    If South Africa get through, watch them get 200 against England.

  2. SA 62-0

    Jahanara returns to the attack for Bangladesh. Her first two deliveries go for two singles. Will there be another boundary in this over, or will South Africa retreat back into their shell?

  3. SA 60-0

    Brits 25, Wolvaardt 34

    Nine runs from Fahima's latest over. South Africa need another 54 from the last 48 balls.

    That is a lovely shot. A few more of those and they'll be feeling confident.

  5. Henry Moeran
    BBC Test Match Special commentator

    All South Africa need to do is find a boundary an over and this will be done in no time.

  6. SA 57-0

    Target 114

    Here we go. You wait for ages for boundaries....

    Laura Wolvaardt moves to 32 by striking Fahima Khatun down the ground for four.

    We're halfway there.

  7. SA 51-0

    Eight runs from Marufa's latest over. Just what the doctor ordered for South Africa.

  8. Alex Hartley
    Former England bowler on BBC Test Match Special

    That is the first time she's tried to play an aggressive shot.

    Well, apart from when she should have been stumped and the keeper missed the stumps.

  9. Henry Moeran
    BBC Test Match Special commentator

    Tazmin Brits will feel better about things now.

  10. SA 51-0

    The fifty comes up for South Africa in the 11th over with just the third boundary of the innings.

    Tazmin Brits comes down the ground and flashes one through the leg side for four. Finally.

    No, it's horrific. It's minging cricket.

  12. Alex Hartley
    Former England bowler on BBC Test Match Special

    It goes back to England wanting to play entertaining cricket. This is not entertaining cricket.

  13. SA 44-0

    Marufa returns to the attack. She's got figures of 0-4 after two overs.

    The 17-year-old's next ball goes for a single to the leg side.

  14. Alex Hartley
    Former England bowler on BBC Test Match Special

    I don't get what South Africa are doing. Surely you are better trying to win the game in the powerplay, even if you lose a couple of wickets.

  15. Henry Moeran
    BBC Test Match Special commentator

    Being 43 without loss is the strange part.

  16. What's the chat at drinks then? Hit a boundary maybe?

  17. Alex Hartley
    Former England bowler on BBC Test Match Special

    England were absolutely outstanding in their batting innings, but Pakistan, Bangladesh and South Africa have been average in their batting innings.

    Are England just so much better?

  18. This is the same pitch England scored 213 runs on earlier today.

  19. Daniel Norcross
    BBC Test Match Special

    South Africa should still win but they don't want to taking this to the last over. That will make it nerve-wracking and it really shouldn't be.

  20. SA 43-0

    Weird innit?

    We're at the halfway stage, with no wickets lost South Africa should be up to 60 or even 70 by now.

    The worm shows South Africa are two runs ahead of Bangladesh. South Africa are 43 for 0 after 10 overs. At the same stage Bangladesh were 41 for 2.BBC Sport
