Brilliant from Buttler. Absolutely brilliant. He recovers quickly after the fumble, gets to the ball and hits the bull's eye at the bowler's end and Klaasen is well short of the crease.

A straightforward high catch from Harry Brook. Hendricks departs looking to go big. He walks back after scoring 19 off 25 ball; am I the only one who feels Hendricks has quite showed his magic yet?
ENG Vs SA Live Score: Adil Rashid Gets QDK?
England finally get a breakthrough. But wait a second...they decide to review it.
Mark Wood with a simple catch in the deep. Quinton de Kock wants the umpires to sent this upstairs. And they go up! It appeared to be a clean catch in real time. Replays come in. Wood has taken it low and in front. His fingers are under the ball, a front-on angle is now being checked.

ENG Vs SA Live Score: Pitch Report by Natalie Germanos and Michael Atherton
Germanos: "Its a fresh pitch today and it's a day game. So what are the conditions? The temperature is 30 degrees Celsius and there is very little chance of rain. There is a 16 kmph wind flowing across the ground which will be a factor here. The square boundaries are even at 66m and 69m. The straight hit is 78m. I have Michael Atherton with me here. Hello Michael. What do you make of this pitch number 3?"
Atherton: "It's doesn't look any different than what we have seen here previously. It's going to be a very good surface. In terms of batting, this is the best pitch anywhere in the Caribbean. We are in for a high-scoring game today.
ENG Vs SA Live Score: The toss is about to begin soon!
ENG Vs SA Live Score: Daren Sammy Pitch Report
The pitch at Daren Sammy Stadium in St Lucia is expected to be hard and bouncy. Fast bowlers would love to bowl here but the batters would also have an equal answer.
The pitch in St Lucia has historically been high-scoring, with some extra bounce for the fast bowlers, and minimal assistance for spinners. Teams have scored 180 or more runs four times in six attempts at this venue, making it likely to be a high-scoring game.
ENG Vs SA Live Score: Will SA defeat England?
Head-to-Head (in T20 World Cups):
Total matches played: 6
England won: 2
South Africa won: 4
South Africa have had good results against England in the previous World Cup matches and if the Proteas manage to not choke under pressure, then they can beat the defending champions.
ENG Vs SA Live Score: That's how hard the Proteas Men are training!
ENG Vs SA Live Score: Jos Buttler & Co are all geared up!
ENG Vs SA Live Score: Probable 11
South Africa (Probable XI): Quinton de Kock (wk), Reeza Hendricks, Aiden Markram (c), Heinrich Klaasen, David Miller, Tristan Stubbs, Marco Jansen, Keshav Maharaj, Kagiso Rabada, Anrich Nortje, Tabraiz Shamsi

ENG Vs SA Live Score: Team Previews
South Africa
South Africa extended their winning run in this World Cup after a win over the USA on Wednesday. It was their fifth straight win, but it wasn't as comfortable as they would have wanted it to be.
Positive was that Quinton de Kock returned to form and helped SA put a big score on the board. However, the usual worry for the Proteas, they seemed to choke when under pressure and something similar happened against the USA.
Thus, the management would look to give some motivation to the players. Rest, the playing XI is likely to be the same.
ENG Vs SA Live Score: Team Previews
England
After a defeat against Australia, the defending champions are back to their best, as they made a statement against West Indies after chasing 181 runs with eight wickets in hand and 15 balls left.
Phil Salt is the key player that the Proteas must worry about as he has carried his IPL form in this World Cup. The right-hand batter has amassed 147 runs in four matches and is England's leading run-getter this edition.
Another positive for the Three Lions is that Jonny Bairstow has found himself among runs despite batting in the middle order.
One area where England would want to work is in the bowling department. The bowlers have done well but given too many runs for any side's liking. Thus, the management would expect their bowlers to be more economical given the talent South Africa possess.
