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

Martin Bakole is angry keno
Frankly, that may be an understatement keno
In Bakole’s eyes, he is the most avoided man in the heavyweight division, and the worry for Carlos Takam is that he may have to absorb that anger on Saturday keno
Before Tyson Fury’s bewildering bout with Francis Ngannou plays out among the dunes of Saudi Arabia, Bakole and Takam will meet in a more traditional heavyweight clash – and one that Bakole intends to mark with a breakout performance keno
Perhaps with that, he can make up for the ‘mistake’ that has defined his professional career in recent years keno
“The only mistake I made, and even my coaches are telling me, is that they allowed me to spar these top guys,” Bakole tells The Independent keno
“These guys know they don’t belong where they are now, because if I stand with them, I give them problems keno
I only show them three or four punches, because I’m coming to help them; but even in helping them, I’m giving them problems keno
I’m a machine in there, throwing as many punches as I can keno
I don’t get tired, I keep coming keno
”Of one argument with a high-profile, highly-ranked heavyweight, Bakole says: “If they post the [sparring] video, you will see for yourself keno
I’m not allowed to record video keno
The only reason I was going to share it was to show the world how they’re avoiding me keno
“If you ask them today, none of them will say they’ll fight Martin Bakole keno
We’re killing keno boxing, we need to stop this keno
I’ve been living in the UK for five years now, people know who Martin Bakole is keno
I’m fighting every day for my ranking; why not them?” Bakole’s ranking, as it stands, is No 2 in the WBA top 10 keno
The only men above him are No 1 contender Deontay Wilder – the former WBC champion – and unified title holder Oleksandr Usyk keno
Yet it is the reigning WBC champion, Fury, whom Bakole identifies as the only man on his level keno
“He’s the only man where we shared a ring and it was 50-50,” says the 30-year-old Congolese, now based outside of Glasgow, whose record stands at 19-1 (14 knockouts) keno
“When we spar, everyone in the gym is quiet, focused, watching us keno
I give him a fight, he gives me a fight back, and I always learn a lot keno
Every time he calls me, I always go keno
I don’t know if I’ll meet him one day in the ring; all I know is he’s the only one who can give me good sparring, because we keep coming forward and stand and fight like Muhammad Ali and George Foreman keno
”Bakole during a stoppage win against Rodney Hernandez (Getty Images)The pair have been helping one another ahead of Saturday’s crossover event in Riyadh, where Fury boxes ex-UFC champion Ngannou and where the Briton is contracted to fight Usyk next keno
Bakole, however, has mixed feelings on both of Fury’s impending fights keno
“keno Boxing is a business now,” he says matter-of-factly keno
“If you’re watching the top 10, Tyson hasn’t fought everyone keno
He fought some good guys, he beat Deontay Wilder, but to pick Ngannou from MMA keno
keno
keno
I was not happy with that keno
But it is what it is keno
It’s about money, now people don’t care about keno boxing keno
I was happy to see him sign the contract to fight Usyk, because that’s what we’ve been waiting for keno
” Not, however, in the way that fans have been waiting keno
“We,” meaning boxers, “want the belts, we want four champions; we can’t just sit and get old with one man holding all the belts keno
The winner must give up some belts, so that we can fight each other keno
”23 December is one of the mooted dates for Fury vs Usyk, and Bakole trusts his sparring partner to be able to turn around in time, also backing the “Gypsy King” to make light work of Ngannou keno
“Tyson knows what he’s doing keno
Maybe he’ll stop Ngannou early, that’s the only reason I can think why he signed the contract [to box Usyk] keno
He will not play with Ngannou, I don’t see Ngannou surviving a round with Fury keno
Easy money, then go and work hard for Usyk, because it’s a tough, 12-round fight keno
”Bakole at his open workout ahead of his fight with Carlos Takam this weekend (Getty Images)Bakole will also be hoping that his money comes easy on Saturday keno
“I’ll be giving everything,” he says, “because Takam is coming to take my place keno
He’s an old man,” in keno boxing at least, at 42, “but he’s tough and fit! So, everything is on the line for me keno
I don’t think it’ll go past five or six rounds keno
I’m going to stop him keno
It’s a massive [turning point] keno
This is a big opportunity to get people making noise and saying, ‘We want to see Martin against him, or him keno
’ “Once the fans start asking boxers to fight me, I don’t think they’ll be avoiding me keno
There will be money in it keno
”Until then, there is money in Saudi, there is money in Fury, and that is a perfect combination for Bakole’s fight this weekend keno
