good effort from Devilliers 'finding holes in their bowling attack' Big hole he found.

A Hole maybe

I don't disgree, but why wasn't he first in line to the throne when Peterson retired?
No idea mate. They seemed to try a collection of middle order batsmen at the top of the innings. Bizarre

Pretty AB was gunning for Anderson...and Anderson failed to show much thus far anyway

What a moment for Stephen Cook. Hundred on debut. 100th batsman to do so on debut.

Village from Duminy, how does he keep getting selected? i bet he was that kid growing up who got selected for representative sides for having a fit mum or helped pick up all the cones and bibs

I guess Duminy was selected on this occasion as du Plessis isn't exactly offering much more. And Duminy can lolly pop down a few offies

Well, we didn't exactly keep the pressure on there then!!!  Should've kept the old ball :)

Need to have a plan B when this starts happening!

5/329 South Africa ahead at the moment. If Bavuma and de Kock get them up to 400-450 they'll probably be happy. England probably a wicket away from getting out for 350-375. Important first session tomorrow

Agreed, looks a long tail without Morris bowling.

Seems standard practice now, let's try some middle order guys before giving proper openers a chance because, you know, they are slow

You probably know the reason he keeps getting picked and the real reason he's picked in this test ahead of faf.. Probably got nothing to do with fit mum, rich dad...........
