Dan, I'm with you. No cricket, no party. We all go to huge lengths to keep up with the Test score. When Alex Tudor made 99 as nightwatchman, I phoned home from a school trip and had to explain to my sister than the scorecard was on Ceefax page 341. Anderson looks closer to the groove, hooping it around under the grey. Van Zyl beaten, Amla leaves. Good example of the difference between the two batsmen.

Looking again, it didn't actually bounce that much. Elgar played it about waist high. The illusion of bounce came because Bairstow took it above his head. It really was wide, Elgar was playing miles away from his body. Hashim Amla the new man. One of two who hold the key for South Africa, you fancy.

"That's 325 Test wickets now for Stuart Broad. He's caught up with Bob Willis, joint third on the all-time England wicket-takers list."

"It was a wonderful delivery and the plan worked. Elgar was playing it off the back foot but it bounced and left him a fraction. He could have left it, he should have left it, but it drew him away from his body."

Neil: Horrible thing to say, but is Jimmy past it?

MixItNFixItMan: Jimmy is lacking match fitness after his injury, that is obvious. It doesn't mean he's past it.

Francis Edwards: Anderson hate coming after two games being out of form after an injury. Would you really prefer Woakes to Jimmy? REALLY?

Will the real James Anderson please stand up? Jimmy is still searching for that post-calf-injury rhythm, but there were signs before the break that the nip might be back. It was definitely back this morning when I was defrosting the car. Ooohhh, Van Zyl turns one past short leg, but it's past James Taylor in a flash.

"That was a good over from Broad. He had a lovely rhythm, bowled it where he wanted, drew the batsman forward a few times. If you put it in the right spot often enough, the ball will do something."

Van Zyl, who might not have been playing in this match had Quinton de Kock been fit, chews his gum as he waits for the round-the-wicket Broad. Angled in. Off stump and around. To play or not to play. The left-hander, who has been allergic to runs this series, gets through a maiden.

Andy Wales: I presume when Elgar takes his guard, he's composing himself?

Players back out after the break, into the Johannesburg gloom. Stuart Broad to Stiaan van Zyl. Three slips and a gully.

If you're interested, Brendon McCullum and Daniel Vettori would be in there too. That's four. Will give the other seven some thought.

Now then, good morning to you. Stephan Shemilt in the chair, taking over after some sterling work from James Gheerbrant.

An excellent lunch break that - Herschelle Gibbs on TMS and memories of Mike Atherton and Jack Russell on the TV. In my favourite cricketers XI, Atherton would skipper and Russell would keep.

Neil: Horrible thing to say but is Jimmy past it?

John M Butt: I know Anderson is a wonderful bowler. He is yet to turn up in this match. Either turn up next session or back to 1st Test team.

Former South Africa batsman Herschelle Gibbs on TMS: "This match is poised for an unbelievable finish."

Ben Turner: Next hour SO key. Would be glorious to see Jimmy steamroll their top order like days of the past.

Ex-South Africa batsman Herschelle Gibbs's advice for Alex Hales: "First-class cricket is where you learn to play - you can't score enough hundreds in first-class cricket.

"But I would never tell anybody to restrict themselves from their natural instincts."

Former South Africa batsman Herschelle Gibbs on TMS: "We didn't share any beverages after the game in the changing room. We met in the hotel bar an hour or two later and got it on there.

"Punter (Australia captain Ricky Ponting) gave them the biggest tongue-lashing because they couldn't defend 400. I would have loved to have been a fly on the wall."
