Nice if we could have won this game, but doesn't matter in the scheme of things. Have seen England win the last game after losing the series in the past. I prefer to think we are being kind and can't be bothered (I know that isn't true, but it helps me sleep at night 
).
).
If , and it's a big IF , we can get them out for 200 - 250 , we can save / win this .
If that's not the kiss of death , what is ?

Not 250, we won't chase 380 on this pitch. We need to bowl them out for a lead of less than 300 to have a chance.
I think we need to forget about winning this one. The best tactic would be to contain their batsmen with defensive fields and strangle a few wickets, but mainly stop them scoring freely. They might play into our hands and try and force the pace to build their lead, but either way, playing for a draw is our best chance of winning.
Amla hurt now, that might help.

Torn between Konta, Murray and cricket....and I have to leave soon for a gym class. Why can't they share these things out.

112-4 but drifting away from us...if we really had any chance at all.
