5:43pm Fifth highest ODI total for England and for most part of the innings, it seemed as if they'd near or cross 400! Good comeback towards the end by South Africa, getting rid of the middle-order rather quickly. But, it was once again set up by Lamb and Beaumont's 149-run opening stand. The duo of Ismail and Kapp couldn't find their lines early after South Africa surprisingly opted to bowl in hot conditions. Dunkley and Knight marked their attendance with half-centuries before Wyatt's cameo gave a boost to England towards the end. Three hundred and thirty seven proved too much for South Africa earlier in the series and this should be beyond them already. We shall find if that indeed is the case as Miller will be back with the chase in half an hour.
