Rain delays start of South Africa vs. England ODI

The start of the fifth and final one-day international between South Africa and England on Friday has been delayed due to rain, as well as an outfield which has become waterlogged after downpours during the days leading up to the match. The first match in the series, which England leads 2-1, was washed out in Johannesburg. If the match does not go ahead, England would collect their first one-day series win in four visits to South Africa in the post-isolation period since the mid-1990s.
