South Africa's Maharaj, Markram Punish England in Seven-Wicket Win

Keshav Maharaj took four wickets for 22 runs, achieving the best ODI bowling figures by a South African spinner against England, leading to a seven-wicket victory.

  • On September 2, 2025, South Africa secured a seven-wicket win over England at Headingley in the opening match of the ODI series.
  • England's batting collapsed after a promising start, partly due to lack of 50-over preparation and depleted training following The Hundred.
  • Keshav Maharaj took 4 wickets for 22 runs and Wiaan Mulder took 3 for 33, while Aiden Markram scored 86 runs off 55 balls.
  • England was bowled out for 131 runs in 24.3 overs with Jamie Smith top-scoring at 54, while South Africa chased 137-3 in 20.5 overs.
  • South Africa's victory put them ahead 1-0 in the three-match series and ended Harry Brook's unbeaten run as England's white-ball skipper, which had lasted for six matches.
