    Chris Morris smashed 62 off 38 balls to see South Africa to a thrilling one-wicket win over England in Johannesburg, with the series now level at 2-2 with one to play. Dylan Strome Jersey . Joe Root (109) hit his eighth ODI hundred and second-straight in the series, helping England recover from 108-6 after a collapse of 4-13, and set South Africa 263 to win.England seemed to have a series win within their grasp, reducing the hosts to 210-8 in reply, before Morris blasted South Africa to victory, taking the series to a decider in Cape Town on Sunday.South Africa won the toss and somewhat surprisingly chose to bowl first on a pitch they smacked 439 on when last playing at The Wanderers.An early breakthrough, Jason Roy top-edging Kagiso Rabada (4-45) to fine leg, went some way to vindicating their decision, before Alex Hales hit 50 in a partnership worth 69 with Root for the second wicket.Looking to take the attack to leg-spinner Imran Tahir (3-46) like they had done successfully in the first three ODIs, Hales perished at deep midwicket when attempting a slog-sweep for six.Tahir then took two wickets in his next over - Eoin Morgan cutting to point and Ben Stokes edging to Hashim Amla, who took a fine catch to his right at slip. Watch this brilliant catch from Hashim Amla to claim the wicket of Ben Stokes Jos Buttler and Moeen Ali too fell for single-figure scores, both to Kyle Abbott (2-57), the former top-edging an attempted hook onto his helmet which looped back to the bowler, and Amla taking another fine catch to dismiss the latter.With England reeling at 108-6 at the halfway point of their innings, Root put on a crucial 95 for the seventh wicket with Woakes (33).Root brought up the England 200, and his century an over either side of Woakes wicket - top-edging Rabada behind - in the 42nd. Joe Root was in sensational form, hitting his second straight century in the series A useful cameo from Adil Rashid (39 off 26 balls) helped England up to 262 before he was the last wicket to fall, a tiring Root having scooped to fine leg, and Stuart Broad picking out long-on.Broads return with the ball got off to a better start, bowling Hashim Amla in the first over as the opener chopped onto his stumps.The in-form Quinton de Kock (27) - scorer of two centuries in the series - and Faf du Plessis (34) recovered from the early blow, before a break for bad light due to a floodlight failure seemed to disrupt the South African innings. Stuart Broad celebrates the wicket of Hashim Amla in his first over back in ODI cricket Stokes (2-46) and Woakes (1-42) both struck with the score on 63, Stokes benefitting from another drag on by De Kock, and Woakes sending the stumps splattering when clean bowling Du Plessis with a beauty.Drops of JP Duminy (31) by Hales on one and AB de Villiers (36) by Roy on nine, as well as a strong lbw shout against Duminy being turned down, denied England further breakthroughs and De Villiers in particular cashed in after his reprieve.He blasted Broad (1-55) for a four next ball and then a straight six as the seamer struggled following his early wicket. Chris Woakes celebrates after running out AB de Villiers Woakes eventually dismissed the ever-dangerous De Villiers, running out the South African skipper with a direct-hit and Duminy departed soon after, with no doubt this time as he was trapped lbw by Rashid on the back foot.A couple of terrific catches - Reece Topley (2-39) off his own bowling to remove Farhaan Behardien (38) and Morgan snaffling David Wiese (21) at cover off Stokes - saw England move closer to a series-clinching win. Chris Morris hits out in his match-winning innings Topley removed Rabada for a duck - caught by Root at slip - but Rashid then dropped Morris in the deep in the same over.It proved to be a costly error as Morris struck four sixes and three fours on his way to his match-winning fifty. Although he fell - bowled by Rashids googly - with one run still needed for victory, Tahir tucked away the winning runs next ball.Watch highlights of a thrilling fourth ODI between South Africa and England at 10pm on Sky Sports 3, then join us for the series decider in Cape Town from 7.30am on Sky Sports 2 on Sunday. Brendan Perlini Jersey . The quest begins with what is supposed to be an easy one, although Germany has traditionally been a stubborn opponent to Canadian teams at international tournaments. Mario Kempe Jersey . A knee to the thigh might have stung him the most, but his sixth straight double-double made up for the brief burst of pain. http://www.coyotesauthority.com/authentic-thomas-steen-coyotes-jersey/ ;. In what the team had called a retirement, Ryan said Thursday that he is resigning as chief executive of the Rangers in a move effective at the end of this month. Gidron Pope - Rangpur RidersWe are not going to see anyone more powerful than this kid in this World Cup or the next one , was how Ian Bishop described Gidron Pope following his blistering knocks at the top of the order in West Indies title-winning run at the Under-19 World Cup in Bangladesh earlier this year. The 19-year-old opener struck 232 runs in six innings at an average and strike rate of 38.66 and 107.90 respectively. He is also a livewire on the field, and can pitch in with right-arm offspin.Mohammad Shahzad - Rangpur RidersPlaced ninth on the ICC rankings in T20 internationals, Afghanistans Mohammad Shahzad owns the seventh-highest score and second-highest by an Associate player in T20 internationals. Shahzad is not just about brutal leg-side hoicks and the whippy helicopter shots. He is equally capable of lofting the ball in the V. With Sharjeel Khan not receiving a NOC from the PCB and asked to train for the New Zealand tour instead, Shahzad is expected to be Rangpurs key figure.Tymal Mills - Chittagong VikingsTymal Mills is among the most exciting T20 players in the world. He can bowl yorkers or bouncers at speeds north of 90mph. Ask Graeme Swann or Chris Gayle: A 94.5mph bouncer smacked Swanns arm and sent him to the hospital in 2013, while more recently at the NatWest T20 Blast, Mills yorked Gayle with a 93.3mph thunderbolt. He also has a deceptive slower ball, which will probably be more crucial on the sluggish surfaces in Bangladesh.Having prematurely retired from first-class cricket because of a congenital back condition, Mills hopes to establish himself as a potent force in T20s. He is set to play for Auckland in the Super Smash and Quetta Gladiators in the Pakistan Super League later this season.Nicholas Poorann - Khulna TitansWicketkeeper-batsman Nicholas Pooran was all of 17 when he flayed a 24-ball 54 against Guyana Amazon Warriors that had in their ranks Sunil Narine, Veerasammy Permaul, James Franklin and Mohammed Hafeez, in CPL 2013. Christian Fischer Jersey. . His breakthrough CPL season, however, arrived in 2016 when he made 217 runs in eight innings at a strike rate close to 200. He went on to make his T20 debut for West Indies in the UAE in September this year, but struggled against spin - or the lack of it - in conditions not conducive to big-hitting. The BPL now gives him a chance to improve his game on this front.Evin Lewis - Dhaka DynamitesAfter scoring his first T20 hundred - 101 not out off 65 balls - in the 2015-16 Bangladesh Premier League, Evin Lewis said: Chris Gayle is my favorite. I hit a lot of sixes, big sixes like him... its a dream for me to open with him, and hopefully that will happen. He then replaced his injured idol and struck a 49-ball century, the sixth-fastest in T20Is in Lauderhill in August this year. The knock was studded with nine sixes, including five in a Stuart Binny over.Liam Dawson - Rangpur Riders A last-minute addition to the Rangpur squad, England allrounder Liam Dawson struck in each of his first three overs on T20I debut against Sri Lanka in front of his home crowd in Southampton. His figures of 3 for 27 turned out to be the best by a England spinner on T20I debut. In addition to bowling left-arm spin, Dawson can bat anywhere in the line-up. A few sparkling performances in the BPL can help him catch up with Adil Rashid, Englands first-choice spinner, in limited-overs cricket. Cheap Soccer Jerseys Authentic Wholesale Hockey Jerseys Nike NFL Jerseys China Cheap Nike MLB Jerseys China Wholesale Baseball Jerseys China Wholesale College Jerseys Cheap Jerseys From China Wholesale Jerseys Near Me Cheap Jerseys Online Cheap NFL Jerseys Authentic Cheap Nike NFL Jerseys Authentic Cheap Soccer Jerseys China Cheap NCAA Jerseys Authentic Cheap Nike NBA Jerseys Cheap NHL Jerseys Authentic MLB Jerseys China Cheap Jerseys From China Cheap NFL Throwback Jerseys Cheap Nike NFL Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys China ' ' '
