And a jolly entertaining innings too - "watched" on cricinfo.com. Now we see if it was the pitch or the rather poor bowling, or maybe a bit of both.

Best ODI score on this ground I believe. Just a shame they could crawl over the 400 runs line.

Stat Attack: This is the first time 8 different batsmen have hit a six in an ODI innings.

SA 151 for 3 after 19.5 overs.

They need another 259 - difficult but not impossible.

Very interesting match. But as they say on cricinfo: De Kock has to go really large if SA are to win.
