England did well considering the heat and illness we have had. Understand Leach is still I’ll but I wonder if we were going in with 5 seamers anyway to cover stokes and Anderson a bit.

South Africa’s day for me with 250 plus on a wicket that seems to have movement.

Looks like an interesting test match but I wonder how many of us really think we will bat past their score

Was going to ask the same thing lol. Both very good deliveries tbh both bounced sharply and made the batters play and Rabada bowling at good pace. If only we have that!!

What’s the deal with Kolpak post the GE? Will these South Africans be returned to sender?

Got a bit of James Pattinson about him, looks pretty similar in terms of action and looks pumped up too

Enjoyable session that, Root and Denly toughed that one out pretty well. Would like another 100 from them before even thinking we're not entirely screwed

70-3, Root out to a poor shot.
We may have a new coach, but this is the same old England...

Denly proving for me the number 3 we need. At least trying to hang in there till the ball gets older.

Root is same old same old when we need him. He is still our best but struggles to do both jobs

Denly could easily have bagged a duck. He's a very limited player. He's trying his best but he's not someone that will ever pull up any trees

Cupboard of gun number 3 bats is notably bare, so Denly is doing just fine! Holding us together at the moment.
