by SA won the toss, and sent England in to bat. When the innings ended
after 45 overs when the time limit was reached, England had made
6/252, leaving South Africa 45 overs to make 253 to win.
22 needed from 13 balls when rain interrupted play.
After 42.5: 6/231 (McMillan 20, Richardson 13, Extras 21)
Covers coming off now, apparently one over removed from the SA innings,
so now just one over and one ball left, target will be unchanged,
so now 22 to get in 7 balls.
Now apparently changed to just one ball remaining, target will still
be unchanged. 22 needed from one ball.
Lots of discussion, game could have been finished if everyone wasn't
talking quite so much...
Lewis walks in, single to mid wicket for McMillan.
After 43: 6/232 (McMillan 21, Richardson 13, Extras 21)
