M Morkel to Ryder, 1 run, oh my oh my oh my! I cannot believe he has dropped that, Ryder has skied the drive into orbit and Ontong is hanging around under it waiting for it to come down, when it does he is simply not anywhere near where he should be to take it and ends up reaching with his fingers before spilling it, that was fielding reminiscent of this summer's other African touristsd, Zimbabwe

 de Lange to NL McCullum, no run, short and wide outside off, beats the cut and he is shocked that the  umpire hasn't called wide, New Zealand all of a sudden struggling

 de Lange to Franklin, 1 run, Franklin drills a full ball outside off on the bounce to long-off  

de Lange to bowl the final over, this is a gamble as de Villiers goes with pace

Morne's first five-for in ODIs

47.3

 M Morkel to Ellis, OUT, Morne collects a five-for! That went miles in the air, was the slower  one and Ellis took it from a length, seeking to repeat the shot he  played off Kallis, but didn't pick the slower one and found Steyn at  long-on.

New Zealand 230 (47.3 ov)

Morne's first five-for in ODIs. New Zealand will be disappointed. McCullum and Guptill had set them up for a challenging score on a good batting track with a century stand but it all began to fall apart in the Powerplay. First, with the fall of Williamson and McCullum in quick time, and then the immediate dismissal of Ryder. A score of 300 - considered to be a par score on this pitch - looked possible at one point, but a collapse of 8 for 67 has left the hosts in trouble. South Africa will back themselves to chase this and secure a series win; it will be a difficult task for New Zealand to surprise us all. Let's see what happens in the chase in 30 minutes time.
