shortish and skidding on as Hendricks attempts to pull, comes off the hip behind point
Chris Jordan on for Curran. Seems like the rain has swept through for now
Nine runs off the over, but SA still struggling to lift the rate, approaching the halfway point of the innings
flighted, worked off the stumps through midwicket
floated up outside off, 78kph/49mph and dabbed delicately off the back foot towards short third man
clubbed back over the bowler's head! Good use of the feet and he drills it for a straight four
pushed through a little faster, Hendricks nudges through midwicket for a single
tossed up, 76 clicks and met by Bavuma skipping down, worked into the leg side - but there's only one there
flighted outside the line of off and Hendricks goes inside out, chipped down the ground to long-off
fullish on the stumps, this is whipped through square leg for one
spears in a yorker, right up towards the blockhole and Hendricks settles for digging it out
Here's Malcolm: "This is massively in favor of England. The chances of SA winning here are miniscule. England basically have an 8 or 9 over head start, because SA were playing normally for the first few overs. England can start from scratch and completely blast the match and the run rate to oblivion."
dug in short, pulled flat through midwicket for another single
fired on middle and leg, Hendricks clips through square
skips out, attempts to hoick leg side again... back-of-the-hand slowie from Curran and Bavuma doesn't time it, manages to clear the infield for three towards long-on
length ball outside off, pushed into the covers for a single
Just drizzling, I think, the umpires are keeping them out (for now)

pushed through, 76kph/47mph and skidding on, clipped leg side
slow and loopy on middle and leg, Hendricks props forward in defence
floated up and tapped into the off side
full and staying a touch low, hit on the back pad... Jordan appeals and Aleem Dar shakes his head, but England review, and this doesn't look good for Bavuma. Thudding into leg stump, according to Hawk-Eye, and that is curtains!. Up goes Dar's finger, and then immediately he signals to the groundsmen, too! It's raining again!
Fair point, from Jurie Schoeman: "Malcolm - maybe you should read up on how Duckworth Lewis works... That's exactly what the method takes into account. The SA score will be increased"
