Heinrich Klaasen completed his fifth World Cup century for South Africa. His 67-ball 109 pushed South Africa to 399-7 in 50 overs after England won the toss and elected to bowl. He and Marco Jansen shared a sixth-wicket partnership of 151 in 12.4 overs. This was the highest score allowed by England in ODI cricket. This match was a fast scoring ground, with a poor pitch, and if England achieve this target, it will be the second highest chase success rate in ODIs. Here's how to watch this important match live and for free from anywhere using a VPN.

If England fail to beat South Africa at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai, their chances of reaching the semi-finals of the Cricket World Cup will be greatly narrowed. To do so, they may need to win all their remaining group matches. That includes a match against an Indian team that is busy bulldozing all of its opponents.

In the last World Cup, New Zealand and Pakistan both suffered three losses in their group leagues, with New Zealand finishing fourth in net goals-against average to advance to the semifinals, while Pakistan missed out. If England were to lose to the Proteas, they would have lost three of their first four games.

Both teams come into this match on the back of humiliating defeats. South Africa's reputation for losing games from victory was rekindled when they allowed 105 runs in nine overs for the eighth and ninth wickets after pushing the Netherlands to 140-7. It was the Netherlands' first World Cup win against a Test team in their fourth World Cup.

Afghanistan also earned their first win against a Test team at the World Cup when they defeated England last Sunday. England made a selection error and chose seam bowling all-rounders such as the in-form Chris Woakes on a spinner-favorable surface, sacrificing Moeen Ali.

South Africa can withstand defeat in Mumbai better than England, but they will still lose two games to two. It is not an easy position to be in. They too have yet to play India.
