- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR27.4 Loose from Beaumont as she chips to mid-off! Ismail pouches the opportunity, looking to go over the top but can't get hold of it 147/221.2 disaster for Lamb! Soft dismissal, just as she was accelerating. Loopy full toss, down the leg side. Lamb sweeps but is through the shot too early, and top-edges straight to short fine leg on the edge of the ring. Freebie for Tryon, England lose their first! 127/149.6 low full toss, on the pads, and Dunkley holes out to the final ball of the innings! Right idea, but straight at the fielder. So ends a mighty maiden knock 337/444.4 bowled round her legs! Sciver gets herself out as much as anything else, aiming over fine leg, and attempting to improvise against the full straight delivery. Another masterful knock while it lasted 289/347.6 paddled to the leg side, and Knight picks out short backward square! A short stay for the skipper 318/4Extras25 (b 8, lb 4, nb 2, w 11)TOTAL337/5 (50 Overs, RR: 6.74)Fall of wickets: 1-127 (Emma Lamb, 21.2 ov), 2-147 (Tammy Beaumont, 27.4 ov), 3-289 (Nat Sciver-Brunt, 44.4 ov), 4-318 (Heather Knight, 47.6 ov), 5-337 (Sophia Dunkley, 49.6 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR16.3 nailed on the pad, and up goes the finger! It was leg-sided, but very full, and Goodall reviews. Turned into the pad, was it doing too much? No bat involved. Clipping leg, the decision stands 92/214.2 chipped straight to Wong at mid-on! Wolvaardt had looked a million dollars but this is a poor shot. She looked to clear the infield, skipping down and looking to clear mid-on, but picked out the fielder for a simple catch 87/119.4 flogged in the air, and Bell swallows it! Driven without conviction, from round the wicket, good pace, never got to the pitch, and lobbed to mid-on 107/320.6 attempted sweep, top-edged to square leg! And now, South Africa's innings is properly on skid row. Four quick wickets in the last seven overs, and that 337 is looking distant 111/440.1 panned back at the bowler, and that's nine down! Kapp's excellent effort ends a touch tamely, aiming through mid-on and sliced back to the bowler at head height. This is unlikely to go the distance now... 223/923.6 bounced out! Tryon did not like Wong's extra pace, she climbed into another unsteady pull, weight falling back and the cross-seamer skids into her top-edge and through to Jones' gloves! England are starting to turn the screw now 132/525.4 fine catch in the covers! Wong bangs in another short ball, de Klerk rocks back for a swat in front of square, Sciver stretches and times her take to perfection at short cover. Six down and sinking fast 138/632.2 down on one knee, hoicked through the line, a big top-edge and Wong swallows the catch at mid-on! The end is surely nigh now... 169/735.4 maiden ODI wicket for Bell! Round the wicket, tempting the drive, Ismail throws the bat through the line, and cloths a simple catch to mid-off 186/840.6 hacked off-balance out to cover! Dean steadies herself to swallow the lobbed chance, and England seal the ODIs 2-0 223/9Extras11 (lb 3, nb 2, w 6)TOTAL223 all out (41 Overs, RR: 5.43)Fall of wickets: 1-87 (Laura Wolvaardt, 14.2 ov), 2-92 (Andrie Steyn, 16.3 ov), 3-107 (Lara Goodall, 19.4 ov), 4-111 (Sune Luus, 20.6 ov), 5-132 (Chloe Tryon, 23.6 ov), 6-138 (Nadine de Klerk, 25.4 ov), 7-169 (Trisha Chetty, 32.2 ov), 8-186 (Shabnim Ismail, 35.4 ov), 9-223 (Marizanne Kapp, 40.1 ov), 10-223 (Nonkululeko Mlaba, 40.6 ov)
