1st One-Day International
Headingley, Leeds

ENGLAND squad: Moeen Ali, Jonny Bairstow (wk), Jake Ball, Sam Billings (wk), Jos Buttler (wk), Alex Hales, Eoin Morgan (capt), Liam Plunkett, Adil Rashid, Joe Root, Jason Roy, Ben Stokes, David Willey, Chris Woakes, Mark Wood
SOUTH AFRICA squad: Hashim Amla, Farhaan Behardien, Quinton de Kock (wk), AB de Villiers (capt & wk), Faf du Plessis, JP Duminy, Keshav Maharaj, David Miller, Morne Morkel, Chris Morris, Wayne Parnell, Andile Phehlukwayo, Dwaine Pretorius, Kagiso Rabada, Imran Tahir
Both sides head into this one-day series looking to build momentum for the Champions Trophy which begins at the weekend (though England and South Africa won't play their opening fixtures until June). England are among the favourites on home soil, but South Africa remain the world's top-ranked one-day side, having won a record-equalling sequence of twelve ODIs from September through to February.
Jos Buttler is expected to be preferred as wicketkeeper for England, while Ben Stokes returns from his first season in the IPL having earned the title of Most Valued Player for his performances, though Rising Pune Supergiant could undoubtedly have used his expertise in a low-scoring final that they lost by a single run. In Amla, de Villiers, du Plessis and de Kock South Africa have a wealth of attacking talent with the bat, and in Imran Tahir the world's top ODI bowler, alongside the talented young Kagiso Rabada.
AB de Villiers is expected to make the South Africa team, having been ruled out of the warm-up fixtures against Sussex and Northants due to illness.
Play commences at 1400, 24th May 2017

Good start for South Africa, England 3-1 in the second over after Jason Roy nicks one behind from Wayne Parnell. Home side rebuilding now with Hales and Root in the middle. Many unhappy with the exclusion of Bairstow from the line-up.
Five overs gone, England 31-1.
RE: South Africa's tour of England 2017 - Lord Snooty - 24-05-2017
Hales and Root going well. Hundred up.
Mr Speaktoosoon. Hales out. 100-2
RE: South Africa's tour of England 2017 - Ska'dForLife-WBA - 24-05-2017
Phehlukwayo gets Hales first ball, caught behind. England doing okay though, need Root and Morgan to keep the scoreboard ticking for another ten or twenty overs and then make a big push for 350 or more.
RE: South Africa's tour of England 2017 - themaclad - 24-05-2017
Then Root skies one
RE: South Africa's tour of England 2017 - Ska'dForLife-WBA - 24-05-2017
Awful, awful effort from Root. Stokes survives an LBW shout soon after with an inside edge. Need a solid partnership here from Stokes and Morgan, keep the run-rate up and get to forty overs with plenty of wickets standing.
146-3 after twenty-six.
RE: South Africa's tour of England 2017 - Ska'dForLife-WBA - 24-05-2017
Add two wickets to any score! 190-3 becomes 198-5 as Stokes and Buttler go in quick succession. AB de V out-thinking England. England trying to rebuild with Moeen at the crease, but overs running out.
The onus is on Morgan now, England need to be posting closer to 350 than 300. Ten overs to go, 237-5.
RE: South Africa's tour of England 2017 - themaclad - 24-05-2017
Mo and Mo hitting lots of sixes 300 plus with a couple of overs to go
