Bell and Prior will start the chase for England.
Welcome to our coverage of the second ODI between England and South Africa. England who beat the Proteas in the first ODI by 20 runs will not be complacent and will look forward to keep the momentum going. Pietersen marshalled his resources well against a formidable looking South African side to take a 1-0 lead in the series. England who were termed as underdogs prior to the series rocked the South Africans who were tipped to dominate the series after the Test series win. South Africa have been put on the back foot but they wont slip further and will come up with bight performances in the matches to come. England will be ready for the counter attack with Harmison in great touch. Pietersen will have to employ some new plans as he did in the first ODI which helped the Poms outclass the Proteas. The battle will be interesting as England will try to take a 2-0 lead while the Proteas will look to square off things in the second ODI.

Welcome to our coverage of the second ODI between England and South Africa. England who beat the Proteas in the first ODI by 20 runs will not be complacent and will look forward to keep the momentum going. Pietersen marshalled his resources well against a formidable looking South African side to take a 1-0 lead in the series. England who were termed as underdogs prior to the series rocked the South Africans who were tipped to dominate the series after the Test series win. South Africa have been put on the back foot but they wont slip further and will come up with bight performances in the matches to come. England will be ready for the counter attack with Harmison in great touch. Pietersen will have to employ some new plans as he did in the first ODI which helped the Poms outclass the Proteas. The battle will be interesting as England will try to take a 2-0 lead while the Proteas will look to square off things in the second ODI.
