surprised no one given the analysis of Bailey has picked up on Amla's technique. He's also closed off (not as much though). Just cost him his wicket though as his hips etc squared him up

England gotta make a decision about who's the leader of their attach soon. Steven Finn is bowling like a legend and at 26 is the future. Anderson looks to be on the slide. Broad is a bit hot and cold.

England smelling blood now surely must fancy getting SA for 250-300 now.

300-350 is considered a good score in Johannesburg

Other than Finn , who's been outstanding, the bowling looks pretty flat, and potentially still a decent amount of batting to come.

No one.

Anderson is a bit 'meh' and bowling to short, Broad the same. Stokes has got lucky tbh with his wickets as he's looked meh. Mo, had to go into hiding after his AB assault and didn't threaten at all and only 'contained' due to around the wicket and loads of leg side fielders (perfectly valid to test the patience)

Not much to come from SA really, suppose they might have a good day but the wicket is offering enough that England if they bowl full should get them out easily enough IMO

Sounds like from Finn's earlier spell he deserved another though. Good to see him back in the side and at his best.
