10.00pmWell, we avoided the Super Over, which is becoming quite fashionable these days. South Africa secure the upset, only their third win against England in the past 11 T20Is between these two sides. Mignon du Preez, the first South African woman to play 100 T20 internationals with her appearance in this match, struck the winning runs, a six followed by a single off Katherine Brunt in the final over to bring it home.

Du Preez speaking to Sky Sports: "I've played in all seven World Cups and we've never come this close. We've said we want to do something special and this is just the start."

Player of the match Dane van Niekerk with 46 runs off 51 balls and two wickets: "I'm really proud. Honestly, it was a team performance today."

What a start to this tournament. India toppling the hosts and favourites, Australia, in the opening match and South Africa securing their maiden win over England at a Women's T20 World Cup. England, the No. 2 side in the world, didn't manage to get enough runs on the board in their innings and then failed to capitalise on the early dismissal of Lizelle Lee which had South Africa 1 for 6 in the third over. They had 90 runs on the board by the time Marizanne Kapp was the next wicket to fall and, while van Niekerk didn't score rapidly early on, she top scored for her side before the experienced du Preez held her nerve to get them over the line.

England captain Heather Knight: "We obviously have to pick ourselves up quite quickly from this defeat. Every game is going to be a massive game for us now. We'll assess this game, try and park it very quickly and move on."

Thanks so much for joining us, everyone. From Gnasher, Thilak and myself, we thoroughly enjoyed your company and look forward the next one.

END OF OVER:

That was an excellent performance with the ball and, largely, in the field by South Africa. England have scrambled to a total that gives them something to bowl at, but it feels a few short. All South Africa's were good, but Ismail stood out with her pace while Kapp was excellent. Nat Sciver played the key hand for England, but it was an unconvincing display by much of the order. "It's a good deck, no demons," says Ismail. "Under par we feel." It will be a fascinating run chase. Val will be with your shortly.
