That was fortunate for Wyatt, she tried to drop the ball into the leg-side but it dropped perilously close to her leg stump.

Just a single from Kapp's fourth, who is giving very little away. She causes a little discomfort for Danni Wyatt, who attempts a drop-and-run into the midwicket region but the ball just plops beside her stumps.

Here's how South Africa took their one wicket so far this morning, that of Tammy Beaumont.

South Africa have a clear plan to Danni Wyatt, knowing she is susceptible to playing with hard hands outside off stump and slicing the ball to point.
A couple of cut shots find the fielder, before Wyatt wins the battle eventually with a four - although each shot is slightly aerial, so she needs to be careful.

A quiet start from Heather Knight, with just a single from 11 balls so far, as she seems content to just settle in against Marizanne Kapp.

England spinner on BBC Test Match SpecialEngland really, really need these two to stick around for another 10 overs. They've lost an early wicket, now can they rebuild?

A probing over from Shabnim Ismail. It doesn't bring a wicket, but she continues to test the England pair's defences.
If South Africa can grab another wicket before the powerplay, they will be delighted with this start.

A pumped up Marizanne Kapp is something to behold. The master of mind games, she immediately brings in another slip as Heather Knight comes to the crease.

Beaumont c Chetty b Kapp 7 (Eng 10-1)
It may not be the lbw but Kapp gets the breakthrough! Beaumont caught behind for a single-figure score and England's opening partnership struggles continue.
Just a hint of movement away from Beaumont combined with Kapp's bounce extracts the outside edge - it's a tame dismissal. She didn't have to play at it.
Marizanne Kapp is pumped.

South Africa have done their research on Tammy Beaumont's vulnerability to an early lbw.
She's pinned on the front pad playing across the line of a straight one once again. It's given not out, but positive signs for South Africa that their plan is working.
Can they hold their nerve enough, and stay patient, to make it count?

Eng 9-0published at 2 overs
Marizanne Kapp, star of South Africa's group stage win against England, takes the second over.
She gets some awkward bounce to surprise Beaumont and slice the top of the bat, but the ball just flies over slip for a single.
A couple of loose shots from Wyatt in that over, which will encourage South Africa.
