- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR33.6 Given out LBW, Beaumont walks It was around the good length area, came back in with the angle and beat the full face of the bat Tammy had presented and hit the bat leg around off-stump. Height looked okay, the impact may have been an issue but the batting pair decided against the review 149/41.6 Latched on at point on the third trial It was full outside off, Wyatt slashes at it but in the air towards the fielder. Wolvaardt was falling back but was able to juggle the ball onto both hands and then into the right hand. Kapp is stoked! 4/15.4 Drags it on as she gets caught between playing and leaving It was a full ball around fifth stump. Knight looked to leave it after considering playing it. In the meantime, the ball came in. Took the inside edge off its own volition and clattered the stumps. Kapp is pumped again! 19/211.3 Pulled off the edge to... slip! The freak dismissal comes off a shortish ball. Sciver swivelled with the pull, she may have even missed it on the first attempt and it hit her body but then hit the back of the bat on the way behind and lobbed up to slip. Yes, that may need a rub of the eyes and a re-read as England unwittingly find new ways of getting out to South Africa's delight 42/337.6 But Jones is short at the striker's end The run was tight and the fielder came in quickly and underarmed it at a good height. Jones' stoic effort ends in an unfortunate manner. The projected score will take a major dip 167/545.3 Extra bounce off the slower ball gets a caught behind Dunkley tried to stay down and pull it from outside off but was too early into the shot. Correction, it was just outside off 204/745.1 Good length outside off, comes down and gets her hands through it a bit too early and the edge balloons to cover 201/647.1 Skied to third man to give Kapp a 5-fer It was a slower ball, on a good length. Cross tried to swing through it but was done for the lack of pace and bounce. The South Africans cheer and congratulate Kapp on her achievement 216/848.6 Yorker on the stumps, Dean cannot dig it out to the offside and is bowled. 227/9Extras20 (lb 8, nb 2, w 10)TOTAL235/9 (50 Overs, RR: 4.7)Fall of wickets: 1-4 (Danni Wyatt-Hodge, 1.6 ov), 2-19 (Heather Knight, 5.4 ov), 3-42 (Nat Sciver-Brunt, 11.3 ov), 4-149 (Tammy Beaumont, 33.6 ov), 5-167 (Amy Jones, 37.6 ov), 6-201 (Katherine Sciver-Brunt, 45.1 ov), 7-204 (Sophia Dunkley, 45.3 ov), 8-216 (Kate Cross, 47.1 ov), 9-227 (Charlie Dean, 48.6 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR5.4 what a ripper to beat Lee completely! That's some serious banana inswing from outside off, pitches it well outside off in fact, Lee sees the width and swings her arms, the ball goes all the way in and knocks over her off stump. Shrubsole screams in delight! 18/135.5 pulls to midwicket, Sciver takes the catch, Cross finally gets a wicket and it's the big one! Wolvaardt wants consecutive boundaries and she goes after the short ball, but doesn't really middle the pull from outside off, Sciver goes to her left for a step or two and takes it comfortably 158/418.5 Holes out to deep fine-leg It was a fullish ball around the off-stump. Brits went across and tried to paddle it, somehow gets enough to carry enough to the fielder. The fielder takes it with a lunge and hands over her bent knee 74/234.1 do England finally have a stumping? England are celebrating as the decision goes upstairs. Lovely delivery from Dean with flight on length to draw Luus forward for the drive. She drove outside off, missed by playing inside the line, third umpire checks by UltraEdge that there's no edge first of all and the square angle shows the bails are dislodged just in time by Jones when Luus' back foot is in the air. England are pumped, this is the kind of sharp work they need in the field 147/338.5 edged behind, pops out of the glove but Jones takes it on the juggle! du Preez goes back for the cut to get some runs after the four dots, there's some bounce and she gets a thick outside edge, it goes in and out of Jones' gloves, and she takes it on second attempt as England rejoice 169/548.2 really loud appeal, and it's plumb if there's no bat. Finger goes up and she reviews immediately! Oh my, there's no edge according to UltraEdge as Kapp goes for a swipe on the leg side after going down on a knee. Pitches on off, goes under the bat, hits her in front of middle and leg, and that's hitting the stumps! 226/743.4 a run-out at the non-striker's end like so many others in the World Cup! It's Tryon this time as Kapp drills the ball back, Brunt gets some fingertips and the ball deflects on to the stumps, and Tryon is a long, long way outside 199/6Extras20 (b 4, lb 8, w 8)TOTAL236/7 (49.2 Overs, RR: 4.78)Fall of wickets: 1-18 (Lizelle Lee, 5.4 ov), 2-74 (Tazmin Brits, 18.5 ov), 3-147 (Sune Luus, 34.1 ov), 4-158 (Laura Wolvaardt, 35.5 ov), 5-169 (Mignon du Preez, 38.5 ov), 6-199 (Chloe Tryon, 43.4 ov), 7-226 (Marizanne Kapp, 48.2 ov)
