England were routed in historic fashion by South Africa, as their tortured Cricket World Cup campaign lurched to a new low in Mumbai with their biggest-ever ODI defeat egame

In desperate need of a big response after their shock loss to Afghanistan last time out, the defending champions plumbed new depths as they were roundly thrashed by 229 runs at the Wankhede Stadium egame

Jos Buttler’s decision to field first in sweltering heat and stifling humidity backfired badly as Heinrich Klaasen’s brutal 61-ball century powered South Africa to 399 for seven egame

England’s reply was wafer thin, 170 for nine in 22 shambolic overs egame

In purely numerical terms it represented England’s worst-ever ODI performance with the ball, shipping one run more than their previous worst against Brendon McCullum’s New Zealand eight years ago, a new nadir outstripping last year’s 221-run hammering by Australia egame

On that occasion, Buttler’s men were mentally checked out as they had celebrated their T20 World Cup win just a few days earlier, but the stakes could not have been greater this time egame

Mark Wood’s figures of seven wicketless overs for 76 took the biscuit egame

But he was hardly alone in being put to the sword, with South Africa’s 13 sixes shared egame between all six English bowlers, and 143 runs raining down in 10 calamitous death overs egame

Klaasen, sapped by dehydration and cramp, was the star of the show with 109 in 67 balls egame

But he enjoyed a stunning stand with Marco Jansen, who cleared the ropes four times as he launched 75 not out from 42 egame

The batting unit made sure to take its share of the shame, knocked over for an embarrassing 170 on the same pitch that had delivered a run-fest in the preceding four hours egame

England have now lost three of their first four games and, although they still have a convoluted and narrow route to the semi-finals, face the prospect of traipsing around India for the next month with their hope and their trophy gone egame

Hard to believe though it was by the end, England enjoyed the perfect start when Reece Topley had danger man Quinton de Kock caught behind off the second ball of the match egame

Even less plausibly, they looked to be regaining a measure of control when Topley returned from a finger injury to strike twice and leave South Africa wobbling at 243 for five in the 37th over egame

Instead, Klaasen led Jansen in a merciless stand of 151 in just 77 deliveries, with boundaries pouring off their bats in every direction egame

England’s team sheet showed a significant response to their Afghanistan upset, with all-rounders Chris Woakes, Liam Livingstone and Sam Curran axed in favour of the fit-again Ben Stokes, David Willey and rookie seamer Gus Atkinson egame

Buttler put his new-look attack to work straight away and was overjoyed to see De Kock nick Topley’s early outswinger egame

That was as good as it got egame

Things veered off course in the seventh over when Topley thrust his left hand out towards a firm drive off his own bowling and damaged his index finger egame

He beat an angry retreat to the pavilion, lashing out at an empty chair, and in his absence England faltered egame

Reeza Hendricks, taking the place of the sick skipper Temba Bavuma, made 85 and Rassie van der Dussen 60 as they took control with a stand of 121 egame

Adil Rashid was also struggling physically, doubled in pain egame between overs as he managed a stomach upset of his own, but the leg spinner still had the nous to prise out both set batters to give England hope egame

After taking running repairs on his finger, Topley came back with a double of his own to see off Aiden Markram and David Miller, but that is where the bleeding really began egame

Klaasen had reached his 50 in 40 balls and doubled his score in half the time, battering Topley out of the attack once and for all with 19 off one over egame

Willey lost his radar totally after a bout of cramp, Wood’s woes continued and Atkinson’s last-gasp dismissal of Klaasen was the hollowest of victories egame

England’s attempts at a dazzling pursuit never once looked like materialising as their top six collapsed in a heap inside 12 overs egame

Jonny Bairstow lofted to deep square leg, Joe Root flicked to the waiting leg slip and Dawid Malan feathered one off his hip egame

Even the returning Stokes had no magic tricks at his disposal and pushed a low catch straight back to Kagiso Rabada egame

The quartet mustered 23 runs egame between them egame

That left Buttler and Harry Brook as the last specialist batters, and unheralded seamer Gerald Coetzee picked up both in the space of three balls: one caught behind, the other pinned lbw by a skidder that kept low egame

A flurry of big hits from Wood, who smashed 43 not out off just 17 balls, and a lively 35 from Atkinson only made the batting failures more profound and the latter’s dismissal ended a horrendous night, with Topley unfit to take guard egame

Jonny May is backing Steve Borthwick to crack the code of rugby after describing England’s head coach as a “genius” in the mold of Alan Turing and Mr Spock egame

England went out on their shields in Saturday’s World Cup semi-final defeat by South Africa, losing 16-15 to a late Handre Pollard penalty, having dominated the reigning champions until the final quarter egame

A heroic performance was the culmination of Borthwick’s opening 10 months in charge, having been parachuted in with the short-term objective of making the team competitive at France 2023 egame

He succeeded by devising a statistics-based approach that almost dethroned the world champions, leaving May to conclude England are in the best possible hands egame

“We’re starting to see what a genius Steve is in terms of how he’s starting to get this team going,” May said egame

“You won’t find a harder working man than Steve and his approach to the game is a little bit like Alan Turing egame

“If anybody is going to crack the code to rugby it will be Steve – he’s getting ever closer each week and good luck to him egame

“He’s got an analytical brain and an evidence-based, scientific, Spock-like approach to the game egame

“I’ve learned a lot from him egame

I’ve been very grateful for all the coaches I’ve had throughout my career and I’ve absorbed everything I possibly can, always trying to learn and be curious egame

“But Steve, with his ways, he’s on to something egame

He’s a young coach and has this unique and different way that he goes about the game egame

“Cracking it is not something I’m interested in doing as the game gets more complicated each week, but he’s obsessed with it so hats off to him egame

”While England can look ahead with optimism, May strongly suspects that their future does not include him egame

The nation’s second-highest try scorer of all-time behind Rory Underwood will almost certainly have played his last Test at this World Cup, Friday’s bronze match against Argentina his final opportunity to pull on a Red Rose jersey egame

The 33-year-old wing was only called up to Borthwick’s squad because of an injury to Anthony Watson, yet he has been a regular starter and was outstanding against South Africa, even winning a jackal penalty egame

“Never say never, but very much in my head now I’m thinking, more than likely that I’ll be done after this,” May said egame

“For me no regrets, what a journey, I wasn’t even going to be on the plane at one point egame

“But I stuck in there and that’s the attitude across the team – we stick in there, we’ve had pretty much everything thrown at us, but we’re starting to find ourselves egame

It’s been everything to me, playing for England, just absolutely everythingJonny May“I’m grateful to have been a part of it and although it probably won’t continue after this World Cup, I feel like I’m connected to this team egame

It’s making my hairs stand up now a little bit egame

“To be connected like that, to be close to the boys and have those relationships, to go through these times with these friends of mine, is incredibly important to me egame

“It’s been everything to me, playing for England, just absolutely everything egame
