And that's that for South Africa's first innings in Johannesburg.

Ben Stokes teases Morne Morkel into a wild drive and the edge flies through to Alastair Cook at first slip as the Proteas finish on 313.

Every South African batsman made double figures, but none made 50. Wasteful.

England will be out for their first innings soon, which you can follow on our live text and listen to TMS here.

Tony Pulis has some bad news for Baggies fans as he rules James Morrison out of Saturday's game against Southampton.

The midfielder appeared to pull his hamstring as he was taken off in the early stages of the 2-2 draw with Chelsea on Wednesday.

"James Morrison is injured and won't be fit for Southampton," said Pulis. "We will have to have a look at Jonas Olsson too.

"Rickie Lambert missed the Chelsea trip through illness. He will be back in contention for the game against Southampton tomorrow."

If the transfer rumour mill wasn't spinning before then it's been sent into overdrive by the transfer bans handed to Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid.

The clubs are banned from registering players for the next two transfer windows, potentially meaning they have to splurge in this month's window to boost their squads.

So who's on the move? Hazard? De Gea? Kane? Stones? Berahino? Pato?

We've collected the best of all the transfer gossip in one place for your reading pleasure.

It's a crucial period in a long season for the newly-promoted Cherries and boss Eddie Howe has an update on his squad's injury situation.

"Every game is the same, they're all pivotal results in the long-term," adds Howe. "We don't want to be scrambling in the last few weeks."

"Callum Wilson is still a long way off. Tommy Elphick is making good progress but we want to make sure he's right. It's small steps.

"Matt Ritchie is 50/50 at this moment for the weekend, he picked up a dead leg against West Ham."

Bournemouth have been one of the most active clubs in the transfer window this month, signing strikers Benik Afobe and Lewis Grabban.

"It's nice to have done early business but it's all relative," says Howe. "We're trying to ensure we have enough strength in depth.

"The squad looks in better shape now I believe, we've got players that can really make a difference."

"The window is a lot crammed into one month and puts pressure on managers. I wouldn't say you enjoy it!"

Bournemouth host Norwich this weekend, with both sides looking to distance themselves from the relegation zone, a place Eddie Howe is keen to avoid.

"We're pleased we're out of the bottom three, that's where we have to stay," he says. "But we could do better, we're a work in progress.

"I felt the last time against Norwich where we lost 3-1 we didn't perform to our standard. We'd like to put that right, we've had some games with them.

"A win would be really important for us. Our home form has been patchy so we want to start a consistent run."
