  1. Good morning

    After an all-action day one, everything is set up for another thrilling day at Old Trafford.

    England will resume on 111-3 after bowling South Africa out for 151 under gloomy skies yesterday.

    It's a very different scene in Manchester today. The sun is shining, the skies are blue and there is barely a cloud to be seen. Perfect conditions for batting. Can England take advantage and build a big first-innings lead?
