Commentary

  • 44.2
    James Anderson c Quinton de Kock b Duanne Olivier 0 (1)

    OUT! Caught. Duanne Olivier to James Anderson. Short, down leg side on the back foot Steer, outside edge to wicketkeeper, by de Kock.

    South Africa square up the series. Jimmy comes out and feathers a catch through to the keeper to give South Africa victory by a huge 340 runs. The visitors have been the better team in all aspects and they thoroughly deserved the win inside four days. It was the bowlers today who were outstanding and from ball one England were troubled by Vernon Philander (3-24) and Morne Morkel, who was very good but went wicket-less.

    England though still have the same problems with the top order and it might be something that they look at going into the next Test at The Oval along with the batting collapses they keep having. The series has now sprung to life and all eyes will be on the match on Thursday to see if England make changes or they stick with the same team.
