    That's England's second-highest T20 score.

    England have racked them up in Bristol. That was fun!

    South Africa have finally managed to cling on to one.

    But what a knock that is from Jonny Bairstow. His glorious summer continues.

    Bairstow c Rossouw b Ngidi 90 (Eng 233-6)

    They've held onto one! Not to be for Jonny Bairstow. He holes out in the deep and Lungi Ngidi has five.

    Bairstow stops on the way off and waves his bat to the crowd. He's the most popular man in the country right now.

  5. dropped catch

    Curran dropped on 0published at 19.4 overs

    It's harsh call this a drop. It's parried over the par like a goalkeeper from Rabada.

    It stopped four. Bairstow on strike on 90...

  6. Eng 232-5published at 20:08 British Summer Time 27 July 2022

    Here's Sam Curran. Give Jonny the strike, Sam...

    Three balls to go.

    Lungi Ngidi is finishing well here and that is so important for South Africa as it can give them a bit of momentum for their chase.

  8. wicket

    Livingstone c De Kock b Ngidi 5 (Eng 232-5)

    Gone! Liam Livingstone nicks Ngidi behind. He now has four.

    Bairstow could get stranded in the 90s here.

  9. Eng 232-4published at 19.2 overs

    Down the leg side again from Ngidi. Livingstone wristly flicks it down to fine leg for four.

    South Africa definitely clutching at straws there.

  11. Not outpublished at 20:06 British Summer Time 27 July 2022

    It has pitched outside leg and is missing too.

  12. Postpublished at 20:05 British Summer Time 27 July 2022

    Bairstow hasn't hit it but it's surely going down leg...

  13. South Africa reviewpublished at 20:05 British Summer Time 27 July 2022

    Oh! South Africa have reviewed this for lbw.

    It's surely not out...

  14. Eng 228-4published at 19.1 overs

    Ngidi starts with a good, slower yorker. One leg-bye.

  15. Eng 227-4published at 19 overs

    Bairstow 90, Livingstone 1

    Jonny Bairstow moves to 90 with a single, keeping the strike in the process.

    Can he get to 100 in the final over?

  16. Postpublished at 20:03 British Summer Time 27 July 2022

    You shouldn't drop Jonny Bairstow once - never mind four times.

    That is humongous. Just too good.

    Make that 11 short of a hundred! Bairstow puts away another like he's swiping a pesky fly.
