Following Wednesday's high-scoring victory, South Africa remain favourites to beat England in the Sixth match of the one-day series. Graeme Smith's men are 4/6 to win the day/night match at Durban, while England are 11/10.
Man of the moment Kevin Pietersen has overtaken Marcus Trescothick as favourite to top-score for England. He is 7/2 to top-score for England, ahead of Trescothick and skipper Michael Vaughan (4/1). Pietersen leads the England run-scoring with 338 runs at an average of 169 and a strike rate of more than a run a ball.
Durban was the scene of an astonishing turn-around in the Test series. Trescothick, Strauss and Graham Thorpe all scored hundreds as England came back from a substantial first innings deficit to almost snatch victory. Scorecard
Shaun Pollock took four wickets in England's first innings - the all-rounder is 16/1 to be Man of the Match. He has 18 wickets at 21.72 in one-day matches at Kingsmead. Jacques Kallis began a supreme run of post-Christmas form with 162 - he is 7/1 favourite to repeat his Man of the Match Test victory in the one-day game.
