Stokes now has the highest score by an England player batting at  number 6 or lower beating the 178 scored by Hick in 1993.

And smashed gibbs balls to 200 record by 58 balls!!

Amla's uninspiring captaincy shows no signs of improving. The decision when the second new ball was taken and the removal of the third slip(Stokes edges the next ball through there). Since then Amla has been reacting to wherever the ball has been hit. He's just not a strong captain. Bowling has been shocking as well, don't understand why they keep pounding it in half way down. Cape Town is a pitch up to the batsmen ground.

Because like any village player they are now scared to grt hit over the top

So what's the plan now?

Bat on until at least tea and wither declare then or even overnight with 600/650+ on the board

Skittle then out for 200 put them back in, skittle them out again and win it by lunch on day 4?

That may well be the case but of you take the new ball and then proceed to have 5 men on the rope after 3 balls, it's hardly giving the bowlers any confidence is it?
