10.15pm Well, that was the longest contest imaginable, but England have prevailed in superb fashion, Tammy Beaumont and Amy Jones coming together in a key stand of 90 in 63 balls after Marizanne Kapp's three-for had wrecked the top-order. It was a rather more stiff chase than might have been expected after limiting South Africa to 233, but it's a deserved result, and it hands England a 2-1 series win in the ODIs, after their 3-0 in the T20Is. Next stop, the one-off Test match in Bloemfontein on Sunday.
I'm off to write up the report, from Miller, Matt and Ranjith, good night!
