| Jamie Smith | 62 | 48 | 9 | 1 | 129.16 |
|
16.2 OUT! TAKEN! Corbin Bosch takes a deep breath as he takes the catch. Keshav Maharaj induces a mishit. Loops it up, on a good length and a bit on leg, Smith comes down the track to go big but miscues it to long on where Corbin Bosch gets underneath, on his knee holds onto it. Finally, South Africa get rid of Jamie Smith. 117/2

| Ben Duckett | 31 | 33 | 6 | 0 | 93.93 |
|
8.3 OUT! IN THE AIR AND TAKEN! Extra bounce does the trick for Corbin Bosch and Ben Duckett has to depart after a decent start. This is dug in short and a bit quicker as well, angled across off and comes in around helmet height. Duckett leans back to pull but gets a top edge that goes towards mid-wicket. Aiden Markram turns around and takes a few steps forward to take a simple catch and South Africa finally have their first breakthrough. 59/1

| Joe Root | 100 | 96 | 6 | 0 | 104.16 |
|
46.5 OUT! GONE! 100 and out! Joe Root goes back to a standing ovation! Corbin Bosch bowls from around the wicket, very full and outside off, angled across. Joe Root tries to play with an angled bat, hits it uppishly but to point where the substitute fielder Kwena Maphaka leaps and takes it. End of an incredible innings from Joe Root. Lovely stuff seen here. One young gentleman's day has been made as Joe Root gives away his gloves to him. 371/5

| Jacob Bethell | 110 | 82 | 13 | 3 | 134.14 |
|
40.2 OUT! STUMPED! Finally, South Africa break this mammoth stand and Jacob Bethell has to walk back after a stellar knock. Bethell is a bit early to advance down the pitch and Keshav Maharaj smartly floats it wide outside the off stump. Bethell has to really reach for it but fails to lay a bat on it and Ryan Rickelton is quick to dislodge the bails. Bethell walks back after scoring 110 (82) and England are now 299/3 after 40.1 overs. 299/3

| Harry Brook C | 3 | 2 | 0 | 0 | 150 |
|
40.4 OUT! HARRY BROOK IS RUN OUT! A strange passage of play, but in the end, Harry Brook has to depart. Keshav Maharaj serves a low full toss, drifting it into the pads. Brook sits down to sweep but gets a top edge that lands safely and just over square leg. The batters pick up a single but push for a late second run. Codi Yusuf charges in from the deep and fires in a solid throw towards the keeper. Ryan Rickelton whips off the bails in a flash and replays show that Brook was a fair few inches short of his ground. Double whammy for the Proteas! 302/4

4.4 OUT! GONE! Jos Buttler takes his third catch! This is a tailor-made pitch for Jofra Archer!

| Tristan Stubbs | 10 | 22 | 1 | 0 | 45.45 |

8.5 OUT! TAKEN! Will Jacks holds onto it this time. Unlike Jamie Smith, who was dropped and went onto score a fifty! Tristan Stubbs just add a solitary run after getting a lifeline. Jofra Archer drags his length further back and cramps the batter as he bowls around off. Tristan Stubbs gets tall to defend with an angled bat but edges it to second slip where Will Jacks takes it. 18/5

| Dewald Brevis | 6 | 12 | 0 | 1 | 50 |
|
9.5 OUT! TAKEN! South Africa lose their sixth wicket inside the first Powerplay! This is just brilliant stuff from England and it's not looking good for South Africa! Brydon Carse deserves this wicket. Has been overshadowed by Jofra Archer bowling a top spell but he has supported him well too. Short in length and outside off. Dewald Brevis pokes and edges it to third slip, where Jamie Overton bends and holds onto it. 24/6

| Corbin Bosch | 20 | 32 | 3 | 0 | 62.50 |
|
20.5 OUT! CAUGHT! And with Bavuma not coming to bat, this will be it for South Africa! The Proteas suffer their largest defeat in ODI history by 342 runs. Adil Rashid drops it fuller and around middle, Bosch sits down and decides to play the reverse sweep, but fails to keep it down and lobs it straight to Brydon Carse at backward point. This has been a pure bowling masterclass from England, and they end the ODI series with a thumping win. 72/9

| Keshav Maharaj | 17 | 17 | 2 | 1 | 100 |
|
14.2 OUT! EDGED AND GONE! Adil Rashid makes an instant impact and sends Keshav Maharaj packing. Flighted delivery, drifting into the pads and it is the leg break that turns as well. Maharaj is eager to skip down the pitch and looks to heave across the line but only manages to get an outside edge straight to first slip. Joe Root takes a simple catch and South Africa are no 7 down for 49. 49/7

| Codi Yusuf | 5 | 11 | 1 | 0 | 45.45 |
|
17 OUT! TIMBER! A lovely piece of bowling yet again from Adil Rashid and he picks up his second wicket now. Rashid tosses this one up, fuller and gets it top dip around off and middle. Codi Yusuf lunges forward to block it down the line but the googly turns in and goes through the gate to crash into the top of off stump.. 57/8
