England vs South Africa 2017: 2nd ODI, 5 talking points

#2 Liam Plunkett impresses

Plunkett pocketed the deadly de Villiers to stall South Africa's progress in the chase

England went into the game without Chris Woakes but Liam Plunkett stepped up yet again for the hosts. The quickie has equalled Hasan Ali as the top wicket-taker in 2017 and has had quite a few variations to his armoury, making him a dangerous bowler to face on two paced wickets.

Plunkett got rid of Faf du Plessis quite early in the Proteas' innings but his real moment came in another spell.

Knowing that the square boundaries were big and the short ball held up, Plunkett kept hitting the deck hard and was eventually rewarded with the big scalp of AB de Villiers. He completed his spell with the wicket of Farhaan Behardien to finish with figures of 3/64.
