4th ODI: South Africa v England at Johannesburg

England can once again secure a series victory with a win at Johannesburg. By contrast, South Africa will look to even up the series and build on the momentum provided by the brilliance of de Kock and Amla at Centurion.

It has been confirmed that Stuart Broad will come back into the ODI side for the first time since the World Cup debacle. The last time Broad stepped foot onto the field at Johannesburg he took 6/17. More of the same, please.

England are looking in good touch and with Stuart Broad coming back they will be strengthened. They are looking set to clinch this series with a victory at Johannesburg. South Africa though were terrific in the last match with the bat and will be looking again towards Quinton de Kock and  Hashim Amla to keep the series alive

Pink day. Today is all about promoting awareness of breast cancer.

South Africa have won the toss and chose to field. England 13/0 after 4 overs.

Whatever the result of this one day series, England can be proud of the tour in south Africa, and I don't think that even the most optimistic cricket fan could have expected the results and performance to be as good as it has been from England.
