Nicely poised for day three. Need an early wicket or two
well after todays play we should be going 1 up in the series .bad luck for Steyn though ,dont wish injury on any player ,even if i dont like him.
Indeed. England to build a big lead tomorrow, let Bairstow and Stokes got out and have some fun and then have 4 to 4.5 sessions to bowl SA out.
Kudos to Stuart Broad in this test. Stepped up in Anderson's absence and appears to be gaining confidence with the bat again.
Strong start to their second innings from SA...
Safe to assume they're playing to win rather than for the draw...
Steve Finn is a class act when he's on song. Good to see he's near on back to his best after those years in the doldrums.
also known as the Saker years![]()
Hopefully the weather does not intervene...
Weather set fair for tomorrow apparently so just the six wickets to take. Should be England's to win
chatting to someone out there theres an outside chance of thunder showers later in the day as there was today, today they just passed by hopefully game will be done by that time tomorrow anyway
Done by tea hopefully
Saffers are playing with very little confidence, important for England not to allow them to develop any tomorrow, sooner theyre bowled out the better, real shame Bairstow gave AB de V a life this evening
