OVER 13: ENG 53/1 (Cook 16*, Trott 23*) Just a single from Jonathan Trott from the over, and Wayne Parnell has now bowled three overs for just five runs. England require 159 from 37 overs (4.3 RPO).
OVER 12: ENG 52/1 (Cook 16*, Trott 22*) South Africa - courtesy of Morne Morkel and Parnell - are starting to tighten up a bit. Cook plays out five dot balls before punching the ball past mid-on for four from the final ball to avoid a maiden. Until that one he had been struggling somewhat to get the ball off the square. England require 160 from 38 overs (4.2 RPO).
OVER 11: ENG 48/1 (Cook 12*, Trott 22*) Stonking first ball of the over from Parnell which beats Cook all ends up. Good over from Wazza - three runs come from it. England require 164 from 39 overs (4.2 RPO).
OVER 10: ENG 45/1 (Cook 10*, Trott 21*) Trott plays one right off his hip for a couple of runs then repeats the trick a few balls later. And that's the end of the first powerplay. England require 167 from 40 overs (4.2 RPO).
OVER 9: ENG 41/1 (Cook 10*, Trott 17*) Wayne Parnell into the attack for Steyn, and it is a good start from him. He is very close to Trott's outside edge as the English batsman looks to use the pace of the ball to guide it towards third man. England require 171 from 41 overs (4.2 RPO).
OVER 8: ENG 40/1 (Cook 10*, Trott 16*) Morne Morkel replaces Tsotsobe. Not that Trott is concerned by that, as he pummels his first ball for another boundary. Morkel does go on to deceive Cook, though, with a ball which the England captain tried to flick into leg. England require 172 from 42 overs (4.1 RPO).
OVER 7: ENG 35/1 (Cook 10*, Trott 11*) Steyn looks mighty peeved as Trott chops one agonisingly close to his stumps before it races away for four. Cook carves the final ball of the over through the off side for another boundary. England are well up with the required run rate - 11 come from the over. England require 177 from 43 overs (4.1 RPO).
OVER 6: ENG 24/1 (Cook 4*, Trott 6*) Trott pushes Tsotsobe into the leg side for three before Cook finally gets off the mark by glancing one off his hips to the boundary in front of square. Tsotsobe is proving to be fairly expensive so far. England require 188 from 44 overs (4.3 RPO).
OVER 5: ENG 17/1 (Cook 0*, Trott 3*) Some excellent fielding by a leaping Faf du Plessis at point prevents what looked like it could have been a Trott boundary as Steyn continues to keep it straight. Alastair Cook has now faced 15 balls without scoring, while Steyn has conceded just three runs from his three overs. England require 195 from 45 overs (4.3 RPO).
OVER 4: ENG 16/1 (Cook 0*, Trott 2*) A much tidier over from Tsotsobe. Just a Trott single, and he also gets Cook in a slight spot of bother as he is struck on the pad with one which just brushes past his outside edge before looping up into the air. England require 196 from 46 overs (4.3 RPO).
More punning on the emails - excellent to see. This in from Lanky: "Cook era - recipe for disaster. England to win by 3 wickets."
OVER 3: ENG 15/1 (Cook 0*, Trott 1*) Just two off the over from Steyn - and only one against his name. Jonathan Trott is the new bat. He gets off the mark by dabbing the ball towards third man for a single. England require 197 from 47 overs (4.2 RPO).
WICKET! Bell lbw b Steyn 12 Oh dear, I hope my poor pun wasn't a curse on Ian Bell, who is pinned right in front by a fullish ball from Steyn. No doubts in my mind, but Umpire Kettleborough takes an age to raise the finger. Bell quickly consults Captain Cook, who tells him what Hawkeye confirms - he's out - before he trots off. FOW 13/1.
OVER 2: ENG 13/0 (Cook 0*, Bell 12*) Lonwabo Tsotsobe is a bit all over the place and Ian Bell helps himself to two fours off the first three balls of the over, both struck forcefully through the off side. Then he pulls another loosener to the leg-side boundary. Tsotsobe, it seems, is one bowler for whom the Bell tolls. England require 199 from 48 overs (4.1 RPO).
Thanks - kind of - to the budding meteorologists who replied to my requests at 16.52. Here's Jeff Wigham: "It?s raining in Friedelsheim ( near Frankfurt / Heidelberg ) if that is any help!"
OVER 1: ENG 1/0 (Cook 0*, Bell 0*) Dale Steyn takes the new ball and it's a pretty decent first over, save for a legside wide. Aside from that, Alastair Cook seems happy to play out six dots. England require 211 from 49 overs (4.3 RPO).
17.02 Well, it appears I have been deceived by the windows. It still looks fine, if slightly more cloudy. Here come South Africa, followed by the England batsmen - we're about to get restarted.
16.52 Is it the Sky Sports studio windows, or has it suddenly turned really overcast at the Oval? Anyone in the Kennington/Vauxhall able to shed some light (sorry) on it?
16.40 So, are we confident England can chase down the target of 212, which is barely over four runs an over? The pitch doesn't exactly look terrible, and weather conditions are still perfect at the Oval.
16.26 So a pretty good innings for England, who, don't forget, lost the toss. Jimmy Anderson - who will be on a hat-trick at the next ODI - rounded off the tail and finished with four wickets. Jade Dernbach finished with three, while Ravi Bopara bowled all 10 overs for just 31 runs. Hashim Amla, with 43, top-scored for the Proteas.
WICKET! Tsotsobe lbw b Anderson 0 Jimmy Anderson finishes the South Africans off by trapping Lanwabo Tsotsobe in front first ball. South Africa review - they might as well - and it looks slightly high but Hawkeye says it's going on to clip the leg bail, which means it stays with Umpire Richard Kettleborough's decision of out. SA last just 46.4 overs. FOW 211-10
WICKET! Steyn b Anderson 1 Well, it doesn't look as if South Africa are going to survive the 50 overs. Anderson knocks over Morkel stumps with another one which keeps straight. Morkel becomes the sixth batter to have been dismissed bowled. FOW 211-9
OVER 46: SA 211/8 (Peterson 23*, Morkel 7*) Morkel guides the first ball of Dernbach's ninth over off his hips, a touch uppishly, but it races away safely to the boundary. First decent over for the tourists for quite a while.
OVER 45: SA 204/8 (Peterson 22*, Morkel 1*) Peterson had relieved a bit of the pressure by carving a four from the first delivery of Anderson, and after a single put Steyn on strike the Englishman struck back in some style. SA have 30 balls left to rescue this innings.
WICKET! Steyn b Anderson 1 Dale Steyn can only manage a single from his seven balls before his off pole is smashed out of the ground by a perfect delivery from James Anderson. England dominating, South Africa struggling. FOW 203-8
OVER 44: SA 198/7 (Peterson 17*, Steyn 1*) Tredwell sends down his last over and it's another very valuable one for England, with just a couple of singles coming from it.
OVER 43: SA 196/7 (Peterson 16*, Steyn 0*) Bopara bowls his 10th and final over - Michael Holding on the box tells us it's only the second time in his ODI career he's bowled his full complement, which is a stat I quite like. It's another very tidy over from the Essex man. Indeed, it's so tidy it's played out by Peterson for a maiden. Well done Ravi. His final figures are an impressive 10-1-31-1.
OVER 42: SA 196/7 (Peterson 16*, Steyn 0*) So Dale Steyn is the new man. Peterson had picked up three runs to fine leg just before the wicket and then another single - the batsmen had crossed after Duminy had skied one.
WICKET! Duminy c Bell b Tredwell 33 JP goes for a big one, but doesn't get anywhere near enough behind it as it goes very high but not very far. Bell is underneath it and just about clings on to the catch, well inside the long-off boundary. FOW 195-7
OVER 41: SA 192/6 (Peterson 12*, Duminy 33*) It's Ravi Bopara's turn to have a bowl and he almost continues with his excellent economy rate from earlier, but a boundary cut away past backward point by Duminy relieves a bit of the pressure on the Proteas. There's also a big appeal for lbw, but it's both pitching and hitting well outside leg stump.
OVER 40: SA 187/6 (Peterson 11*, Duminy 29*) Anderson bowls the last over of the batting powerplay (which I may have mistakenly said England had taken, apologies for that obvious wrong) and concedes just four. It means South Africa managed only 22 runs from the five-over PP, so pretty good going from the hosts.
OVER 39: SA 183/6 (Peterson 9*, Duminy 27*) And four more singles conceded by Finn in an over which included a wild swipe at a slightly wide ball from Peterson and a leading edge from Duminy.
OVER 38: SA 179/6 (Peterson 7*, Duminy 25*) Right, anyway, in comes Anderson. He seems in a mean mood, conceding just a pair of singles. With 12 overs to go, what sort of scores would each side be happy with from here on in?
It looks as though we have a new leader in the pun contest I'm not sure we were previously playing. Does that make sense? Anyway, this from Andrew Holgate: "Dernbach has been as effective as a Nimrod today. He's got rid of Elgar without too much pomp and circumstance, but it's an enigma why he isn't more consistent."
OVER 37: SA 177/6 (Peterson 6*, Duminy 24*) Dernbach continues. Some sharp and intelligent running from the Saffers helps them pick up five singles to keep the scoreboard ticking over.
OVER 36: SA 172/6 (Peterson 4*, Duminy 21*) Steven Finn replaces Tredwell as the third powerplay is taken. The paceman can't keep it as tight as he might have hoped, however, and throws his hands up in frustration after a stray one down the leg side is clipped away to the fine-leg boundary by Duminy.
OVER 35: SA 165/6 (Peterson 3*, Duminy 15*) Five runs off the over but it's another excellent one from Jade Dernbach. And he almost picks up his fourth wicket as Robin Peterson mistimes an attempted drive and inside edges just past his stumps.
OVER 34: SA 160/6 (Peterson 0*, Duminy 14*) Five off the Tredwell over as JP Duminy hits a couple of twos then a single. He is going to be a key man for South Africa, you suspect, and is going to have to play an intelligent innings for the Proteas.
OVER 33: SA 155/6 (Peterson 0*, Duminy 9*) It looked like it was going to be an expensive over from Dernbach, but - aside from a sweetly struck on-side drive from Parnell - he had the South African in all sorts of bother. Fantastic bowling from Dernbach, and South Africa are under a bit of pressure here.
WICKET! Elgar c Kieswetter b Dernbach 13 Dernbach is on fire - he conceded consecutive fours on the previous two balls to Wayne Parnell, but both come from big outside edges which evade Craig Kiewswetter behind the stumps. But, finally, Parnell's luck runs out and he gets a thin edge to the keeper. FOW 155-6
OVER 32: SA 143/5 (Parnell 1*, Duminy 9*) Tight over from Tredwell there. Little to report from it, which is just as well as we've had a little switch around here. I'm Huw Silk and I'll be with you for the foreseeable future.
OVER 31: SA 141/5 (Parnell 0*, Duminy 8*) Two Dernbach dots, then Duminy has to reach to cut away a quite wide one for a single. Then the wicket, and Dernbach has two for 16.
WICKET! Elgar b Dernbach 42 That is a beauty! Dernbach's slow leggie, and the variation does for Elgar (hooray!). He is beaten all ends up! Superbly executed ball. FOW 141-5
OVER 30: SA 140/4 (Elgar 42*, Duminy 7) Tredwell being milked again. 1, 1, 2 (nice paddle from Elgar), 1, 1, 2 - take him off. He will probably get a wicket again now.
OVER 29: SA 132/4 (Elgar 36*, Duminy 5) Bopara a revelation. Elgar works him for leg for two first ball, then three dots, then an Elgar single, then a dot; three off the over, Ravi eight overs for 26, putting the super squeeze on the South Africans.
OVER 28: SA 129/4 (Elgar 33*, Duminy 5) Empassioned lbw appeal from Tredwell. Pitches middle to left-handed Duminy, but turns too much, missing his off stump. Another good over, though, from the Kentish slow-leftie.
OVER 27: SA 127/4 (Elgar 32*, Duminy 3) Duminy quickly away, punches wide of mid-on for three. But this is looking fairly good for England now.
WICKET! du Plessis b Bopara 1 The new man doesn't last long, and reward for the commendably tight line (at his modest pace) Bopara has bowled. Second ball of the over, du Plessis goes across his stumps in pre-planner fashion and the ball hits leg. Shows it's always wise to stick to the basics early on in your innings. FOW 122-4
OVER 26: SA 122/3 (du Plessis 1* Elgar 31*) Tredwell is a different man, he takes his cap and bounces off. Elgar and new man du Plessis take a couple of singles but it's a tight over, 1-26 from four looks a whole lot better.
WICKET! De Villiers c Bell b Tredwell 28 Another wicket completely out of the blue. Fair play to Cook, most skippers would have taken Tredwell off. But the Kent twirler has struck. De Villiers hit him beautifully over midwicket twice in the last over, but this time picks out Bell at long -on. FOW 120-3
OVER 25: SA 119/2 (De Villiers 28* Elgar 29*) England look a little thin on bowling today, particularly in light of Tredwell's travails. they need 20 overs between Tredwell, Bopara (who is bowling well) and Samit Patel, who hasn't turned his arm over yet. Five singles off this latest Bopara offering, only teh fifth ball, to Elgar, is a dot. De Villiers 28 off 30 balls - he doesn't hang around.
OVER 24: SA 114/2 (De Villiers 26* Elgar 26*) Problems for Tredwell. Elgar breaking out of his shell. Clips offie over mid-on for four first ball, then a single. Quality shot from De Villiers fourth delivery, lofted over mdiwicket, then similar shot for three but Bell cuts off. Elgar takes a single last ball and that's 13 off the over, Tredwell three for 23. Swannie, cancel that holiday! [Only kidding]. Come on Tredders!
OVER 23: SA 101/2 (De Villiers 19* Elgar 20*) De Villiers takes single to cover first ball, then Elgar pushes to mid-off (who is quite deep) for another one third ball, but otherwise, another fine over from Bopara.
While Peter Rowntree speculates: This looks a very thin England team to me, aside from Anderson and Finn, light on bowling; if SA get through our top three, light on batting. Think we are in for pasting today, although I hope I am wrong. Can't understand why on current form Bopara is preferred to Bairstow. As for KP, terrific player, but if the rumours circulating are correct that he criticised James Taylor in front of other England colleagues on his debut, then it is simple he should never play for England again.Alastair Cook era? Well given that team selection is part of the job, the young man has something of a learning curve to make.
Andrew Barnes says: The Cook era won't sizzle with this England tail. What does Woakes need to do to get a game?
OVER 22: SA 99/2 (De Villiers 18* Elgar 19*) And now it's spin, and Tredwell. We've had Finn, Dernbach, Anderson, Bopara, now Tredwell. It's not T20, Cookie! Safe to say he won't be making this many changes in Test cricket, isn't it?! Elgar takes single second ball, then - fourth ball - De Villiers plays a paddled reverse sweep for three. Elgar drives for one, then De Villiers ends over with a single, so attempt to regain the initiative there for the tourists.
OVER 21: SA 93/2 (De Villiers 14* Elgar 17*) Very tight over from Bopara, and the inverse of the 20th from Anderson - first four balls are dots, then two singles. England containing well here.
OVER 20: SA 91/2 (De Villiers 13* Elgar 16*) Singles from the first four balls of the returning Anderson's over. The last two balls are dots. Considering that was the last over of the bowling Powerplay for England, they'd settle for that.
OVER 19: SA 87/2 (De Villiers 11* Elgar 14*) Elgar single. Second ball also brings a single, to De Villiers. Then Finn appeals for lbw but ball impacts Elgar outside off stump. Elgar pushes a single wideof mid-on. Tight over.
OVER 18: SA 85/2 (De Villiers 10* Elgar 12*) Quick single for De Villiers. Then Elgar drives square and forces Morgan into a good, diving stop. Next ball he does take one. Over ends with a sumptious drive from De Villiers. Opens the face slightly and punches through extra. How can a player come in and play shots like that from the off? Magnificent. Finn bit expensive, nought for 31 from six.
OVER 17: SA 78/2 (De Villiers 4* Elgar 11*) Tidy Dernbach over until captain De Villiers tickles one down the leg side for four. Still, good over for England.
Nick Hoult ?@NHoultCricket: Dernbach bowls Amla and marks it with a celebration from the KP School of Under Statement. Can't blame him tho
WICKET! Amla b Dernbach 42 Coasting to his doom! Amla bowled by Dernbach. I put the kiss of death on him there. Who saw that one coming? Full-pitched ball, Amla slighly loose in the drive, bit of an inside edge, and then the dreaded rattle - off pole removed. FOW 73-2
OVER 16: SA 73/1 (Amla 43* Elgar 11*) Hashim 'The New Wall' Amla takes a quick single to mid-off. Elgar takes off like Nimrod to ensure he makes his ground. He also takes one; then later in the over Amla whips Finn comfortably off his hips for another single. Easy-paced track and Amla coasting.
OVER 15: SA 72/1 (Amla 41* Elgar 10*) Four off the Ravi over, which heralds the arrival of Huw Turbervill to do a bit of blogging; and the bowling Powerplay for England.
OVER 14: SA 66/1 (Amla 39* Elgar 8*) Continuing the theme of quiet but not especially exciting cricket, James Trewell comes on for an over of his honest off-spinners. Four off it.
OVER 13: SA 62/1 (Amla 36* Elgar 7*) Another useful over from Ravi Bopara, just two runs from it. It's one of those rather boring passages of ODI play where both sides are happy just to idle for a bit.
OVER 12: SA 60/1 (Amla 35* Elgar 6*) Been quiet since the wicket. Jade Dernbach keeps a lid on things with his battery of slower balls and leg-cutters. A single to each player.
OVER 11: SA 58/1 (Amla 34* Elgar 5*) Ravi Bopara comes on for an early bowl, encouraging signs of inventive captaincy from Cook. Decent over from Ravi, just three off it.
OVER 10: SA 55/1 (Amla 32* Elgar 4*) Jade Dernbach comes in. A single to third man for Amla, and now a chance for England to have a look at Dean Elgar. He's VERY lucky not to chop the ball onto his own stumps; but then plays a pleasing square drive that gives him four runs.
OVER 9: SA 50/1 (Amla 31* Elgar 0*) That was a most generous donation to the England cause from Smith. Earlier in the over, he had calmly and ruthlessly lumped a couple of balls to the legside for two and four. All very odd. Young Elgar - Edward to his friends, or probably not - comes to the crease.
WICKET! Smith b Anderson 18 Blimey, that's a real gift for England! Smith has what I can only describe as a rush of blood to the head, charges down the pitch like a madman and heaves wildly at a straight ball. FOW 50/1
OVER 8: SA 44/0 (Amla 31* Smith 12*) Finn gets away with a full toss to Smith, but not to a short ball at Amla, who pulls it away with relish. Now he slaps a ball through the offside. Two unusually workmanlike strokes from the stylist Amlan, and that makes ten off the over.
OVER 7: SA 34/0 (Amla 22* Smith 11*) Ugly heave from Smith - more so than usual, I mean - and he fails to connect. Much better over from Anderson, there are just two runs from it.
OVER 6: SA 32/0 (Amla 21* Smith 10*) Two nice bits of fielding - one from bowler Finn himself, the other from Morgan at square leg - keep this Finn over down to two, so it could all have ben a lot worse. England have yet to create much.
OVER 5: SA 30/0 (Amla 20* Smith 9*) It's not often you see Jimmy Anderson bowl a bad over for England, but that was pretty toilet. Amla runs the ball of the face for two, then drives and overpitched ball through cover for four. Anderson over-corrects with a legside wide, and then another legside ball is helped on its way for a boundary. Reckon this is a 300-pitch.
OVER 4: SA 18/0 (Amla 9* Smith 9*) Smith works a ball into the legside for four. After a single, Finn yet again knocks the bails off in his delivery stride and this time the umpires have had enough. nice ball from Finn now though, jagging it back into Amla who gets an inside edge.
An email arrives from a South African in Denmark! I love the internets. Writes Jim Neversink: "Breaking News on KP: England have purchased exclusive rights to use U2's ''With or Without You'' as their theme song. Shortlisted were ''I ain't missing you at all, no matter what my teammates say'' and ''County Roads take me home.'' Jokes aside, I'm a fan of the man and hope to see him back in the team soon and even as a Saffer, I feel deprived not being able to witness his magic. Win or lose I just want to see some good cricket."
OVER 3: SA 12/0 (Amla 8* Smith 4*) Cook removes one of the slips, so just one in the cordon for Jimmy Anderson with the new ball. Uncharacteristic heave and a miss from Amla. But now a lovely punch back down the ground for four to the same batsman - economy of effort, all timing. What a player this fellow is. Picks up a couple off the last ball of the over and the early signs from The Oval is that this is a nice day for a bat.
OVER 2: SA 6/0 (Amla 2* Smith 4*) Finn. Knocks the bails off the non-striker's stumps right away (by accident, I mean, not a Mankading incident). A legside delivery is meat and drink to Basher Smith, off those big pads for a couple. Ugly drive down the ground from Smith is stopped by Finn. Now an offside ball, but it's all the same to Smith. He pulls that away for a couple. Finn knocks the bails off again from the last ball of the over and Smith is in the unpire's ear moaning about it. Those fielders in the offside might as well bring a deckchair.
OVER 1: SA 2/0 (Amla 2* Smith 0*) Not much movement to speak of in that first over from Anderson. Amla tucks him off the pads for a couple.
12.57 Here comes James Anderson to bowl to Amla. interestingly, or not, Amla is batting one and Smith two today - the reverse of their positions in the last game.
12.55 So the players are coming out. Will Hashim Amla be giving us another masterclass? England will hope not. Incidentally, if they win this game, they will go back to the top of the ODI rankings.
12.50 These two men really have their work cut out I reckon. On paper, these teams are starting to look a bit mismatched. South Africa have won the toss and will bat.
12.30: Afternoon everyone, welcome to our live coverage today's one-dayer.
England team: AN Cook*, IR Bell, IJL Trott, RS Bopara, EJG Morgan, C Kieswetter?, JC Tredwell, SR Patel, JM Anderson, JW Dernbach, ST Finn
South Africa team: GC Smith, HM Amla, D Elgar, AB de Villiers*?, JP Duminy, F du Plessis, WD Parnell, RJ Peterson, M Morkel, LL Tsotsobe, DW Steyn
MATCH FACTS
England have won their last four ODIs at The Kia Oval, the last three of those victories came when batting second.
James Anderson is the leading wicket-taker in ODIs at The Kia Oval having picked up 21 scalps at an average of 21.28.
South Africa have lost their last three ODIs against England at The Kia Oval. The Proteas last victory at the south London venue in this format was in the 1999 ICC World Cup.
Hashim Amla's 150 in the previous match was the highest ODI score by a South Africa batsman since Herschelle Gibbs' famous 175 in the Proteas' world record chase against Australia in March 2006.
In the previous match of this series AB de Villiers became the fourth fastest batsman to 5,000 ODI runs. Only West Indian legends Viv Richards, Brian Lara and Gordon Greenidge have reached the landmark after fewer innings.
Just three England players have a career strike rate of over 90 in ODIs and they are all present in England's current middle-order (minimum 500 balls faced). Tim Bresnan (92.53), Craig Kieswetter (91.82) and Eoin Morgan (91.25) top the list of England's quickest runscorers in this format.
In his previous eight ODIs this summer Ian Bell has been dismissed for under 40 just once. The England opener averages 62.71 since returning to the ODI side in June.
Ravi Bopara has scored just 44 runs at an average of 6.29 across all formats since 19th July.
South Africa have scored fewer sixes than their opponents in five of their last six ODI victories. In those six matches they have scored a total of 12 maximums in contrast to their opponents' 24.
Hashim Amla has passed 50 in six of his last seven innings in this form of the game.

It is a well-known fact that physical activity benefits the vital organs of the body, such as the heart and lungs.? But another vital organ that is also greatly impacted by physical activity is the SKIN. Exercise increases the circulation of blood, oxygen, and nutrients throughout our protective covering, and the place one notices these healthy effects the most is in the skin tissue of the face.
