Former England spinner on BBC TwoJonny Bairstow has just bullied this South Africa attack, especially the spinners.

Former England bowler on BBC TwoThe summer of Bairstow continues. The crowd are loving it.

England bowler on BBC TwoGreat catch in the crowd. South Africa need someone like him at the minute.

Caught in the crowd! Another six to Moeen.

Here's another wide, this time from seamer Phehlukwayo. Keeper Quinton de Kock spills it for a bye too.
Not good.

England bowler on BBC TwoSo predicable for Shamsi. It is too short, not much spin and Jonny Bairstow is just ready for it.
Eng 134-3published at 14 overs
Tabraiz Shamsi will not want to return to Bristol any time soon.
He lobs down another track-tracker which Bairstow needs little invitation to pump for six.
14 from the over including two wides.
Eng 125-3published at 13.3 overs
Bairstow chews furiously on his gum as he first leaves the ball for a wide and secondly jogs back for a second after a misfield.
South Africa have done some very good things but also thrown in some average stuff too.

England bowler on BBC TwoThis could be a key part of the game here. Moeen Ali can really go after spin and Tabraiz Shamsi has not had the best of games so far.

Left-arm wrist spinner Tabraiz Shamsi returns looking to improve his figures which currently stand at 0-35 from two.
Eng 120-3published at 13 overs
There are those fluid hands... Moeen exquisitely pulls the ball from in front of his eyes for his first boundary. Eight from the over.

Colin Ingram
Former South Africa batter on BBC TwoAs a fellow left-hander I love watching Moeen Ali bat. He has such fluid hands, finds the gaps and has the power if he needs to go long.
Eng 113-3published at 12.1 overs
England have sent Moeen Ali out at number five, on the ground he scored his last hundred for England.
A single to Bairstow brings him onto strike.

England bowler on BBC TwoAs a bowler there is nothing better than getting your own back after being hit for a big six.

Malan c De Kock b Phehlukwayo 43 (Eng 112-3)
But Malan is out now! England's number three tries to force seamer Andile Phehlukwayo off the back foot but ends up getting a thick edge through to wicketkeeper De Kock.
Malan departs for a breezy 43 from 23 balls.
Eng 112-2published at 11.5 overs
That's four too - creamed over extra cover by Malan.
