South African left arm fast bowler D Parnell has taken five wickets as New Zealand team returned to pavilion for 214 runs on the board in the third ODI match of the ICC Champions Trophy at Centurion on Thursday.

Earlier in the day, South Africa skipper G Smith won the toss and elected to field first in a do-or-die match. South Africa had lost their first match to Sri Lanka and they will have to win this match to keep their hopes alive to make into the semifinals.

New Zealand got to a bad start as Kiwi opener J Ryder (8) lost his wicket with just 12 runs on the board. The middle order of Kiwi team once again collapsed. B McCullum
(44) and L Taylor (72) helped New Zealand to put up a decent total on the board.

D Steyn and R Merwe took two wickets each for South Africa.
