Anderson comes in for England in place of Woakes, a much depleted/changed team for the Saffers. England win toss and will bat first. C'mon the lads!!
Good batting day and Hales and Compton are attacking after lunch. This really should be a big total for England.
Worrying collapse from England. Root gets to 50 yet again and fails. He's a great talent but he must start to convert 50s into centuries. Must be a concentration thing.
Past 300 now and 65 off the last 10 overs. Could be fun tomorrow morning if these two are still together.
Close at 317 for 5, very solid and two fast scorers in. SA attack and captaincy looking like a shambles.
Very good from Stokes and Bairstow. England in a good position going into day 2. Another 100+ runs and they will be right on top.
317-5 is a sound start and with a long tail 500 isn't out of the question. Just because they have injuries doesn't mean SA are not competitive, we'll still have to earn a win and it won't be a gimme...
