This has turned into a great bowing pitch. I fancy us to get them all out for < 200 in the last innings. 2 days, 400+ needed. Can’t see anything but an England win, here
Think I'd have declared after Woakes got out. Keep your bowlers fresh. Although I suspect Root wants a 50
We ve got 2 days to bowl them out so no need to declare really . They can all have a good night's sleep and start fresh tomorrow
Broad has to be the best number 11 in Test match history. How many 11s have a Test high score of 169?
Think we can take the draw out of the possible final outcomes Still got their best batsman to come in yet - will start to worry if they get to the end of today with only 3 or less wickets down
Good spell this, hopefully we can wrap this up before the end of the day. Think they can play on til 4.30pm our time so plenty left yet.
Should be able to. Can't see South Africa coming back now, but de Kock is a great player, so you never know.
I believe they can play until 4:30 with the extra half an hour, if either captain and the umpires agree that half an hour is likely to finish the game. But I could have it wrong, it could be that the normal time is 3:30 and they can go to 4:00.
Wonderful comeback after the first test. Some fantastic young players in this squad. The future is bright
93-8 was a collapse of English proportions. It didn't look like it would be over today for a long period of day 4.
