England claim another unlikely victory

Very few people saw it coming, but England won the second ODI against South Africa on Sunday to take a 1-0 lead in the series.

England restricted South Africa to just 251 runs from their 50-overs (having scored 241 in 20 overs last week) and then Paul Collingwood and Jonathan Trott led the charge in chasing down the total to clinch a 7-wicket victory.

With no result from the first match, England take the lead in the series with three matches still to play. Can they upset the odds and win the series from here?
