England found themselves setting a total again after South Africa won the toss and chose to bowl in the one-day international series decider at Newlands.
After a morning shower, play was set to get under way on time - with the teams level at 2-2, going into this final match of five.
England, who narrowly failed to defend 262 all out on Friday night in Johannesburg, stuck with the same team.
South Africa made one change, bringing Rilee Rossouw into the middle order in a like-for-like swap as they left out JP Duminy.
