Commentary

  • 77.1
    Anrich Nortje c Jos Buttler b Mark Wood 4 (10)

    OUT! Caught. Mark Wood to Anrich Nortje. Back of a length, down leg side on the back foot glancing, Gloved to wicketkeeper, by Buttler.

    Another strangle down the legside which is backed up by the technology. Good use of the review system from Root to wrap up the game and the series. 3-1 in South Africa is a brilliant effort from this young England side.
    Super day of Test cricket which see-sawed both ways. First England were on top then South Africa battled back and asked the English camp plenty of questions. Once the partnership between the impressive Rassie van der Dussen and Faf du Plessis was broken though the rest fell like a pack of cards.
    Hard fought series between two tough teams and now it is all eyes on the white ball arena which starts on the 4th February.

    Beuran Hendricks Run Out Dominic Sibley 4 (9)

    OUT! Run Out. Joe Root to Anrich Nortje. Off break length ball, outside off stump down the track driving, to mid on, fielded by Sibley, by Buttler. Things go from bad to worse for the Proteas. Hug mix-up in the middle as Nortje sprints for the single but his partner is ball watching. Both end up at one end with the ball going to the other.

    OUT! Caught. Mark Wood to Quinton de Kock. Length ball, outside off stump on the front foot Slog, mis-timed in the air uncontrolled to mid off, by Woakes. That's the wicket England were after. It was always going to be nervy while de Kock was at the crease, especially when he's swinging the bat. One shot too mamy though and Woakes takes a simple chance.

    Vernon Philander c Jos Buttler b Mark Wood 10 (11)

    OUT! Caught. Mark Wood to Vernon Philander. Back of a length, outside off stump on the back foot pulling, Gloved to wicketkeeper, by Buttler. Not the way Vernon Philander would have wanted to go out. Strangled down the legside as the ball brushes the glove. Every single person at the ground stands and applauds a great career. Nice touch also from the England players to go up to him and shake his hand. What a man.
