That's England's second-highest T20 score.
One run comes from the final ball.
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.
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...
Here's Sam Curran. Give Jonny the strike, Sam...
Three balls to go.
Chris Woakes
England all-rounder on BBC Two
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.
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.
Down the leg side again from Ngidi. Livingstone wristly flicks it down to fine leg for four.

South Africa definitely clutching at straws there.
It has pitched outside leg and is missing too.
Bairstow hasn't hit it but it's surely going down leg...
Oh! South Africa have reviewed this for lbw.
It's surely not out...
Ngidi starts with a good, slower yorker. One leg-bye.
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?
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.
Don't forget you can watch this carnage by clicking play above - or by putting on BBC Two.
Bairstow is 17 short of a hundred.
Here's Kagiso Rabada...
