    39.5
    W
    Stokes to Tahir
    edged, gone, Stokes seals it! A thick nick to slip, Joe Root puts the cap on an outstanding fielding display, reaching to his right to intercept, and England wrap it up with 10.1 overs to spare!
    39.4
    W
    Stokes to Rabada
    short again, pulled again, held at deep midwicket again! It's Plunkett this time, stooping forward to cling on in both mitts. That was a solid connection, but the man was well placed and England's fielding has been the most composed aspect of their play today.
    39.3
    4
    Stokes to Rabada
    on the hip, pings past the sprawling Buttler. South Africa still scrapping for the scraps...
    39.2
    0
    Stokes to Rabada
    short, slapped, inches short of midwicket!
    39.1
    4
    Stokes to Rabada
    canny deflection, opening the face outside off, and a thick edge down through third man
    38.6
    0
    Plunkett to Ngidi
    poked into the covers, a sprawling stop and a harum-scarum stretch for the crease
    38.5
    0
    Plunkett to Ngidi
    beauty! A cross-seamer, zipping over the bails via a thin deflection on the back leg
    38.4
    6
    Plunkett to Ngidi
    crikey, there's one for the memory banks! A slower-ball from Plunkett, picked like the ripest of cherries, and plopped into the stands with a sublime followthrough for a fine crowd catch at long-on!
    38.3
    0
    Plunkett to Ngidi
    width outside off, a back-footed slap at thin air
    38.2
    0
    Plunkett to Ngidi
    pushed into the covers but straight at the man
    38.1
    W
    Plunkett to Amla
    banged in short, a waft off the eyebrows, it's the slower-ball bouncer, and Amla walks! Plunkett bags his second, and South Africa's wafer-thin hopes are now officially ended
    37.6
    1
    Stokes to Amla
    easy single to the off-side, the crowd are in sing-song mood now ... "Moeen Ali" is the object of their chants for now
    37.5
    1
    Stokes to Rabada
    nudged into the covers
    37.4
    0
    Stokes to Rabada
    rolls the fingers on a full-length delivery, slides down the leg side
    37.3
    0
    Stokes to Rabada
    middle-and-leg line, tapped back to the bowler in his followthrough
    37.2
    4
    Stokes to Rabada
    banged in short, pulled through the leg side and Morgan can't cling on! He stretched high to his left, but did he fully commit? I suspect he may have had his hurty finger in mind there ... discretion is better part of valour at this stage of the match and tournament
    37.1
    1
    Stokes to Amla
    tapped into the covers
    36.6
    0
    Plunkett to Rabada
    inside-edged, a flat-footed drive into the covers
    36.5
    1
    Plunkett to Amla
    nurdled out to midwicket
    36.4
    1
    Plunkett to Rabada
    short, leg-sided, pulled but without much intent, gathered at backward square
