The second Twenty20 International (T20I) between England and South Africa will be played in Durban on Friday.

It’s a must-win game for England if they are to stay in with a chance of winning the three-match series.

Eoin Morgan's side trail 1-0 in the contest, after losing the opening T20 by one run.

South Africa have won their past three T20Is at the Kingsmead ground in Durban and five of the seven completed T20 matches they have played there in total.
