    Time to call up Alex Hales!

    Target 190

    Another good over for South Africa. A driven two only adds to that boundary.

    South Africa's fielding has been very good so far. They are determined to fight for their World Cup lives.

    The ball is definitely turning a bit more now.

    Target 190

    Vintage Moeen Ali. He loves facing left-arm spin.

    He comes down the track and meets Tabraiz Shamsi's full toss and whips it away to the square-leg boundary.

    Here's how Jos Buttler was out...

    Target 190

    Really good from Aiden Markram, just three singles from his first over.

    With two left handers in Temba Bavuma has called for the off spin of Aiden Markram.

    Target 190

    Eeeesh! Dawid Malan misses with an attempted cut. That wasn't far from the edge.

    England need to make at least 87 to be assured of a semi-final spot, don't forget. South Africa need to restrict England to 131 or less to join them and knock out Australia.

    Tabraiz Shamsi is very clever. As a wrist spinner he has all the tricks but it is knowing when to use them.

    Are we beginning to see a bit of an opening?

  10. Postpublished at 16:34 Greenwich Mean Time 6 November 2021

    Dawid Malan is the new batter.

    Win predictor is currently saying 69-31 in South Africa's favour.

    Bairstow lbw b Shamsi 1 (Eng 59-2)

    Crashing into leg stump!

    Jonny Bairstow went deep in his crease, looking to work into the leg side, but the ball hurries through on him and cannons into the pad.

    England are in a little bit of danger with Jason Roy extremely unlikely to bat again.

    There's no bat.

    Target 190

    Jonny Bairstow gets off the mark straight away with a nudge into the leg side.

    The powerplay ends with two dot balls. England have made a very good start though.

    Heartbreaking for Roy, but this could see England getting more out of Bairstow by moving him up to open.

    Jonny Bairstow, who could find himself opening in the semi-finals, is the new batter.

    Jos Buttler falls just short of a de facto double century.

    He has scored 198 runs from 114 balls since his dismissal against Bangladesh.
