The second scan for Jofra Archer has shown no serious issues, just bruising and swelling. He’ll continue to work with the medical team on his rehabilitation aiming to be ready for the remaining two Tests. Meanwhile, England have yet to decide on whether they will call-up a replacement for the injured Rory Burns.

Thanks, Jack. Here comes some news....

England didn't bowl very badly there by the way and it's not like South Africa have carted them to all parts - 81 runs in 30 overs is fine.

But England don't seem capable of just having a decent session, with maybe a wicket or two - it's either brilliant or barren.

And it's alarming how quickly they look a bit baffled.

A good tea break needed. Here is Stephan Shemilt to guide you through to the close...

England have to break this partnership. They have given it their best shot. They will have a second new ball available to them late in the evening.

Rassie van der Dussen successfully overturned when given out lbw in the morning session.

After lunch he edged one just short of the slips and was dropped on 43 by Ben Stokes off a tough chance.

He was given a real working over by James Anderson (who weirdly didn't bowl until about an hour into the session) but has battled through.

He remains unbeaten on 46, with Dean Elgar 77 not out.

A superb knock by Elgar, showing up the deficiencies of other top order batsmen in this series.

It's South Africa's session. They have battled away. Van der Dussen has had his moments and had some fortune. For someone in his second Test, it's been a good effort from him.

What's that? England going through a session on an overseas tour without taking a wicket and losing the initiative?

Hello darkness my old friend...

Dean Elgar works it off his pads for a single that brings up a fine 100 partnership between himself and Rassie van der Dussen.

VDD rode his luck a tad earlier before settling down but it's been a supreme display all day by Elgar.

Patient, watchful, disciplined - that century stand took them 222 balls.

Close. Joe Root floats one up slower and wider, drawing Dean Elgar into a rare loose shot. Could've nicked off there.

Elgar clips through mid-wicket, wants two, but thinks better of it and sends his partner back.

Not long to go for this partnership to seal a dominant session.

Not with buffet bowling like that.

A short ball that just sits up and Dean Elgar short-arm pulls through square leg for four.

James Anderson did not have another over in him.

Sam Curran returns.

A poor spell to start the session from the young gun - can he grab a vital wicket before tea?

Oooh that was tight. Dean Elgar jogs the first and is slow coming back, with Sam Curran pinging the throw in.

It's wide and Joe Root has to try and deflect it onto the stumps but misses. Elgar dived but could have been short there with a more accurate throw.

What a way that would've been to go. Dean Elgar rocks back and almost chips a Joe Root half tracker to a close mid-wicket. Wide of the man though and that's a single.

James Anderson angles it in and Rassie van der Dussen just about jabs it away.

An edge all along the ground to gully last up.

Does Jimmy have another over in him?

Then again, Elgar takes an easy single with a guide through backward point.

Feels like Anderson much happier to be bowling at Van der Dussen right now.

Not ideal for England. Rassie van der Dussen punches off the back foot just wide enough of cover to pick up a single and get himself off strike.
