PORT ELIZABETH, South Africa - England opener Alex Hales fell one short of a second one-day International century as his team completed a comfortable five-wicket victory over South Africa on Saturday.

The hosts won the toss in the second game of the series and posted 262 for seven in their 50 overs on a slow wicket that produced nothing like the run-fest of Bloemfontein three days earlier.
