<h2><strong>South Africa's inning:</strong></h2>



<p>The hosts did not have a good start as Temba Bavuma departed in the first over itself. Skipper, Quinton de Kock, and experienced Faf du Plessis didn?t let the English bowlers took control of the innings. Both the batsmen sewed a good 80 runs stand before the second wicket.&nbsp;</p>



<p>De Kock (30 from 23) went to the hut off Chris Jordan However, du Plessis remained in the middle to set a good total.</p>



<p>Sam Curran got du Plessis out when the protea just crossed his fifty.</p>



<p>In the quota of full 20 overs, South Africa managed a good total on the board, 179-6 (20 overs). Faf du Plessis (58 from 40), Quinton de Kock (30 from 23), van der Dussen (37 off 28) and Klaasen (20 off 12) contributed to the 179 runs total.</p>



<p>Sam Curran picked 3 scalps while Jofra Archer, Tom Curran, and Chris Joran got one each.</p>



<h2><strong>England's Inning:</strong></h2>



<p>England skipper, Eoin Morgan made a drastic change by promoting Jos Buttler to the opening slot while Jhonny Bairstow came at 4.</p>



<p>The chase was not going to be easy for the Englishmen, their openers departed inside 5 overs putting the lineup on the back foot.</p>



<p>The T20I sensation Dawid Malan could not stay in the crease for a long as he went to the hut after scoring 19 runs. Johnny Bairstow from one end took complete charge, getting close to the target.</p>



<p>The turning point in the chase came when Beuran Hendricks came to bowl the 17th overs. Skipper Eoin Morgan and Jhonny Bairstow smashed the protea bowler to 28 runs all over the park, including 3 wides.</p>



<p>The chase was now completely under England?s control. Johnny Bairstow finished the innings with back to back boundaries with a four and a maximum. With these boundaries, England wins the game by 5 wickets and with four balls to spare.</p>



<p>Bairstow was awarded Man of the Match for his clinical innings of 86 from 48 balls.</p>

<p><strong>Watch: "What's your problem Rassie," Buttler-Rassie van Dussen banter during SA vs ENG 2nd ODI: </strong>England white-ball captain Jos Buttler was once again engaged in banter with the South African cricketer during South Africa vs England 2nd ODI in Bloemfontein, which was won by the home side. The verbal spat between Jos Buttler and Rassie van der Dussen was caught on the stump mic.</p>



<p>The incident happened during South Africa's innings in the 19th over when Rassie van der Dussen couldn't pick up Adil Rashid's googly. The delivery went on to take the inside edge of the batter and hit the pads before getting tossed up in the air, which eventually was a chance of a dismissal. Jos Buttler, who was doing the wicketkeeper's duties, saw the opportunity to catch the ball but was blocked by van der Dussen, who was standing at the crease.</p>



<p>Annoyed Buttler reacted angrily as he began the verbal spat with the South African batter. The entire conversation was caught on the stump mic and the umpire had to intervene and stop it.</p>



<p>"I'm trying to get to the ball," Buttler said. "What's your problem Rassie? It's not all about you all the time."</p>



<p>Rassie Van der Dussen then replied: "No, it's about you."</p>



<p>"I'm allowed to try and catch the ball," replied Jos Buttler. "What do you want me to do?" he added.</p>



<p>Before the conversation between the player could escalate, one of the two on-field umpires intervened as one of them was heard shouting, "Okay, calm down!"</p>

<p>Van der Dussen scored run-a-ball 38 in the game which was eventually won by the Proteas owing to a fantastic century from skipper Temba Bavuma. South Africa chased down a total of 342 runs in 49.1 overs in the loss of five wickets.</p>



<p>With the win, South Africa also clinched the home three-match ODI series by defeating England in the opening two matches. In the previous game, the Proteas thumped England by 27 runs to take a 1-0 lead. </p>



<p>The third ODI of the three-match series will be held on 1st February at Diamond Oval, Kimberley.</p>



<p>Meanwhile, a similar incident took place a couple of years back when Jos Buttler was seen getting into a heated argument with a now-retired, South African pacer Vernon Philander during a test game between England and South Africa.</p>



<p>The incident happened during England vs South Africa's second test in 2020 when Buttler called Philander, a "f***ing k***head." The England keeper wasn't happy with Vernon Philander coming in the way of the ball.</p>

<p><strong>ICC World Cup 2023 Points Table Updated: </strong>In an epic contest at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai, South Africa have brutally hammered defending champions, England, by a massive 229 runs. The Proteas handed a big defeat to England and subsequently made a big leap in the ICC World Cup 2023 Points Table. South Africa is now placed in the top 3 of the standings with a colossal net run rate. This article will walk you through the ICC World Cup 2023 Points Table Updated, Ranking, Most Runs, Most Wickets.</p>



<div class="wp-block-rank-math-toc-block" id="rank-math-toc"><h2><strong>Table of Contents</strong></h2><nav><ul><li class=""><a href="#icc-world-cup-2023-points-table-updated-after-south-africa-vs-england">ICC World Cup 2023 Points Table Updated after South Africa vs England</a></li><li class=""><a href="#most-runs-icc-world-cup-2023">Most Runs ICC World Cup 2023</a></li><li class=""><a href="#most-wickets-icc-world-cup-2023">Most Wickets ICC World Cup 2023</a></li></ul></nav></div>



<p>Mumbai's Wankhede Stadium is known to produce a nail-biting contest, but South Africa vs England was nowhere close to it, though, it had fireworks aplenty. </p>



<p>South Africa posted a mammoth 399 runs total, riding on the back of massive knocks from Hendricks, van der Dussen, Klassen, and Marco Jansen. The abovementioned batters took on England's bowling unit and tormented them for every loose delivery they bowled throughout the innings.</p>



<p>After losing Quinton de Kock early in the innings, Reeza Hendricks (85) and Rassie van der Dussen (60) stitched a 125-run partnership for the second wicket. Later the baton was passed on to Aiden Markram and Heinrich Klassen, who quickly scored runs and put South Africa on a ramp for a gigantic total.</p>



<p>In the process, Heinrich Klassen completed his century, while Markram was dismissed after playing 42-run innings. To finish things off on a high for South Africa, pacer Marco Jansen played a knock to cherish for a lifetime as he scored 75 runs just off 42 deliveries. Jansen's knock aided South Africa in posting 399 runs on the board, which was going to be a herculean task for England to conquer.</p>



<p>It required a lion-hearted effort from the defending champions, England to compete against such a big total. However, it was just not meant to be England's day in the business.</p>



<p>Not a single batter from the top and middle-order could show some resistance and looked threatening. England, under pressure, lost wickets in clusters right from the start of the innings. England were 8 down at the score of 100 runs.</p>



<p>Late in the innings, Mark Wood (43) and Gus Atkinson (35) tried to reduce the defeat margin by stitching a partnership of 70 runs. But as it looked right from the start, South Africa prevailed in the contest by a long way and handed England a humiliating defeat by 229 runs.</p>



<p>This defeat will hurt England a lot as it has dented its chances of storming into the top four in the ICC World Cup 2023 Points Table. Moreover, England's net run rate has gone for a deep dive following the loss. </p>



<p>On the other side, South Africa has gained two points and a big net run rate owing to the win. The Proteas are now placed third in the World Cup 2023 Points Table with three wins from four games.</p>
