    Huge appeal!

    Ooh, Ollie Robinson likes this lbw shout against Rassie van der Dussen, but it looks high and leg side, and there's not even a hint of a review.

  2. SA 59-3published at 23.4 overs

    Down the leg side from Ollie Robinson, the ball keeping low, and it bounces over Ben Foakes' gloves and away for four byes.

    Ooft. Robinson follows up with a massive no-ball.

    When the crowd start singing, roaring, that's why I used to love playing in England. There's a real drive behind England.

    Trail by 210

    Stuart Broad wafts his hand about, asking the crowd to give him some noise, and they roar approvingly as he just beats the outside edge of Rassie van der Dussen.

    I've never seen a man more aware of his own memeable presence.

    This is a surprise. Rassie van der Dussen has a metal splint on his index finger, I didn't think we'd see him bat today but here he comes. This is a brave display.

    Do you know, that wicket was very close to another no-ball...

    Rassie van der Dussen is coming out to bat.

    I wonder how much trouble that finger will cause.

    Markram has been out twice now in a few minutes. It really has been England's morning, the seamers have been imperious.

    Markram c Crawley b Broad 6 (SA 54-3)

    It's not a no-ball!

    Lovely work from umpire Chris Gaffaney, who gives Stuart Broad a thumbs up before he can start his celebration. It's a poor shot from Aiden Markram in truth, pushing away from his body, sending a thick edge through to Zak Crawley at second slip.

  11. Postpublished at 12:07 British Summer Time 27 August 2022

    Rassie van der Dussen, who didn't field due to a finger injury, is padded up, but he's got a massive split on said finger on his left hand. It's not ideal for South Africa.

    Stuart Broad will carry on post-drinks.

    That's a great shout from Greg.

    Keegan Petersen is in a bit of strife after fending an Ollie Robinson delivery off his hip. He clutches it slightly at the non striker's end as Robinson continues tormenting Aiden Markram's off stump.

  15. SA 52-2published at 21.1 overs

    Ollie Robinson opens up his latest over with a no-ball of his own.

    In happier news, here's how Ollie Robinson dismissed Sarel Erwee a little earlier on.

    Stuart Broad's still complaining, by the way.

    I mean, it was a marginal call, but, you know. Just keep your foot behind the line?

  18. SA 49-2published at 21 overs

    Trail by 215

    Aiden Markram had been bowled by a delivery that just - and I mean just - flicked the bail off.

    Broad's face when he found out it was a no-ball was an absolute picture, as I'm sure regular readers can imagine...

  19. SA 45-2published at 20.5 overs

    Predictably, Aiden Markram then flicks his next delivery for four.

    A few seconds ago, he was out for a duck. Cricket.

    That's not the first time that's happened in this match! Markram was a third of the way back to the dressing rooms there.
