What an incredible batting performance by the South African side. Skipper's knock was phenomenal.

Absolutely, good to see Bavuma back among the runs after what must have been an absolutely torrid state to be in. Well played SA

Jeeeesus, that's painful from Duckett. Cracking player but I'm not convinced this is his format. Sam Hain crying out for a debut for years now...

Proper old school grind this is.
Also the Saffas have the slowist over rate ever.

If the commentary is right that one of the SA fielders has been shouting "no" when the English batters hit the ball then that should be a fine at minimum. No different to fake fielding, it's cheating.

It is covered under the same law as fake fielding - dead ball, any runs completed or started count and 5 penalty runs to the batting side, offending player reported.

Malan is a gun, looks like he's forcing himself into the ODI side next.

Disappointing if umpires haven't caught something then.

Does Malan displace Roy if Bairstow is back and fit? I can't see them dropping Root at 3 and Bairstow was in such absurd form with the bat before getting injured.

Unbelievable from Buttler and Malan to put on 230odd. Some comeback from 14-3.

Jofra easing back in and building up speeds nicely. Let’s hope that continues and he can stay fit for a good while

Easing back in with a 6fer, can think of worse ways to get back into the groove!

That'd be interesting - Malan, Bairstow, Root, Brook....is that not just the Yorkshire side?

More likely to play golf than for Yorkshire these days.
