  1. 'The game has changed'published at 17:45 British Summer Time 18 August 2022

    Stumped

    There was a special guest on this week's Stumped podcast: West Indies legend Chris Gayle!

    The self-proclaimed 'Universe Boss' is the ambassador for a new white-ball tournament called 'The 6ixty', which takes place in the Caribbean next week.

    He certainly had some interesting things to say about the rise of franchise cricket and the future of some of the longer forms of the game.

    "What the people need to understand is that the game has changed," said the 42-year-old. "It’s business-orientated now. We’ve talked about The 6ixty, you can see it with The Hundred as well. The game is spreading more to the business side of things.

    "It’s beneficial to the players as well. You have to look at that too. We have to look at the bigger picture. It’s all about business. The whole ‘Gentleman’s game’ kind of changed a bit. It’s not really that gentleman’s sport we used to have. It’s a business sport and you’re going to have people pumping money into these new events. The players are going to have to choose what they want to do."

    Time for a breather.

    There's still a minimum of 23 overs left in the day's play.

    Crawley was like a tiger at extra cover, pouncing all over it.

  4. SA 202-5published at 60 overs

    Lead by 37

    A leaping Zak Crawley does well to stop a vicious cut shot from Kyle Verreynne and that helps Jack Leach wheel his way through a maiden.

    It's amazing what a change of field can do. Jansen doesn't seem sure whether he should be coming forward or going back.

  6. SA 201-5published at 59 overs

    Lead by 36

    Stuart Broad rattles the outside edge of Marco Jansen, finding a bit of extra bounce as the ball thumps into Ben Foakes' gloves, but it's a no ball.

    Ben Stokes senses a moment and when you sense a moment, Stuart Broad is a good man to go to.

    Ben Stokes' heroic stint is over.

    Here's Stuart Broad.

    Verreynne will be more proactive against the spinner, he won't let him settle.

  10. SA 200-5published at 58 overs

    Lead by 35

    Jack Leach's main job here will be to stifle the runs at his end and keep the pressure on.

    That's too short, though, and Kyle Verreynne hops onto it and cracks it off the back foot and down to the boundary rope for four.

    An exciting passage of play for England, in many ways dragging themselves back into the contest.

    Ben Stokes doesn't look comfortable but he is really bending his back to drag England back into this match here.

    He looks pumped.

    In the old toast rack. He'll have a little medal there in the morning.

    That's almost taken him out, it's like a boxer taking a punch to the solar plexus. A nasty one.

  16. SA 193-5published at 56.2 overs

    Oof.

    Ben Stokes gets one to spit off the pitch and smack Kyle Verreynne right in the chest. Aggressive stuff from the England skipper.

  17. Postpublished at 17:30 British Summer Time 18 August 2022

    It is a little and large combo as the diminutive Kyle Verreynne comes out to join the towering Marco Jansen.

    The crowd have been woken from their post-tea slumber.

    That one really nipped down the hill, a lovely bit of bowling. Ben Stokes does make things happen and England like getting themselves in a hole and then fighting back.

    A red, a red and a red. Hitting the top of leg stump. Stokes knew it, it was a bellowing appeal.
