End of over 7 (7 runs) England 96/3 (134 runs required from 13 overs, RR: 13.71, RRR: 10.30)

EJG Morgan4 (4b 0x4 0x6)
JE Root6 (6b 0x4 0x6)
Imran Tahir1-0-7-0
K Rabada3-0-40-1
6.6
Imran Tahir to Morgan, 1 run
 

Raja's stomach has a thing to tell you. "My gut feeling says Tahir will be standing between England and SA...fast bowlers will not be a threat in this pitch".

 
6.5
Imran Tahir to Root, 1 run, stands tall and, off the back foot, punches it straight to long-on
 

Tight from Imran so far

 
6.4
Imran Tahir to Morgan, 1 run, nice and full. Morgan walks into a clip to long-on
6.3
Imran Tahir to Root, 1 run, too wide but Root can only get a single, driving it solidly to deep extra cover - and straight to him
6.2
Imran Tahir to Root, 2 runs, deftly paddled around the corner but Rabada is an athlete, and a sprawling dive saves two
6.1
Imran Tahir to Morgan, 1 run, on middle, turned to leg for a single
 

Tahir's into the attack. What ho!
