    "We had seen a glimpse of De Villier's brilliance and the shots he can play and I was beginning to worry about him. It wasn't a good run to go for though."

    Has Chris Woakes just won this series for England? AB de Villiers, who was starting to look imperious, is back in the hutch, run out by some athletic brilliance. JP Duminy dropped the ball on the leg side. I don't know who called, but both batsmen set off. Woakes was quick to the ball, diving and throwing in the same movement. ABDV tried to dive, but he was miles short. Huge, huge moment.

    "That was brilliant and just might have won the game. What a wonderful piece of cricket."

    This must be out! AB de Villiers is in huge trouble. A single, Chris Woakes fielding off his own bowling, direct hit. A huge moment...

    Pete Walker: Mo is the cap stealer. He should be number 232!

    Matt Smith: Stokes is 221, Moeen is 232. Moeen needs to organise his kit better

    More cap news. We can confirm that Ben Stokes is England's official 221. Moeen Ali is 232. It's Moeen who forgot his cap/pinched one off Stokes. I'd have thought it would be the other way around.

    Back in the middle, De Villiers drives, then pulls Woakes for back-to-back fours. The Best Batsman In The World (TBBITW for short) is just starting to tick.

    Matt Bodsworth: This is shaping up to be a cracking game of cricket. Who says you need to score 350 to have a good game!!!

    Richard Med-Revell: Catches win matches, optional to England it seems

  8. SA 110-3 (target 263)published at 24 overs

    Excellent, excellent spot, Nick. Many times when I've played cricket, someone will ask "has anyone got a spare cap?" Is it Moeen or Stokes who has forgotten his headwear? Or, like you say, someone might have been on the rob. Do let me know if you've ever, ahem, acquired kit from a cricketer. Anonymity not guaranteed...

    Nick Lovering: In the pic at the top of your screen, both Moeen and Stokes appear to be wearing #221 caps. Who is the cap thief?

    Woakes, who conceded only 13 runs in his first five overs, tests out the middle of the deck to Duminy, who sways, then has a hook for a couple. Good rocks at the Wanderers now, full ground, lights, Castle lager. When Woakes drops short, Duminy cuts for four. The Proteas clawing their way...

    Are you on the way home? Got that Friday feeling? Do let me know. Better yet, send a picture, especially if you're bonding with a fellow commuter over the cricket. Moeen Ali, beard that could sink a ship, over the wicket to ABDV. Nice line, two singles from it.

    Rory Stoves: Over 17 dropped catch Over 18 lost review Over 19 dropped catch Three overs to ruin England's innings, three to let SA get away?

    Guy Morris: 2 dropped catches and an umpire's call LBW not out. Think that's the game right there

    John Gentleman: There's nothing worse than dropped catches whilst queueing in traffic

    Thanks, James. Have we discussed the pink kit-green pad combo South Africa are sporting? Looks odd. Like someone has encased a Starburst in the wrong colour wrapper. Game on at the Bullring, with South Africa rebuilding. Stuart Broad goes to the short-ball well once too often and is pulled for four by JP Duminy.

    "AB has a look in his eyes. Sometimes his team-mates see him at breakfast and say' have you seen AB's eyes?'. The reckon he gets into a zone. You just keep out of the firing line."

  17. SA 91-3 (De Villiers 22, Duminy 6)published at 20 overs

    Duminy is struggling here and Eoin Morgan has his Achilles heel in mind with the introduction of Moeen Ali's off-spin. It's a decent first over, costing just four singles. Time for me to hand back to Stephan Shemilt...

    "The crux will come. What will happen when the spinner bowls? De Villiers likes going after the spinners."

  19. SA 87-3 (target 263)published at 19 overs

    Broad regains control, with just a single off his last three balls. And now we're going to see some spin for the first time...

    "What a wonderful dive to catch it. I was up for that. Has he dropped the match?"
