    This has been a terrific half day of cricket.

    Target 202

    How disappointing. No wickets in the over.

    There very nearly was, though. David Miller trashes the penultimate ball just past the diving Jason Roy at backward point. It would have been a magnificent catch but Roy could only tip it over the bar.

    Four more to end the Topley over. A low full toss and punched down the ground by Miller. Good counter from the left-hander.

    This is the best start England have made to an ODI - in terms of when they have taken the fourth wicket - in their history.

    Ben Hornby: Upon appraisal, South Africa will think the first four overs could have gone better.

    An utterly bonkers four overs.

    Target 202

    Ludicrous stuff at Old Trafford. South Africa are capitulating and England are in dreamland. That's a double-wicket maiden.

    Or is it? Only one of the wickets was Willey's, the other that brilliant run out from Buttler. Either way, it has been a stunning start.

    I cannot put into words how good a piece of fielding this is.

    Sensational work from behind the stumps.

    Markram run out (Buttler) 0 (SA 6-4)

    He's got him! Sensational work from Buttler!

    He came racing in from behind the stumps and it's a direct hit with an underarm throw.

    Markram is run out with facing a ball and South Africa are 6-4! 6-4!

    The England players love this. They think they have got him.

    Brilliant from Buttler!

    SA 6-3

    What on earth is going on!? That could be brilliant from Jos Buttler to run out Aiden Markram.

    Has he got him or did he just make his ground?

    There hasn't really been a bad ball. Perhaps the one bad ball actually got Topley his second wicket.

    It is a really soft dismissal. Amazing start for England.

    De Kock c Livingstone b Willey 5 (SA 6-3)

    And another one! A leading edge from Quinton de Kock and the ball just carries to Liam Livingstone, who takes the catch low down in the covers.

    It's been a dream start for England. South Africa in real trouble already.

    That is probably the worst delivery Topley has bowled.

    I always feel embarrassed celebrating when you get a wicket with a bad ball.

    Van der Dussen c Buttler b Topley 0 (SA 6-2)

    Feathered behind down the leg-side! Two in the over for Topley - a brilliant start for England.

    It wasn't the best ball he's bowled by any stretch but Rassie van der Dussen flicked at a ball heading down leg and glanced it to Jos Buttler.

    Malan c Curran b Topley 0 (SA 6-1)

    Plinked to mid-on! Janneman Malan tried to hit over the top but just didn't get hold of it at all and Sam Curran takes a straightforward catch.

    Reece Topley strikes early for England once again.

  20. SA 5-0published at 2 overs

    Target 202

    Good ball to finish from Willey.

    It's a similar ball that which De Kock nailed over mid-on but it shapes away from the left-hander late and whistles past the edge.
