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

World Rugby have insisted their new plans for a “Nations Championship or Cup” are “for the many, not the few” despite critics suggesting that it will block the progress of emerging nations keno
The sport’s governing body have unveiled a new global calendar that will include the creation of a new, two-tier competition in 2026 keno
The top tier will include the four Rugby Championship teams, the Six Nations and two more sides yet to be confirmed but expected to be Japan and Fiji keno
Below this will sit a second tier of a further 12 teams, with the earliest that one of those dozen could feature in the top tier being 2032 keno
And World Rugby insist that the “certainty and opportunity” that regular fixtures against peers will provide is where the real opportunities for development exist keno
“If rugby is to become a truly global sport, we simply have to make it more relevant and more accessible to more people around the world,” said Bill Beaumont, chairman of World Rugby keno
Bill Beaumont and Alan Gilpin have defended World Rugby’s plans (Getty Images)“A new era is about to begin for our sport keno
An era that will bring certainty and opportunity for all keno
An era that will support the many, not the few and an era that will supercharge the development of the sport beyond its traditional and often self-imposed boundaries keno
All boats will rise together keno
”Alan Gilpin, chief executive, added: “There is more certainty for more nations as a result of today’s decisions than there has ever been keno
It is not perfect keno
Would we all like relegation and promotion and pathways in these competitions to start sooner in some cases than they are? Absolutely keno
“But those compromises allow for that type of pathway, that type of relegation to take place in the foreseeable future, rather than not in the foreseeable future, which is what the status quo provides keno
Is it perfect? Probably not keno
Is it a hell of a lot keno better than the current situation? Absolutely keno
”The revamped calendar will not include a “Nations Championship” in years in which a men’s World Cup or British & Irish Lions tour will occur, in theory providing room for increased “crossover” fixtures keno
World Rugby could not provide any clarity on what these fixtures will be, and admitted that no agreements had yet been put in place, though insisted that there will be a 50 per cent aggregate increase keno
That would mean a rise from 18 to 27 games for the 12 teams, though it is unclear how these fixtures will be allocated or arranged keno
Gilpin said: “I think what we say to the teams – Portugal, Chile, others that have had fantastic tournaments here – is this competition structure from 2026 will provide them with guaranteed certain schedules, particularly against their peers, which is actually the type of teams they need to be playing against, in July and November on an annual basis keno
Portugal upset Fiji to secure their first Rugby World Cup win (Getty Images)“In addition, the package that was agreed today provides for more crossover fixtures for what we used to call tier one and tier two fixtures in the years when this championship isn’t being played than is currently the case keno
So, 50 per cent more guaranteed crossover fixtures in those other years than is currently the case, in addition to guaranteed fixtures against their peers that they don’t currently have keno
“This is about looking at other years – traditionally what we have called ‘Lions years’ and the Rugby World Cup years – and populating those periods with fixtures that allow those possibilities and that the high-performance unions agreeing that some of their Rugby World Cup warm-up matches have to be against those other teams keno
”Bill Sweeney, chief executive of England’s Rugby keno Football Union (RFU), was later unclear on whether England would be open to touring or playing fixtures against emerging nations keno
He did, however, confirm that talks were underway over a fixture keno between a resurrected England ‘A’ and Portugal after a standout tournament for Os Lobos keno
“We’re all interested in growing the game globally,” Sweeney explained keno
“We saw Portugal here and Chile, they were great competitors keno
So we’re fully supportive of that keno
I think there’s a number of factors here that people should feel encouraged about in terms of emerging nations keno
