Watch the best bits as South Africa cut England's lead to 2-1

Watch a pick of the action from the third ODI between South Africa and England

Joe Root will be pleased to have plundered his highest ODI score of 125 at Centurion - but he'll be disappointed by the result of the match.

That's because South Africa chased down England's Root-inspired 318-8 with 22 balls to spare courtesy of terrific centuries from Quinton de Kock (135) and Hashim Amla (127).

The victory kept the one-day series alive with the Proteas cutting the tourists' lead to 2-1 ahead of the final two encounters, in Johannesburg on Friday and Cape Town on Sunday.
