    Oh wait! The umpires are checking if Rashid was outside the circle when the ball was bowled.

    Yet more drama.

    TOM CURRAN HAS DONE IT!

    He goes for a slower ball and Fortuin flicks it to short fine leg.

    Bjorn Fortuin has never faced a ball in international cricket before.

    He needs to score three runs from one ball to win.

    Here we go.

    South Africa need three off the final ball to win. Two for a super over. It's an exact copy of what England needed on the last ball on Wednesday.

    New batsman Bjorn Fortuin will be on strike.

    UMPIRE'S CALL. IT'S OUT!

    I think he's missed it. I don't think there's an edge. Get on to ball-tracking.

    There's a spike on UltraEdge but is that not the ball hitting the ground?

    This might be outside the line you know. It's a great yorker.

    It's not a no-ball.

    GIVEN LBW!

    I think Pretorius forgot he could review. Quinton de Kock has told him to from the dressing room.

    Huge celebrations as the decision is shown on the big screen. England need a dot ball.

    South Africa need three from two balls. England needed that in the last game and messed it up.

    Pretorius is in by a frame or two so that's two runs added to the total. It was a great dive.

    South Africa need three from two balls.

    Is the bat down?

  15. Umpire reviewpublished at 19.4 overs

    South Africa charge back for two. Ben Stokes with the throw. I think Dwaine Pretorius has made it but we're going to check.

    What have you got Tom Curran?

  17. SA 200-5published at 19.3 overs

    Dwaine Pretorius is winning this for South Africa! Wide from Curran but he misses the length. It's smoked for four and the party is back on at Kingsmead.

    Five from three needed.

    Smashed into the stands by Dwaine Pretorius! The hosts favourites now?

    Nine from four needed.

    DOT BALL.

    Brilliant slower ball from Curran.

    15 from five needed.

    Curran looks focused.

    South Africa need 15 from six balls to win.
