at Bjorn Fortuin in the air. It went quickly but was at a comfortable height. I think he'll have expected to take it.

The sightscreen has been fixed. We're ready to go again. Jonny Bairstow is on strike.

Excellent knowledge. I get the impression you may have played this game before, Ian. Either that or you're a Cambridge University super fan.

Image source, ReutersBefore today, Buttler averaged 46.50 opening and 26.56 elsewhere in the order in T20Is.
De Kock is turning back to his spinner Fortuin. There's a delay because the advertising board behind the bowler is stuck and has not turned black.

Jonathan France: Buttler absolutely wasted opening the batting. Roy & Bairstow all day for me. The line up is so flexible that Buttler can come in at any point depending on the situation.

Roy 15, Bairstow 1
Jonny Bairstow gets under way by driving his first ball for one into the deep but it's still just two runs and a wicket from Lungi Ngidi's over. That's a fine start for the South Africa quick.

Buttler c De Kock b Ngidi 2 (Eng 17-1)
Lungi Ngidi strikes again! Jos Buttler had been starved of the strike and he tries to slash a length delivery but gets a thick edge through to the keeper.
An important early wicket for the hosts.

Lungi Ngidi, who won the first T20 at the death for South Africa, is on for an early bowl. He starts with two dots.

Roy 14, Buttler 2
He may have been hit for a boundary but that was a decent over from Beuran Hendricks. Roy and Buttler only managed to sprint singles off the other deliveries.
It's another great turnout for this game. Kingsmead is filling up nicely.
