He also reminds us that a 20-over thrash is the minimum overs for a game and, to get that up, they’ll need to be on the field by 6:02pm. “And that’s not to say there won’t be anomolies - those who will just play T20 - but you look at those who have sustained it, that is the journey they have been on: a basic technique that they are then able to expand on.” YJB, this is music to my ears. I also see 50-over cricket is a stepping stone to Test cricket as you get worked over for longer and you’ve got to play [mimics Boycott accent] good cricket shots.” He adds that England need to be realistic about how long it will take for the Test team to get to where they need to be, to effecively repeat what the one-day team did. But for all of that progress and renewal, there’s little doubt that the Australians will be the team to beat for gold - as usual. “The good news,” begins Nick Knight, “is that the rain has stopped for now.” Before they then they cut to a shot where it’s raining, stitching him up deluxe.

Moeen Ali to Lungi Ngidi, Beaten again! Adil Rashid to Anrich Nortje, Almost another one! Adil Rashid to Dwaine Pretorius, OUT! TAKEN! That should be the final nail in the coffin, if not nailed before! The ball goes off the thick outside edge to short third man. However, he ends up playing it early and the ball loops up straight back to the bowler. The ball holds a bit off the surface and Lungi Ngidi looks to push it away.

Left-armers, spinners run through SA after Livingstone, Curran cameos.

Buttler advanced down the track and tried to hit Shamsi down the ground for six but got an outside edge to Pretorius at short third. For the second match in succession, Buttler tried to take Shamsi on and for the second time, he failed. Pretorius had three wickets for nine runs in his first two overs and almost claimed a fourth when Moeen edged him wide of a diving de Kock. With no slip in place, Moeen survived but not for too much longer. Roy dismissal brought Phil Salt to the crease, in his seventh ODI and in the absence of the now-retired Ben Strokes and he rubbed it in Lungi Ngidi's wounds when he whipped Ngidi through fine leg, then edged him short of de Kock and then over a vacant slip area for four. In his first over, Pretorius had Salt caught at mid-wicket by a diving Miller, a wicket which was confirmed on umpire's review, and then struck twice in his second to leave England reeling. Buttler deserves the credit for England's field placement as he putLiam Livingstoneat short cover and de Kock got a leading edge to him, as he tried to work Willey into the leg side.
