Brilliant stuff no question.
Broad is very good at using a pitch and honestly the catching was brilliant too.
Less than 100 for the win?
Was not expecting this to end on day 3....

Great take to bowl and catch duplessis
Broad takes 6
Saturday lead only 73.
Broad stokes and root.... sensational stuff

I am assuming with 7 runs per man needed we can't lose.
Just push a few singles... or send out stokes.
Cook and Hayless job is to take skin off ball.

Should be more than enough time to finish today. What is there, 25 overs or so? Can't they extend if looks like it'll be won in the day as well in lasst 30 mins?

So, how close can England come to throwing this one away from an almost impossible position.
My guess is win by 4 wickets

Cook on 16... double the required rate.
Hales stuck on 5 like a nervy maiden waiting for first 100.
Get a move on man
52 to win.

Sa have given england 7 extras..
Second highest score it seems.
35 to win for England.
Now each guy needs less than 4 runs more.
Hales might struggle to get it

Ah here we go hales gets a 4.... 31 to win.
Hales on 9 means he's done his job.
Can he just open the stance and smash them now

Nope....even in this position he fails. At least we will have a free test to try something else with no pressure.
England win by 7 wickets, that's a good win down there.
Has to be remembered that SA are somewhat in transition after the Smith/Kallis era and also missing the best pace bowler on the planet
