Stumps day 3. England needs 255 to win with 9 wickets in hand.
Ball is 41 overs old so scoring should be ok till the next new ball.
IF we can be 60 overs down the line with 7 wickets remaining got a chance of winning.

Another certain defeat for England with a pitiful score in their second innings.

We're becoming very consistent. Every batting innings a collapse and several poor bowling sessions every match.

Good recovery. If we can not throw away any early wickets we could well do this.

Any half-decent batting line up should fancy themselves to reach the total in the time left. So you are probably right.

Yep, lets put it like this.

I would be highly surprised.

I expect that they are too busy celebrating their New Year's Honours to worry about such trivia.

Morgan, Stokes and Bayliss receiving honours I can understand but what have Root and Buttler done to warrant being honoured?

Well you only have to be able to bake a cake whilst being Muslim to receive one of these nowadays.

Joe Root is a great bat, but useless as captain - tactically inept.

A predictable loss and England have started another series away from home with an embarrassing defeat against a South Africa team a pale shadow of their teams in the past.In actual fact South Africa had lost their last 5 tests prior to the England game.

As has been said for years, over-rated and overpaid.
