OUT! TAKEN! Adil Rashid gets another wicket. Flights a fuller delivery, outside off, spins away. Temba Bavuma lofts but his one hand comes off, mistimes it just over cover where Will Jacks runs to his left and takes it. Bavuma looked to finish things off in style but ended up paying the price.

Adil Rashid to Tristan Stubbs
OUT! BOWLED! TWO IN TWO for Adil Rashid! What was Tristan Stubbs thinking out there in the middle? Rashid bowls the googly and keeps the line over off. Stubbs, out of nowhere, decides to play the reverse-sweep on that and misses out on a proper connection. The ball gets dragged back onto the stumps and Stubbs walks back for a golden duck.

Sonny Baker to Aiden Markram
SIX! That has sailed over the ropes! Back of a length and outside off, Aiden Markram stands tall and looks to open the face of the blade and lift it over point but ends up slashing it over deep third for a biggie.

Good length at the stumps, Markram goes for the lofted shot again but gets it high on the bat and lofts it well over wide mid on. Two taken.

Oh, some movement on offer for Archer! Fuller one around off and at 138 kph, this one shapes away late and Rickelton gets beaten past the outside edge as he looks to drive.

Jofra Archer to Ryan Rickelton
Crowd catch! Full and outside off, Rickelton gets low and punches it into the turf and the ball pops up straight to short covers. Ben Duckett pouches the ball and there's some excitement in the crowd.

Jofra Archer to Ryan Rickelton
NOT OUT! Oh, deary me! That was a very close call and it seems like the correct decision has been made, as there was no conclusive evidence that Joe Root had his fingers under the ball. Lovely delivery from Jofra Archer, a touch fuller and around off, shaping away. Ryan Rickelton leans on to play at it but gets an outside edge that goes low to the left of first slip. Joe Root moves to that side and tries to pouch the ball before it bounces. The third umpire is called in and after checking multiple replays, the zoomed picture shows that the ball might have just bounced before going into Root's hands.

Jofra Archer to Ryan Rickelton
An appeal for LBW now but it is turned down! Good length on leg, nipping back in. Rickelton looks to block down the line but is beaten past the inside edge and gets pinged on the pads. No review is taken and later on, Ball Tracking shows that had England reviewed, it would have been three reds and OUT as well.

Jofra Archer to share the attack. Two slips in place.

Crowd catch again? Half-an-appeal from England. Ryan Rickelton is unmoved. The slow motion shows it clearly hit the ground before going into Root's hands. The third umpire still isn't convinced and feels it hit the fingertips. Look for an ultra zoom view, ball hitting the ground before touching the fingertips. Not out it is!

Powerplay 2! Now, four fielders are allowed outside the ring till the 40th over. It doesn't feel like the match will be stretched so far though.

Sonny Baker is back into the attack, but from the other end. He's gone for 56 runs in his 4 overs so far.

DRINKS! South Africa are inching closer to the finish line and we have only seen 16 overs bowled so far in the chase. Aiden Markram has played a gem of a knock, fluid and filled with eye-catching strokes. Ryan Rickelton has been pretty quiet at the other end but he hasn't had the need to do anything as Markram has done all the heavy lifting. Debutant Sonny Baker has had a tough time with the ball and England will be hoping they can atleast pick up a few wickets, with just 29 runs left for South Africa to get.
0
Temba Bavuma is the new batter in.
0
Tristan Stubbs is in at number 4 for South Africa.
0
Dewald Brevis comes in to face the hat-trick ball. With the scores level, expect Brevis to not care for the hat-trick ball and just go for the big hit.

Right then, that is it from this contest and South Africa have the crucial 1-0 lead in this three-game ODI series. However, the Proteas already had a couple of injury concerns before the first match and it seems like Tony de Zorzi will be added to that injury list, further depleting the squad. The next game will be played on Thursday, 4th September at Lord's and will begin at 12 pm GMT. However, you can join us a lot sooner for the build-up as well. For now, you can switch tabs and join our coverage of the UAE Tri-Series, where Afghanistan and Pakistan are battling it out in Match 4 of the series. Cheers!

Sonny Baker to Aiden Markram
Length ball on leg, a bit of movement in the air and Markram fails to flick it away, wearing it on the pads. Baker concedes 14 runs in his first over in ODI cricket, not the start he would have hoped for.
