South Africa v England 11:16 - Dec 26 with 16398 viewsexiledclaseboy

First test now. Saffers 97/4 just after lunch. England won the toss. Sam Curran does have a welcome habit of taking wickets in the first over of a spell. Done it twice today.

Root getting some turn here.....2nd wicket for him thanks to acrobatic Pope at short leg!!!
These new boys are all adding something


Paul Collingwood has been working a lot with Oli Pope on his close to the wicket fielding. Looks like it's paying off big time.

Everyday above ground ... Is a good day! 😎

Buttler’s a good keeper but in no kind of form with the bat. Wouldn’t be surprised see Foakes get the nod for the two games in Sri Lanka in March.


England are going to need a wicket keeper who is excellent keeping wicket close to the stumps in Sri Lanka. Foakes is that man.

FFS ... SA making Root look like Shane Warne. These wickets have taken Root's Test bowling average down below his batting average.

It looks like the ghost of Hanse Cronje is alive and well in SA. Check to see if FAF is wearing a leather jacket later on.

Yep, I'm watching.

I actually wrote that as Quinton de Kock got out with that sh1te shot.

The Hansie Cronje quip was meant as a joke, but as it's Sunday I'll retract it. 😇

Slightly off topic.

This is an odd one for tomorrow morning

Well that's the series tied up.

SA will have to bat better than at any time so far and probably take up five sessions to get near the England first innings total.

Superb pace on him. The coaching staff have tweaked his action and run up in recent times and it’s paying off.

Do you pull out tonight 400+ lead or bat on tomorrow

For me I would put them in for 4 overs tonight

You can see their intent by the way stokes played.

Ever since my son was... never conceived, because I've never had consensual sex without money involved... I've always kind of looked at you as... a thing, that I could live next to... in accordance with state laws.

An easy decision for me.

Bat until lunchtime tomorrow and SA cannot win.
Declare tonight and there is a chance they can chase down the runs, albeit a very small one.

England don’t need to win the match for a series win.

Five down chasing runs so it may not come down to a declaration. Nicely set up for Buttler to go into one day mode here.
