Not at all, this is still proper, 5 & 6 scoring fast.

Will we get the elusive 400 in a first innings?

Made it to 400!

However, I've just read that two of England's last three 400+ first innings totals led to innings defeats!!!
 
Entertaining from Curran, but surely he could have stayed around to help Pope get to three figures?

Shame he got out when he did, but Curran playing like he did will have taken the pressure off Pope.

Great for Pope to get his first hundred. He's a proper batsman and will get many more, I reckon.

Yep. He looks the real deal.
 
Brutal batting by England today....
Currently 489/8 and wood is seriously targeting the fastest 50 ever, 35 from 19 balls so far....

Batting SA out the game.....pope is a real find...

Fantastic hitting from Wood.
Out for 42.

499-9 declared.

Now Wood can roar in at 90mph plus!
 
Well done England, a convincing win away from home a rare thing in modern Test cricket between relatively well matched teams. I’d love to see a tense 5 day draw in the final test.

Yep. Progress for England to win away from home on wickets not offering much along with the kookaburra ball.
 
England win the toss and bat in the 4th Test. Archer failed a fitness Test, so Woakes comes on for Bess. Root has really handled Archer poorly.
