  2. SA 186-5published at 91 overs

    A few yelps from Sam Curran as Rassie van der Dussen leaves a couple of deliveries the England young gun reckons were too close to the stumps to be doing so.

    A man with a mallet comes out to bash down some foot holes that Stuart Broad isn't happy with.

    Stuart Broad raises his arms in exasperation of couple of times, reckoning he wasn't far from a wicket. Puppy dog enthusiasm still in abundance.

    Sir Ian Botham was one on of his charity walks and the route was scheduled to take him past my daughter's primary school, St. Joseph's in Oxford.

    On the same day, the Queen was visiting the local hospital nearby so the schedule was changed and the children, who had raised money and were waiting on the road with "good luck" banners, missed him.

    A school governor made contact to donate the cheque for the money the school had raised and just mentioned how disappointed they were to have missed him.

    Through his own volition, Sir Ian said he would come to the school to collect the cheque personally as he was sorry he had disappointed the children who had raised the money.

    A few weeks later, he came to the school's Friday assembly, which parents were allowed to attend, and which was suddenly attended by an unusually large number of fathers.

    It was a fantastic morning. Sir Ian spent a couple of hours answering questions from the children, signing every autograph and even doing local media interviews - he could not have been nicer and more accommodating to the children, teachers and parents. Every single request was satisfied.

    He then went to "Fat Phil's Angling Centre" in Oxford to collect more money raised for him.

    Target 438

    Van der Dussen flicks fine down the leg side for four. Slightly ungainly but a boundary is a boundary.

    England have got 21 minutes to go, for Esther's sake.

    Getting that essay done in time now would be up there with Pieter Malan's effort today.

    Go well.

    They've got Van der Dussen on the run. That was a nothing shot.

  10. SA 179-5published at 11:36 Greenwich Mean Time 7 January 2020

    Rassie van der Dussen has just played one of the most unconvincing pull shots of all time.

    A tame, late swash at it and the ball deflects off a thick outside edge, just past the stumps and out of Jos Buttler's reach for a streaky four.

    England have a few words for him after that but the Laurence Fox impersonator just smiles.

    I'd play Jofra and rest one of the other seamers. It depends on the pitch.

    What do they do if Archer is fit for the next Test?

  13. SA 175-5published at 87 overs

    Sam Curran starts with a slower ball to Quinton de Kock, the way he dismissed the South Africa wicketkeeper in the first innings.

    He makes a bit of a mess of this one though - a low full toss on the pads that De Kock clips away for four.

    That's a great catch. Stokes is like a Botham in there at second slip. He makes things happen.

    That's a critical wicket. It was an excellent innings from Pieter Malan. There's Stokes again, taking the catch at second slip. It climbed more than Malan expected.

    Malan c Stokes b Curran 84 (SA 171-5)

    BIG.

    That is a peach from Sam Curran and it needed to be to remove Pieter Malan from such a supreme knock.

    Curran angles it across from over the wicket, it lifts up at Malan, who plays at it but the ball deflects away higher up the bat than he wanted.

    Ben Stokes gets down superbly to take a fine low catch.

    Well played, Malan. Could that start a flurry for England?

  20. SA 171-4published at 11:24 Greenwich Mean Time 7 January 2020

    Stuart Broad gets one to lift off a length and hit Rassie van der Dussen in the stomach.

    That wasn't even off this infamous crack.

    England would love more deliveries to misbehave.
