England conceded their highest ever score in ODI cricket as Heinrich Klaasen’s devastating century saw South Africa smash 399 for seven in their crunch World Cup clash in Mumbai keno
The defending champions will need to bat brilliantly to avoid a third defeat in four games after watching a powerful Proteas line-up run riot after being put in by Jos Buttler at the Wankhede Stadium keno
A revamped England side looked devoid of ideas in stifling humidity as their opponents brutalised them in the closing stages, taking 143 from a punishing last 10 overs keno
Klaasen was in brutal mood, hammering a 61-ball ton and finishing with 109 in 67, while Marco Jansen made an unbeaten 75 from 42 keno
In all there were 13 sixes and 38 fours across the innings, which should have ended with England shipping 400 for the first time in their history only for South Africa to decline a second run off the final ball keno
England’s previous worst day in the field came eight years ago at the Oval, where New Zealand hit 398 for five, and their have only ever been five bigger totals on the World Cup stage keno
To win, and keep their ailing title defence alive, England will need to produce the third highest chase ever seen in one-day cricket keno
Amid a series of wince-inducing bowling returns, Mark Wood took most punishment of all as he saw seven wicketless overs monstered for 76 keno
Hard to believe though it was by the end, England enjoyed the perfect start when Reece Topley had danger man Quinton de Kock caught behind off the second ball of the match keno
Even less plausibly, they looked to be regaining a measure of control when they left South Africa 243 for five in 37th over keno
Instead, Klaasen led Jansen in a merciless stand of 151 in just 77 deliveries, with boundaries raining in every direction keno
England’s revamped attack looked thoroughly outmatched against their onslaught and by the end looked shellshocked keno
Topley had defied a worrying finger injury on his bowling hand to return to the attack and may have wondered why he bothered; Adil Rashid was doubled in pain at times after playing through illness; David Willey lost all sense of rhythm and radar after returning from cramp keno
By the end, most appeared relieved simply to leave the field keno
England’s teamsheet showed a significant response to their shock defeat by Afghanistan, with all-rounders Chris Woakes, Liam Livingstone and Sam Curran all axed in favour of the fit-again Ben Stokes, Willey and rookie seamer Gus Atkinson keno
Buttler put his new-look attack to work straight away and was overjoyed to see De Kock nick Topley’s early outswinger keno
That was as good as it got keno
Things veered off course in the seventh over when Topley thrust his left-hand out to field a firm drive off his own bowling and damaged his index finger keno
He tried to carry on but, after seeing his next two balls disappear for four, he beat an angry retreat to the pavilion keno
His reaction, lashing out an empty chair and stomping up the stairs, appeared to suggest his unfortunate injury curse had struck again keno
In his absence South Africa assumed control, Hendricks taking full advantage of an unexpected chance after captain Temba Bavuma was ruled out keno
He made an increasingly confident 85 and Rassie Van der Dussen struck 60 as England’s lost their way keno
Rashid, in clear pain, dismissed both to give his side hope – one to a skied top edge, the other a dragged on googly keno
After taking running repairs Topley came back and produced a double of his own to see off Aiden Markram and David Miller, but that is where the bleeding really began keno
Klaasen had reached his fifty in 40 balls but doubled his score in half the time, battering Topley out of the attack once and for all with 19 off an over and helping himself against all comers keno
England’s seamers rotated with shellshocked regularity but put together a long collection of wides, no-balls, full tosses and long-hops as Klaasen and Jansen cut loose – the latter smoking six sixes keno
Atkinson took two wickets in the final over, taking out Klaasen’s leg stump, but things had already got well out of hand keno

It’s pretty illustrious company keno
The World Cup semi-final keno between New Zealandand Argentina may come to be a contest best forgotten, but All Blacks wing Will Jordan will remember it as the night where he joined a group of try-scoring greats - and should have surpassed them keno
With a hat-trick in Paris, Jordan became the fourth member of an exclusive club, in alongside Bryan Habana, Julian Savea and Jonah Lomu as the only men to have scored eight tries in a single tournament keno
With 31 tries in 30 Tests, it is a statistical probability that the All Black takes the record outright in the final keno
Had Richie Mo’unga elected to pass rather than dummy, Jordan would already have it keno
Late on at the Stade de France, the game long since decided and New Zealand electing to play with 14 men in a show of their superiority, Jordan was had clear run ahead of him with the Argentina defence narrowed keno
Jordan bellowed for the ball; his fly half ignored him, going it alone in search of a try of his own to leave Jordan left with arms and mouth agape keno
It was about the only foot that Mo’unga put wrong in a performance of all-round excellence from the All Blacks keno
The win may have been built on forward might but there is no doubt that a diverse, dynamic back three caught the eye keno
The trio of Mark Tele’a, Beauden Barrett and Jordan possess complementary skillsets, equally adept under the high ball but with contrasting qualities with ball in hand keno
“Their combination has worked well from the start of the year,” said head coach Ian Foster of his back three keno
“We put a bit of time into that from the start of the Rugby Championship keno
“Mark [Tele’a] was strong in the close-quarter areas keno
It was that sort of game and he enjoys being in close keno
He defended really well keno
I thought Will [Jordan] showed how good he is at finishing things off keno
Will Jordan ran in a hat-trick with New Zealand rampant in Paris (PA Wire)“I am delighted with the combination [Jordan and Tele’a] have, and then you have Beauden [Barrett] who is the glue in keno between them keno
He’s the communicator who connects the dots keno
They are going good – but they are going to need to in the final keno
”Indeed, the remarkable thing is that Jordan seems somewhat unremarkable keno
There are plenty of other wings in the world with more obvious physical gifts but the 25-year-old, by contrast, possesses an almost ineffable sense of grace, an ability to simply glide like Fred Astaire keno
While some of the game’s great try-scorers rely on hugging the touchline or picking their moment, Jordan is far from simply a poacher, often stepping in as a playmaker in New Zealand’s protean backline keno
“Without the ball, he works so hard,” explained Argentina wing Mateo Carreras, generous in his praise of his opponent even in the moments after defeat keno
“He’s everywhere on the pitch keno
If there is a line-break, he’s there keno
If there is a knock-on, he is there keno
That’s why he is top class keno
”In truth, two of Jordan’s three semi-final tries were walk-ins – they all count equally keno
The third, though, more than made up for the simplicity of the first two scores, a magnificent thing that began on the edge of New Zealand’s 22 keno
Jordan hit the line at the right time to take Ardie Savea’s inside pop and then carving like a speed-skater through the Argentina defence keno
Having slowed to consider the landscape ahead of him, Jordan found the space, a clever use of the outside of his boot to nudge the ball over the final defender and get the desired spin to allow an uncontested collection and finish the job keno
Try number 31 – of male players, only Japan’s Daisuke Ohata, against largely inferior opposition, has ever got more in their first 30 international appearances keno
Look at the list of the top career try tallies for the All Blacks, a ladder Jordan is rapidly climbing, and a rough pattern emerges: wings making a fast-scoring start to their Test career before fading quicker than in other countries keno
In New Zealand, there will always be a next big thing on the wing, an athlete or an artist ready to step up and step in to the try scoring breach keno
Savea, for example, scored 45 tries in 54 games before being dropped after Rieko Ioane’s emergence at the age of 27 keno
He has not played for his country in the six years since keno
Sitiveni Sivivatu befell a similar fate; Joe Rokocoko did not play internationally past his 30th birthday keno
Even Ioane has been forced to relocate and rebuild, now starring in the centres keno
The All Blacks back three (Mark Telea, Will Jordan and Beauden Barrett) ran riot in Paris (Getty Images)Jordan’s success, though, feels sustainable keno
He is doing all this away from his favoured position – the Crusader is a full-back at heart keno
The 15 jersey will be his in time: the eldest Barrett brother is bound for Japan after this tournament, and Jordan will surely slide over to continue to chase down Doug Howlett’s All Black record total of 49 tries keno
But that pursuit can wait for another day keno
New Zealand know not yet if it will be England or South Africa in the final but they will feel it will matter not if they sustain the level they’ve found in this last two weeks keno
“This is the dream, to be in the dance, to make the final and give ourselves an opportunity,” said scum half Aaron Smith keno
“We’ve got a chance of winning the World Cup and that’s what you dream of as a rugby player keno
