This is truly pathetic from SA. I knew they were bad but they are making England look world class. Still, it’s a good reward for England’s changed mentality.

Hopefully it encourages England to stick with this approach when it doesn't go this well.

Rather give England credit than say how poor or not poor SA are.

We got a good first innings for the first time in ages, bowlers have done well and read the pitch as not having pace but taking turn.

Bess looks good and Root and Denly as back up has worked.

I like Butler but I’d we had a specialist keeper in we have the nucleus of a good side, not great but good.

Same here.  For some, England only ever lose because they are a poor side and only ever win because the option are awful

England have been good but I think anyone reasonable would agree that the Saffers have been poor.

Not unexpected given the talent drain from SA. Could probably make up a better Test XI from Kolpaks and players on the T20 circuit.

Love this from Maharaj, they're never going to win it so go down swinging.

Worst SA batting line up ever - the last pair having a bit of fun and out doing the top order.

Joe Root started the day dreaming of a 5 fer but that didn't quite happen for him.
He did claim a Test bowling record (albeit a joint one).

He has the world record equalled for the most runs in a Test over.
It is now held between 3 players - James Anderson, Robin Peterson & Joe Root.

They aren't bowling at the stumps.
