Back of the envelope maths says that for any score set between 120 and 135, England need to chase it down in the 18th over to overtake SA's NRR.

Kinda malding that I decided 120 was the lower bound for the score when I decided to work it out and then they lost 5/0 just to make me do it again

It’s not just that, you’ve got to take into account SA losing which reduces their NRR anyway.
I should imagine they’ll be looking to finish this quickly and get above WI NRR (which will also reduce significantly even if they win).

The reason overtaking SA's NRR in a win matters is that it means England definitely go through regardless of the SA-WI match.
